Today is the Greatest Day I've Ever Known
Why you didn't get your regularly scheduled post today
Hey All,
Time got away from me last week. I started to feel guilty and wanted to push myself to get this post done before Monday so I could have something ready to go.
And I stopped and I thought, why? It’s important for building consistency, yes. But, it was also because I felt obligated. That’s the opposite of what this year is about, so I allowed myself the space to not write on a deadline. I’ll get my posts back up.
What caused me to get off schedule?
That’s what I want to share with you today instead!
I have done interviews with - Dolores (already live!), Tony Pence (going live Wednesday), Audrey (pronounced Au-dray) Hausig/Crash (going live next week) and Rachel Taft (the week after).
I did an interview with my friend Marcus Wells today, but Zoom defeated me so we had to reschedule. I did an interview with my friends in the band Dollar Signs before their show in Richmond (got live video of a new song!).
I started baking. I’ve made bagels, 3 loafs of bread and I’m on my way to making Pizza Crust!
I’m making more fun meals! And shooting fun videos with our dogs. I’m taking the time to play video games that I said I would play when I had the time.
I’m doing laundry and dishes regularly too. And sweeping and mopping. But I’m on the phone, something I’m notoriously bad at. I talk to my friends and reconnect. I forgot how important having a healthy social life is to my mental health.
So today, I’m sitting outside on a laptop with my dogs and just letting you know that I’m still alive and still working on content. But reminding myself that if I am really doing this for me, that I need to respect my own boundaries and work at my own pace.
That said, I really appreciate that people are reading this and engaging with what I’m saying. It means a lot to me that I have people in my life who care that much. So, thank you.
Today I’m just being grateful for the good in my life and I wanted to share that with all of you.
No playlist, cause those take a lot of time. I’ll get back to it on Friday’s post, which hopefully will be a good one. I had a request for my take on commissioned sales. I’ve got some thoughts on diversity compliance. I’ve got a lot of thoughts still, don’t worry. If you know me at all, you know that’s something I’ve got a lot of.
