I woke up early this morning, like way too early with hundreds of questions on my mind that didn’t have answers. I prayed, left it alone, and got out of bed. I figured since I was awake, I should make use of the time.
I sat at my dining room table, editing my book (yes, I finally finished it) and waited for my phone to ring for a conference call about…well…me and this book and my goals for this book.
It was weird having a business call about me. Business can be so personal sometimes, especially when your mind is the product. It struck me at the end of the call that I don’t share my future goals with anyone besides Sugar. The fact that I expressed them to someone knowing that what I was really asking her for assistance with helping me achieve them was surprising and completely out of character for me.
I like being in control of my own destiny. I like being able to say, I did that without having to give credit to anyone (besides God). We all need a little help sometimes though…
That meeting really set the tone for the rest of my day. Here I sit at my day job and I don’t want to be here. I love the company, I don’t like the work… Or should I say I don’t like it in comparison to what I’d rather be doing, which is writing. I don’t know that there is any job out there that would make me happy right now. I’d rather be making my dreams come true.
We are going to make all of our dreams come true Baby…
I’m so proud of you for finishing the book, Puppy Puppy, and I can’t wait to read it! From where I stand, finishing writing a book sounds pretty much like a dream come true!

I’m excited for you to read it!
Absolutely awesome, Alix! Am up this early morning, the grandbabies visiting, one snoring and the other watching Shrek. Going into the office down the hall will mean one following me and chaos will be waiting to go down. So I stay in the moment and be here. There will be writing time later. Solitude time. I use this time to embrace the characters. I know how you feel, on all fronts. Am not on a job where I don’t want to be, where I just want to be writing. But I am trusting the Universe that I am where I am supposed to be. As for your book, I am so elated for you! I am anticipating an AWESOME read, Querida!! Everything is as it is for a reason. Mucho amor y respecto!
