I have been suffering from a lack of alone-time as of late. Being in a fairly new relationship, I love spending time with my beau (giggle), but being a "loner" at heart, I need time to myself once in a blue moon...and that is what I got today!
My first hour was spent watching football...yes, you read that right, Jill was watching football...alone. (Side note: How did this happen to me!?) Anyway, I pulled myself away after the Steelers won & headed outdoors.
I walked up to one of my favorite coffee shops (El Diablo on Queen Anne Avenue) & treated myself to a Mexican hot chocolate & some Cuban toast (yes, it was a very international affair) while catching up on some reading. *sigh* It was pure heaven. I must not let so much time pass between dates with myself. I'd almost forgotten what great company I am! :)

Challenges & Strengths
I recently began my career as a Beauty Consultant with Mary Kay. I'm have a ton of fun & meeting such a wonderful group of beautiful and sincere women! I mean...where else can you work with a bunch of women who are so incredibly supportive (rather than competitive) of one another? I doubt one could find a place!
I'm at the point where I'm beginning to set goals for my business. I'm going to hold 3-5 appointments each month (at the least!). In order to do that I will need to branch out of my comfort zone & meet some new ladies...This is both exciting & scary at the same time! Being a self-described "shy girl," talking to women I don't know is a challenge for me. But it's a challenge I can and will handle!
As noted in my previous entry...We all have such strength inside us! We need just to tap into it & the outpouring will be abundant! Think of a challenge you're facing today & find that strength to overcome it! You have it!

Along my walk I notice...
On the crisp winter morning the dry leaves cling to their branches, quivering in the wind. Their rustling reaches my ears...I close my eyes and smile, for these leaves have held on while others were unable...reminding me of the inner strength in all of us.
