There was a time

when I felt pretty caught up in all my friends lives.....I was pretty in tune with what was happening whether by e-mail, phone, blogs.....that time passed sometime ago. Maybe when I moved here, maybe sometime after. I am longing and trying to find a way back.

Balance is a funny word. It is a simple word which describes something so hard to achieve. I am trying, I need to try harder. Work takes up a lot of me right now, I thought it would get better with a new year beginning but it isn't and it won't.....not while we are in such a competitive situation and missed Q4 numbers. We had our Sales Summit in SLC last week. It was so great to all be together. The pressure is definitely on. We all feel it. This week a trade show in San Diego, need to make some stuff happen out of that. I refuse to let the pressure and stress get the best of me. I need to separate and work on turning it off when I can.

The great thing is I LOVE my job and who I work for/with. That makes everything a tad more tolerable.

I have vacation booked 9/20-9/27......well Bryan and I have our flights booked to Cancun on miles. We are still trying to figure out exact destination although it is looking like Riviera Maya/Playa del Carmen. I can only hope we get super lucky as it is hurricane season and there isn't too much rain, that's the time of year that worked best for us so what are you going to do? He is more of the laidback personality so I am trying to be the same :). All there is wonderful and that makes everything in my life better too. After being gone for 6 days, we spent the entire weekend together. I couldn't work out because I had an incident with the chairlift at Snowbird. Chairlift won :). I am allowed to go to the gym tonight, not bike class, but it will feel good to at least get to the gym for a bit.

I am excited for San Diego too. While I have to probably face my old boss, I am in such a better place then when I went to this last year.

I find myself very content in the "NOW", while also very hopeful for my "FUTURE". Great place to be...........:)
