It has been an odd week. I feel like the only person that was working this week. Maybe I should have checked out and joined the rest of the world on vacation. I still can't seem to look at time the way everyone else does. I think it is all my years as a flight attendant-not all my years as a Virgo. When I went to fly-I basically missed 2 or 3 days of "regular" living. No bill paying, no laundry, grocery store....When you fly out of the country, you can't even make a follow-up phone call. Through out the years I began to view my life as being "lived" in 15 days of the month not the regular 30 days the rest of you have. The days away from home became non-existent and unproductive. This attitude really takes hold when you are working another career along with the flying. It shouldn't be that hard, I have enormous flexibility but I DO waste a great deal of TIME worrying about not having enough time. I think I make it harder for myself. This is part of that whole New Years "letting go" thing. I have got to stop worrying! Maybe that also comes together when I also realize that I have never missed a deadline or have never been late to just about anything in my life. I haven't yet, I am not going to start now, the fretting just makes me, well, FRET! Do I need yoga classes or what? Oh well, have a glass of bubbly-be it pink or white for me! Happy New Year!
