7 quick takes


--- 1 ---
I am so very grateful for my life these days.  It is a really good life!  It's not perfect, but really really great!!  I actually really truly love my husband (which I guess sadly isn't the case for many).  I have a terrific kid! I love my job and my house.  I have a great extended family. I am healthy and have my needs and many wants met.  I am blessed!

Next weekend I fly to MA to complete part 2 of EMDR ( eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) training.  It will be a crazy busy weekend...last fall I took part 1 and ended up extended my stay in MA due to Hurricane Sandy and a death in my extended family.  I am hoping this trip will be quicker as I am flying, not driving.

I'm getting a slight raise!  Cigna has increased my rates by 5%!!  Yeah!!  They were one of the lower reimbursements.  Unfortunately, I don't get the whole 5%, but it's something and these days anything is good!!

This has been a great week...I've been pretty busy at work, but not crazy over the top busy...i.e. some clients have cancelled or no showed to give me breaks!  This week was fully booked when it started! I been home the nights I have been off which is also a nice break.

I really want some snow...just one storm with about 4-6".., Massachusetts is expecting another storm this weekend which will make this year the snowiest February ever on record!  I'm kinda jealous!!

Tomorrow Bug and I are taking a concealed carry class.  I am nervous and she is excited.  I love that I can empower and trust her to do this with me and I won't be surprised if she does better than I do!  She gets it from her father!!

7 Quick Takes


--- 1 ---
I have had such a crazy week!  Every night since Sunday I have been out late!!  So very excited for the weekend to be here!!


--- 2 ---
I am taking Monday off!  I have rarely taken the Monday holidays, because (1) folks are available to see me on Monday Holidays and (2) I don't get paid when I don't work!  I have decided that I work really hard and that takes a toll on my own kid.  I am hoping to do something fun, jus the two of us!  Suggestions??

Last Sunday would have been my Nana's 108th birthday!  She died in March 1995 at age 90.  She was an amazing lady who I adored!  I miss her so much and often wonder what she would say of the grown-up, "mom" me.  I know she would have been so crazy about my Bug!

Bug and I are beginning to plan her 12th birthday.  Oh, the pressure!!  It will be interesting to see what she decides.  Her birthday is in April....ideas??

--- 5 ---
Hub and I have started dating 20 years ago this month (2/6)... So hard to believe that it was that LNG ago!  Where did time go??

--- 6 ---
I rearranged my office this week.  It's been really interesting to see my clients reactions.  Some really struggle with change even the simplest change of how their therapist's office is arranged!  Most of the feedback has been great and I personally really like it, so that it what really matters!
