Wow, what a day. I ran up north this morning for a nanny interview I had, and then went to the house to drop off a deposit to where I am going to be living! So happy for that and to be "home". I realized by moving here, this is not home anymore, hasn't been for over 35 years! I don't even know what I was thinking when I moved here, but I am so thrilled I figured it out and realized home is where my children are, up north.
Then, I met my son for lunch, and we had such a nice time. We hung out for a few hours, going to Starbucks afterward. I actually had one of the children's books on me that I wrote, "What is Heaven, Anyway?". A book I wrote from the inspiration of my great nephew, who asked me that question on the beach last summer! It triggered me to write a book about it, and now I am working on illustrating it. My son actually loved it, and my friend said it was deep! Deep? In my world, all of us know and believe this, but I guess not others out there. I took that as a total compliment. My son said he will ask some friends he knows in the art store, if they would want to help me illustrate it. He even took pictures of the book, to show them the words, to see what they could create! I am so excited about this, that I finally can show ownership for this, and be proud of something I created, instead of not putting it out there. I wrote about five children's books, and have plenty more ideas about other books as well!
I didn't leave North Jersey until late, and on my way home as I drove by the highway near my brother, I decided to stop by his home, and wish them a Happy New Year. This is the brother and sister in law I was upset with last Thanksgiving. Ever since I expressed my feelings to him about that Holiday and what happened, he has been so nice to me, calling me or texting me for each Holiday, and even Mothers Day! He has been trying to reach out and be nice to me, and I am truly touched. This has definitely changed my feelings toward him, softening my heart for sure. We had such a nice time on Christmas, and I had such a nice time with him and my sister in law tonight. This is home to me, their home, now that my Mom and Dad are not around. They have lived there for almost thirty years, and this is the sister in law I have always been close to, because she is truly an "Angel" on this earth! We talked a long time, and it took me forever to leave. I sat on the couch so tired from running around, but still had to go to my friends to celebrate the New Year, watching the ball drop.
I arrived at her home late, around 11:00, and that was fine with me. She had a smaller group this year without the young adults, and it was nice. I even met one of her friends that was into Spirituality like me, and we spoke awhile while she asked me many questions about that. I gave her my card, and we are going to get some girls together so I can do some Angel Card readings.
As the New Year came, I called all of my children, and wished them Happy New Year, as we do each year. My son was happy I wasn't alone, I guess he worries about me, which I did not even see. I left my girlfriends home exhausted and in so much pain, forgetting I have been running around all day again, and finally got in at 1:30 am.
I have sent intentions for the year, not resolutions, which has a negative tone to me. My intentions are of love, peace, joy, happiness, health and wealth. To live each day moment by moment, to follow my joy, and to fall in love. I also know this is the year I will become a legitimate author, having my first books published. Feeling grateful and thrilled!
Happy, Loving, Peaceful, Abundant New Year to All
