Gardening in High Heels

cultivate a beautiful life

Sunday Lately, 38

September 20, 2015

This week dragged.  Anyone else, or is the cheese standing alone on this one?  I mean, I did manage to write + publish two (yes, folks, two) posts this week, by far the most I’ve done in a long time.  And I had an interview on Wednesday for a position in the marketing department where I currently work, so I was pretty consumed with putting together my presentation for that.  But not for nothin’, this was a long freakin’ week.

Essie Chocolate Kisses and OPI The Living Daylights glitter. Fall nail combo!

I did my nails this week, though, so that’s something!

Dwelling

I’ve been trying to make up my mind on a few different paths that I want to take and I’ve been dwelling pretty heavily on that.  I tend to get stuck in analysis paralysis if I don’t just make a move and make it quick.

My car?  I decided I liked it, wanted it, could afford it, and bought it in a matter of hours.  What kind of planner I want for 2016?  I’ve been belaboring over the perfect one (Emily Ley, Get to Workbook, DIY my own!) for months.  Among other things I won’t get into now.

Helping

I feel like I can finally get back to helping other people.  This summer was just…I don’t know, but I had no desire to blog.  The freelance work I do was half-hearted.  I made no progress in moving forward in a business of my own.  But I finally feel like I can start helping other people again.

That’s what I really want to do: be a helper.  Everyone has a beautiful story to tell and I want to help them share it with the world.  And I want to help them share it with the world so they can make meaningful connections along the way.  I want to share a story of a business in a way that people want to go there.  Or introduce two people because person 1 has a need that I know person 2 can fulfill.  Now they’re happy.  Look, I made that happen!

That’s what I want to do.

Forgetting

That words are as powerful as the emotions behind them.  I think a lot of people forget just how strong a weapon words are.  Use it wisely and kindly.

Switching

From coffee to beer…which is probably why I’m getting so introspective right now.  I’ve found I hit a very happy buzz and get all kinds of reflective after about half a beer if it’s been a few hours since I last ate anything.  Mental note…use this to my advantage.

Also, I am not writing this on Sunday morning.  I am out with my aunts doing an Ovarian-Cancer-benefit 5K.  I love the magic of scheduling.

Relying

On lots of coffee.

    GIRL, it DID feel like the longest week ever. For what it’s worth, I feel like I had a long weekend though! 🙂 If you want to add another notebook/journal option to your list, I just bought this one: http://www.thesparknotebook.com/

      Look weeks/weekends just aren’t as nice if you aren’t having fun..yknow? Haha.

      OMG I love that! It’s almost what I made for myself this year. And it’s on the lower end of the cost spectrum, which is always a great plus. Thanks for letting me know about them!

  • Laura @ Life with Lolo

    It definitely was a long one! And I’m all for swapping beer for coffee. I do it on the regular.

    • Angelica @GardeningInHighHeels

      My two vices are always locked and loaded and ready to go for me. Haha

  • Katy McKinley

    I think summer kills all mojo for blogging and productivity because you’d rather be doing something else. New season = new desire to do things. You’ll be back at it in no time!

    • Angelica @GardeningInHighHeels

      Thanks, ladybug! It’s been a rough season for sure! Any time there’s a change in the weather, it’s always a fresh start.
