Public Persona, Private Pain, & other Musings…
Just curious…Is it considered “fake” to present to the world an attitude or demeanor of peace when feeling internal conflict?
===============================================================
My scholarship application is still pending after I asked them to reconsider their denial. I’m told it will still be over a week, but I pray that it will be much sooner so I can coordinate child care and travel arrangements. The program was sold out and then this afternoon they had a late cancellation. I pray that spot was meant for me.
===============================================================
I was reading a variety of blogs about tax day and the tax rebate. I’m glad that I filed prior to today and pleased that I did it with a program that costs me 1/2 of what it would with the CPA. I went over it several times and compared previous returns in terms of data to include. I feel confident that I did okay. Nice for it to be over. It’ll be even nicer to get a deposit!
===============================================================
I’ve toyed with a new hobby – golf. I could go on a rampant about why I had very little interest, but I’ve been recently introduced to it. I’m not good – I’ve only been once. But…here is where silliness comes into play…Last week, I saw this cute blue and pink Wilsons breast cancer awareness golf bag…and I bought it!!! Uh…what was I thinking? It’s normally not my personality to buy something I completely don’t need because I thought it was “cute”. Hello?!? I need to take it back.
===============================================================
I miss yoga. I had a monthly unlimited pass (gifted to me) and I went almost everyday until I had two weeks when I had pneumonia. There are no “make ups”. If you don’t go, you lose the time. It’s expensive and I can’t go as often as I’d like or honestly, hardly at all. It’s been about 10 days since I’ve been. It’s strange and I miss it. Even though I think I’m hittin’ the pipe every time I step foot into that room that is approximately 100 degrees, I feel so encouraged and proud that I made it through another 90-minute session. During my last week, I did 8 classes in 5 days (3 days of two classes back to back). What a feeling.

I had Pnumonia a few weeks ago i know ur pain.
And i hope u get the scholarship. I wish i could go back to school.
Chris and i did our taxes months ago ia m so glad we did. I feel so much better knowing that we didn’t rush around trying to finish them.
I say keep the golf bag…maybe your life is trying to set you off in a new direction…and it does indeed sound cute.
congrats on having filed your tax return with time to spare.
