Fab Friday

What can I say except that I am oh so very glad that today is Friday!!

It's the end of a work week that has no word to describe it.

Could it be that as the year is coming to an end, people are looking at the calendar and suddenly deciding they want to wrap up their business concerns or invoices?  Could it be the whole "fiscal cliff " fiasco?  I don't know but whatever it is, this week has been incredibly freakin' busy.

I arrive in the office thinking it's going to be one kind of day and then it ends up being another kind of day.  What do you call that kind of dynamic?  You know, the kind of day when every activity starts to blend into the next one and you just try to ride the mojo.

I'm happy to have my job but this week stands out for the increased pace.
 
This is also the time of year when I think to myself, "Why didn't you start some of your Christmas shopping in November?"  I truly admire those people who are able to start Christmas projects months ahead of time and then store them away for the holidays.  Or the people who start baking weeks ahead of time and then take comfort in all the goodies that have in the freezer ready just in time for holiday parties.
 
Organization is at the top of my list of things to do this weekend and maybe some exercise to burn off the extra calories I have been indulging in during December.
 
What are your weekend plans?

Start!


Today is your starting line.

Think about all the good intentions or projects/ideas you keep in the back of your brain with the goal of pursuing them some day when you get more time.  You really want to make these things happen but it always seems that something gets in the way and the ideas remain just ideas; the creative thoughts are something to be developed in the future, and you just don't get started.

Today is diffferent.  Today is the day you kick yourself out of the box and you take the first step in researching, investigation or brainstorming.  Get rid of the baggage and move forward. 




It may be unsettling or a little scary but you're never going to know what happens unless you mix things up or try something different.

Today is the day you are going to:

--call a friend

--contact a family member

--set up an account

--make an appointment

--draft a proposal

--write a letter

Put yourself out there and see what happens!
