So I’m having one of those really rough mornings, the kind that make you realize you have to rethink the whole life project, and it’s not even 7 a.m. yet.
What’s going on?
- DH came home from work to start vacation, and is completely, totally sick.
- Mom-in-law and stove repairperson scheduled to arrive at the same time today, one at home, one at airport.
- During a snowstorm.
- During my daughters’ Tae Kwon Do belt test.
- While I should be looking for the Bratz Chloe Makeup Doll that the girl of our Angel Tree family had on her wish list, maybe at KMart.
- And that 8,000 word chapter, a few weeks overdue, must be finished today.
I know that if I were to tweet my work-life expert colleagues/friends, they would all say the same thing to me:

Consider what’s most important.
Let a few things go (for now).
Try thinking 10 -10- 10.
Revel in what matters most.

Off for a Merry Christmas, and all the very best to you- cv
