Interesting weekend, productive, yet lazy, happy, yet grumpy. Sometimes when you want to accomplish something you have to bring up or deal with some CRAP. But I'm grateful for the crap because is it a means to an end, it is part of the puzzle of life. (Funny that Crap begins with a "C" too).
1. Creating space - We decided to rearrange a lot of our furniture in our cottage, needed to gain some space. Grumbling about lack of space hasn't worked, you see. As we shifted things around, the space got more cluttered, more clogged up, before it got better (a bit like a cold, see below!). It was frustrating in the middle of the project, and at times the solution of "where to put things" didn't seem clear. In the end, we made our home feel much more spacious, and energy can flow properly now. I got tired of complaining that our house was "too small!" Now I can say that it is spacious, light, and enough room to enjoy my life. And I plan to manifest more of all that!
2. Colds - I have one, yes. It's been coming on for a few days. Ugh. My son brings colds home from pre-school (some of the kids attend with horrendous, snotty, coughy colds, and no one seems to mind!). Crap is coming UP and OUT of my sinuses, there's a definite theme of crap-dealing-with here... Well, I'm not happy about the cold, but fighting it means being "anti-cold" and maybe that will end up prolonging it!? I will just accept it and be one with it (oh dear me, I sound nuts). But I am choosing to find the thing to be grateful for about the cold. It causes me to sit more still, take better care of myself, and reassess what I might be doing to create dis-ease in my body. Always a chance to reflect, and that's a good thing!
3. Conversations - My dear husband and I had a few this weekend, as I was determined to talk about the direction our life is taking. We have some big decisions to make soon, and we were ignoring that fact (it has felt like ignoring the proverbial "elephant in the middle of the room."). We both got grumpy, as sometimes it isn't easy to express what it is we are feeling. Feelings don't always allow themselves to be described in mere words. Needless to say, some CRAP came out. Well, we finally got to the root of things, albeit it took until midnight Sunday night to get there. SO having conversations, really working the crap out in words, is wonderful.
However, my sore throat today is telling me to hold off having any more just yet!
