Day 68: Car Talk

Write for 365 days they said. It’ll be fun, they said.

Dammit, I can’t even blame this on anyone. It’s my fault.

This morning I left at 10:45 to pick up my sister to go to my other sisters home a couple hours away. Just got back home about half an hour ago.

The event was nice. The car conversation was better.

Seriously, is there anything better than a road trip with your girly?

I shared with my sister that I felt like I gave up on myself by not pursuing the recent rfp. She said I was right not to. “You’ve worked with SO many people now. You need to trust your intuition. Don’t give it anymore thought.”. There was also something about my confidence and guilt being tied to our Catholic upbringing.

It felt good to get it off of my chest. To be able to process it with someone safe who I knew would tell me the truth, not what I wanted to hear.

She asked the age old question of, “Imagine it’s 5 years from now” which gave me a lot of clarity.

Alright, well I’m taxed so this is it for today’s entry. It’s Thanksgiving week so we will see how this works out while traveling. Writing daily when I’m at home for 90% of the time is manageable. Lets see how it goes when I’m in a different environment. It will either be brutal or funny. Or I’ll just forget completely like on Day 52. Ha!
