Continuing the work to become the best Lee I can be, daring to ask for more.
these days my gall bladder surgery, initially scheduled for september, then october is now moved to january. i’m doing my best to avoid any 2AM attacks – no dairy, no spicy.
these days i took a beading class with a friend and now i have a wholesale order in with a local supplier. guess what everyone is getting this holiday season?
these days thanksgiving was low-key. my boys came home to hang out with me and the pups. we ordered chinese take-out for the “big” meal. i am thankful for not having to cook!
these days canvases have been relocated and hung in the basement and my jellyfish prints have (finally) been hung up. it has taken a while but the little projects are getting done and the house is coming together. an endless work in progress.
these days a new alarm system with cameras (very fancy) has been installed. it took a while but it’s all up and running.
these days i’m feeling gloriously sleep deprived as i revel in emotions i never thought i’d have a chance to feel again. i’m blessed, grateful, happy and scared. feeling again is a marvelous thing. #loveyoutoo
these days i’ve put together an editorial calendar through the end of 2020. after that i’ll decide what i’m going to do here on the www. after more than a decade, it might be time to change things up around here.
these days i’ve ordered one of everything from my online shop: HERE. i’m happy with the quality. the scarves are enormous and the gridded notebooks are the perfect size for in my purse. really, there’s not one thing that is even close to a disappointment. half of it disappeared when my boys came home.
these days i went down a photo album rabbit hole in search of one particular photo i was afraid i wouldn’t find. i found it! i also found oodles of others. my goodness i was glorious back in the day (circa 1988). one memory lead to another, so many stories, so much joy and tears.
these days i’ve discontinued all but four magazine subscriptions (the maritime [edit], breathe, bella grace, and experience life). the best way to keep the clutter and piles from coming in the house is by not encouraging it. (i’ve also cancelled all of those ‘mystery box’ subscriptions.)
these days i laugh at my ridiculous mistakes. case in point: i took caden to see a show in downtown toronto and automatically thought it was at one theatre – it was not. the show was missed but a lovely lunch was enjoyed.
these days plans are underway for a desire map workshop that i’m facilitating at the space oakville in november. i’m excited and nervous. i’m looking forward to spreading the idea of core desired feelings. i know a lot of people will greatly benefit from this way of looking at and managing their world.
these days i voted in the advanced polls to avoid the crush of election day. it worked out very well. i’ll likely do that from now on.
these days block timing has always worked well for me. my routine on many fronts changed in september and i’m trying to work out what suits my new situation best. it took a few weeks but i believe i’ve figured it out – until something else changes.
these days marie forleo’s everything is figureoutable (book and workshop) confirms everything i know to be true, now to pick a project – just one. linda sivertsen‘s book proposal magic course has been simultaneously terrifying and galvanizing. kerstin martin‘s asking for impossible things workshop is incredibly inspiring as well as motivating. elise blaha cripe’s new book big dreams daily joys is everything she promised and more – testament to show up and be yourself. i’m in inspiration overload – my most favourite place.
You? What are you up to these days?
