We had a tiring but wonderful time, then reality hit hard on the return trip and it hasn&#8217;t stopped! I had a surprise with my bank account after noticing that a bill paid went through twice. That may be great for the cable company, but not so hot for my personal monies. I&#8217;ve been, I think understandably, upset by this and after hours on the phone have not yet been able to have it corrected. So I was surprised at pulling the Four of Cups. I&#8217;m certainly not bored, something that this card can represent. In fact it&#8217;s the opposite, I have way too much going on. I&#8217;d love to be bored for awhile! It can also mean taking things for granted. Well I don&#8217;t do that&#8230;do I? I had taken for granted that the fix for this financial issue would be easier. Boy was I wrong there. But I thought more about it and about life. Sometimes when things aren&#8217;t quite the way we wish for them to be we forget to see what it is we already do have. I could complain forever about the repairs needed in my home, but the fact is, I have a place to live. I have a roof over my head. Many people do not. I could complain about not having time to myself but the reason I do not have time is because I have a rich life, full of children and art. I could complain that my partner didn&#8217;t do this or that fast enough to my liking but the fact is I have a partner that will do anything for me. I see where I am taking for granted the things I <em>do<\/em> have and focusing on what I <em>do not<\/em>. Whoops! Pulling this card has been a great help in adjusting my attitude this morning. It&#8217;s easier than I thought to take things for granted. But those everyday moments are the magical ones. Those closest to us are the important ones. It isn&#8217;t the &#8220;stuff&#8221; it isn&#8217;t the state of a bank account that matters. Appreciate all that you do have today and focus on that. Focusing on lack only creates more lack. (And a crabby demeanor!) So here&#8217;s to Monday and a new week of appreciation and gratitude.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0I got back this Monday after spending the weekend camping at a festival.
