A new way of thinking for a New Year of being.

On the right track…

The wrong side of the tracks…

Back on track…

Lost track of time…

2009 is here folks. The above expressions are just a glimpse into what has happened to me over the last year or so. For those of you who don’t know I struggled with figuring out what to do with my life before my lightbulb moment leading me to start Events in Bloom. Since this began I have put a lot of things on the back burner and it has become apparent to me (and I’m sure a few others) that this has to change. I put everything I had into the business and it was a great first year for me, I am truly proud of what I have accomplished with it. Not so much with has been left in its wake…

BUT this is all about to change. So no more out of sight out of mind organizing, puttering around when I’m scheduled to have been working out, grabbing a quick fast food type meal on the go to set up an event, fussing over things that don’t need fussing over when I should be working on my accounting or blogging. Man when I put it all down in a list it seems extremely daunting!!! So its back to work on Monday for me and I have a plan…namely my plan is to break these issues down into small goals as suggested to me by my husband who pointed out I have a pretty terrible habit of making a huge plan only to get overwhelmed by it all and give up before I even start…(thanks Dave!). And so no more biting off more than I can chew, I must learn to simplify and the dreaded…ASK FOR HELP!!! Ahhhhhh! Probably doesn’t seem that scary to you dear reader but to an OCD ridden over-achiever like me its the kiss of death.

We’ll see how this all plays out but at least you’re along for the ride right? Tomorrow is a new day and there is a lot of work to be done, meal plans, groceries, lists, schedules and such…plans just don’t happen you know. Phew! I should probably take a nap before all of this begins don’t you think? Wish me luck!
