Life has been a world wind lately, I was asked to do "task force" for Marriott at a property in Des Moines, Iowa, of which I accepted and then left 3 days later... so there is that, on top of 2 weddings, applying for transfers, packing, and moving. I'm not sure what exactly possessed me to mix my life up a little (or a lot) and spend the month in Iowa, where I know exactly no one, but it has really been fun, and an adventure non-the-less. The next adventure of my life will be decided this week, of which I am so excited, nervous, shocked at. More to come on that when it is official.. or not, we shall see :). Regardless of where I am, I will be getting the every exciting task of finding a new place to live and then decorating!! Oh how I love decorating. (no sarcasm..none)
As part of my adventures around Downtown Des Moines, I stumbled upon 3 antique stores, of which I could have bought out. My mind was racing with ideas, new thoughts of how I would place things in my place, wherever that might be. In the end, all though I so desperately wanted to ship back a few doors, old windows, and about 34 different pieces of furniture, I settled on just a few things, all suitcase sized, and got out of there quickly. I can hardly wait to display the new items :) :) yay!
You may be wondering, my one reader, why I suddenly blogged, today, of all days. Well, truly I am procrastinating from a multitude of e-mails, trainings, and packing, but I also have a lot on my mind, and being that I am sitting at a coffee shop alone, really working on that focus thing, I thought I would share it with you.
In this whole process of applying for jobs, moving to Iowa for a month, etc I have been feeling a lot of peace about everything. I am literally living life day-to-day, trying not to stress on the things to come, and simply praying when I start to over-think things. I say, "God if this is not the right position for me, or the right place, or the right whatever, please don't let it happen". Trying to follow the will of God and not my own desires. It has been entirely more rewarding than I imagined.
There's the update.. so much more to come.. back to "focusing".
