The answer will come, just let it happen!!

I know I am not the only one with a million and one things to do this time of the year, but it sure does feel like I have more decisions to make than I normally do.

With the Christmas season, there is always a "to-do" list a mile long:

• shopping
• baking
• cooking
• visiting family
• card making
• decorating
• cleaning
• finding a Christmas tree (check!!-->)

Then comes the tasks for the new year, and those are are so hard to plan and predict, that it seems almost stupid to even TRY!!! The ones I know I must do are:

• al-anon and coda meetings
• day care for Alexzander
• job schedule (ER? tutoring?? nannying????)
• class schedule (orgo and physics)
• budget (classes, gas, daycare)
• baking business/hobby ??? (anyone who is a business developer and who wants to help out, feel free to jump on board!!)

Now, with all of those things written down, know that some things I can plan and plan for, but no matter what they will just have to work themselves out. As for the things I do have control over, I am learning to take small steps to accomplish the bigger goal. Like with the Christmas tree project....instead of trying to do it all yesterday, I let it go, and it worked out perfectly that we went today!!

With these decisions and the tasks that I am facing, it's about making small progress to get towards the bigger goal, which should always be in the background of my thinking. I am working on this!!

I know, certainly, that whatever decision that I make, because I am praying about it and being open to my higher powers guidance, will be the right one. I know that because I have the strength, hope and faith in my heart that I am on the right path.

I have the power, which I have derived from my higher power whom I call God, and that is the power to change my own life. Such simple and basic truths, to another it may seem elementary, but to me, it is now like opening a brand new book of wisdom. The reason this is happening is because I am allowing my heart to be open, and to feel the words, instead of just letting them go in one ear and out the other.

"You have plenty of time to let the answer come to you."

This is what I am focusing on at the present moment. It was as if magic spewed out of a friends mouth when I heard this today. SO inspiring, but SO simple. WOW.

Sometimes, I am lucky, and answers to things just COME to me. A sign, an omen, an idea, or a message. But, that isn't always the case, so I am remembering that I am also a really good judge of what I should be doing. I KNOW THE ANSWER, YET I AM UNWILLING TO ACCEPT IT. That gut feeling, you know?? Yeah. 

Above all, I believe. 

How are you getting through this busy end of the year season???
