Looking better and better
May. 12th, 2008 04:45 pmThings are looking up. I, physically, am looking bigger and bigger - but that's a good sign really. I feel great, but when I catch a glimpse of myself I think I must have a gravitational pull!
Ahem.
Things are work are settled. Improvement are right around the bend and I am relieved. It helps that I decided this weekend to cut off the energy suck - I decided that I'd done my best in the situation and I would let it all go. Made coming to work a much better experience. In addition to the staffing situation improving, the general state of the non-profit is looking fabulous and it kinda makes me excited.
It's been the sort of day where I wouldn't mind hanging out in the East Bay for several more years. There are some exciting pagan nonprofits in the works, one that I might be a part of at some point down the road. It's amazing to me that my administrative skills are so useful! It feels good to be professionally employable.
It also feels good to know wonderful people, people doing The Work - of the world, of the self, of the Divine, for the world, for themselves, for the Greater Good. That also is invigorating.
Of course, my staying very long in the Bay Area requires a couple of things that are non-negotiable: a larger place to live that is quiet, green and safe enough for our kid/s to play outside, and enough money and flexibility that I can go more often, for longer periods of time to Alaska.
We'll see what happens. But today it feels possible.
