It's Saturday morning and the house smells absolutely amazing. I have been cooking cholent over night. Wow is all I can say. I hope it tastes as good as it smells. I thought since it's been so cold and I am making latkes later, it will be a good combination. I may have to try some at lunch! I made a meat version and a vegetarian one as well. Once I finish writing here, I will head to the farmer's market and Lunardi's to get everything else.
Although right now I am content just sitting here, drinking my morning cup of coffee and feeling the rays of the sun. I am looking forward to my time off. I have two days of work next week and then I am off until January 5th. I may do some writing and some thinking but I want to get organized. I want to sort through my stuff and get rid of clutter. My papers are a total mess. I also want to go to a ton of movies so I hope that some good movies come out and there is something to see!! Walking a lot will also be on my list of things to do.
I realized in the past month that the reason I struggle so much with "old white haired men" at work is that it comes back to issues with my dad. I did a lot of thinking about it and have been able to let go all my emotions specifically with the two men in my path right now. Last week, I was running a call with 15 people scattered around the globe and at the end of it, one of the assholes (white haired men) started giving me project management advice on how I should follow up, with everyone on the call. I put him on mute and burst out in laughter. It's his issue; not mine. And one of the guys on the call IMed me making funny of it. People know. There is no reason to react. The learning is just let it go!!! Don't let them have an impact on my life cause it's not worth it.
The next 6 months are a gift. I need to make the most of the opportunity I have been given.
