Holiday Challenge, Days 12 & 13
Dec. 4th, 2007 06:54 pmI am grateful:
1) that I got to experience being around a group of people I didn't know and feeling comfortable and enjoying myself.
2) that I can always trust certain friends to take things to the next level :D
3) to feel acknowledged and accepted by L's friends.
4) that L cares enough to ask important questions and to listen to the answers.
5) that I have made noticeable progress in the past 3 months.
6) that I had a really good therapy session today.
7) for all the opportunities I am getting to learn and grow, and the supportive environment to grow in.
8) for pats on the back.
9) for friends who show up when they say they will, and who let me know when they won't. Also, for friends who take care of themselves.
10) for my car, but also grateful that I have the resources to replace it.
11) that the concert was wonderful, and well received.
12) for Shakti Rising.
13) for my boss and my supervisor.
Yesterday-- Work was work, and I got to go off with L. for almost two hours for lunch. I got a call from Shakti asking if I wanted to be an apprentice, and I said 'not now', but the answer is actually 'no'. They have a wonderful concept, but it's not made for people who have to live in the world yet. Then, I went to class at Shakti, which was awesome! I got to learn more about different herbs, and we made herbed butter and other stuff, and it was fun. I was a little sad that the other girls were not interested in being social as we did it. There's a cold going around Sunshine House, and a bit of darkness at the moment. I will continue doing the Living the Seasons class, but I will pass on the rest for now.
Today-- Worked late, in exchange for time off for Dr's appt. I love that they are willing to be flexible. My probation ends on Thursday, so we met this morning to talk about my review and next steps. It was all very positive, and focused on what I want out of my work and where I want to go from here. They want to help me get into a graduate program. And they'll be promoting me as soon as they can. :-D
