Rain Rain Go Away ...

Another day which I spent with my mother looking at flowers for our backyard while the whole time I was thinking of what else I could be working on for Therapy in Transition. I need to email Kelli, I need to email Laura, I need to contact Sandy ... I need ... I need ... I need ... I need to just enjoy my time with my mother! So I did. I let go of the list of a 1000 things which could be occupying my time and mind and just focused on trees, shrubs, petunias, and hostas. It was wonderful.

Now that I am home and the plants are now waiting until the rain stops so I can go outside to plant them - I am now getting to the mental list of the to dos. I am excited as we decided to let Kelli know she is the one we are going to be working with regarding the establishing our identity.

My father was going to put the doors on the practicum room while here but now that he is able to 'see' the space he feels to make it look right and add value to our home I should go with a customized door builder/installer. So now my to do list has just gotten longer and this becomes a higher priority than original thought. The reason as it comes back to what I discussed earlier ... location. In order to have clients come to my home I need a space which not only offers them a safe space but also the privacy and confidentiality that they and I both deserve. It also will allow my husband/family to continue their lives with minimal interruption.

Another item which has just been added is adding a second line to our phone - one which is dedicated to the business so the rest of my family and household do not have to worry about answering it and I do not have to worry about a client calling for the first time hearing - 'Hey' when they call instead of 'Therapy in Transition, Karen speaking'.

As well this morning the company which I have been consulting with for the last three years has now opened the discussion of a more permanent position with them and asked for me to think about what position I would like to hold. So for the next three days I am trying to put together how my life is going to look if I accept this new permanent position and if I am able to continue the balancing act or if I ultimately need to cut myself loose from it. Ironically my husband just accepted a new position at a new company which alleviates the need for me to really bring in any income while I get Therapy in Transition up and running fully.

So figuring out which pieces of my life's puzzle fit on which side of the balance and how they positively or negatively affect my over all goal truly begins. What fun!

So off to my emails ... off to try and find a door guy ... off to return phone calls ...

Thanks for reading. Embrace your inner wisdom!

Until next time, I'm in gratitude for all you do.
