Letting Go



Let go of that which does not serve you.  This has become my new mantra.  There were a couple of really stressful moments this week and after a particularly rough day, I did some yoga for stress relief.  During the video, Adriene mentioned this mantra and it really resonated with me.  I hang on to things and dwell on them, letting them ruin my hour, day, weeks, or years.  I’m determined to stop this horrible routine of mine.  I need to let go of those things that I cannot change, because you know what stressing out or getting mad over it will do?  Nothing.

The Taste of Fall

All of a sudden it’s fall.   It’s like a switch was flipped.   The nights are cooler (well, I think they’re down right cold) and the days are shorter.   I’m wearing light jackets, and thoroughly enjoying the new trench coat the I picked up back in August.   Today I had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season.   And, it was amazing.   I’m so excited that fall is here.   I just love all the spices and flavors in fall seasonal food.   I’m looking forward to trying out some very delicious looking recipes that I’ve been saving for cooler weather, and partaking in some fall-ish activties.   I just hope it doesn’t get too cold too soon!

Hello October and PSLs!

Now that it's officially October, I'm allowing myself to drink pumpkin spice latte's, and it has truly made my Monday morning a little brighter.  I love how the little things, can make me stop and smell the roses, or coffee, in this case.  It is the start of a new month, and a new week, and for me, the start of quarter end!  I'm going to need a lot more coffee!  LOL. Over the last few weeks, I have really been tested at work.  I can tell that people are being put in front of me so that I can grow and work past some things in my life.  Like, how I can't control everything.  And, no matter what job I work in, there will always be challenging people that I need to work and partner with.   I read something recently that kind of put it into perspective.  Gold, when found in nature, is encased in rock and must be manually removed.  I don't know the science behind it, but these rocks must be crushed, chemically treated, and heated t...
