Is it really February already?
What happened to January? Just kidding I know - we celebrated my dad's 60th, Jeff's holiday party, I was in Milwaukee for the sales awards, we went out with our Mothers & More pals, Jeff started teaching confirmation classes, Cooper has hosted plenty of playdates & yesterday I hosted an Arbonne Spa party. So as usual, the days just fly by with tons of fun, friends and activity!
I am happy to report I have been working on my goals for the new year steadily. In fact I finished the book "Eat, Pray, Love" today and have already started my February book. Few books have inspired me as much as EPL, even though I feel as if everyone else read this book a year ago, this was the perfect time for me to pick it up. I needed to do something different with my life and this book has truly made it happen! I am even surprising myself with my reactions to people and situations lately. The inspiration continues all the way til the last line of the book:
"In the end, maybe it's wiser to surrender before the miraculous scope of human generosity and to just keep saying thank you, forever and sincerely, for as long as we have voices."
Thank you Elizabeth Gilbert, I was skeptical when I saw you on Oprah, but now I am forever indebted.
