From September to the end of November is the busiest time of year for me. We are launching new video game titles while also trying to encourage people to buy...buy... BUY!
So for the last month, I have been heads down working and completing my first quarter of school.
It has been exhausting and almost pushed me over the edge a couple of times. My work/life/school has been severely off kilter and then come Thanksgiving, I got sick again! It was just like when I was in college and any holiday that came around gave my body a chance to just shut down.
So I took a couple of extra days off from work. I completed my marketing plan and presented my product to my class. And now I have the whole month of December to just to relax and get back on track. I have been juicing a lot lately and moving back to raw foods. I will be going to the ladies spa a couple of times in the next month to just detox the last few months of stress and sickness out of me.
It's time for me to prepare for the New Year. I love this time of year, not because of Christmas but because I always get very reflective on life and my place in it. I like to spend the extra hours of darkness to think about what my goals are for the next year and to think about where I have been. It's my favorite ritual in life and this year is no different.
One last thing, over Thanksgiving I let my family know what I was most Thankful and grateful for. This was the first time I have ever expressed to my family my feelings about stuff like this. I have decided for the next month to let people know how grateful I am that they are in my life. I show how my gratitude and go out of my way to help others. But for the first time in life I am going to really open my heart and tell them my feelings. This should be an interesting month!
