This glass is defiantly half empty. Unfortunately, my glass is usually half empty. It’s a good thing I married a “glass-half-full” kind of guy, or I’d be in trouble! This morning, instead of going home to shower after Pilates and grab a quick breakfast with the family, I went to work (and, yes, I still stink!) to get some work done that has been piling up. I had 4 ads that needed to be produced and I wanted to get them out of the way before my show started. I open up my email, and the lady who assigns all of the production apparently was in extra early this morning, because there was MORE production assigned, and this ad needed to be both written….and produced…and have some questionable facts checked before both of those things could happen. I despaired! I thought, oh great…of course this would happen…the ONE time I come in early. Early enough to not only get my work done, but also have a few minutes to …Oh, I don’t know, BLOG? Or, clean my office and pick up the 6 hangers that have been tossed around the back room for days now? (Like that would happen anyway!) Anyway, why can’t my initial thought be, wow, good thing I came in early on this day, what with the surprise work load and everything…now I have time to do all my prod before the show starts…but, nope my mind goes immediately to the negative. Well, I gotta go…my show starts in 1 minute 32 seconds…and strangely enough, I had time to do everything I wanted! Now about those hangers…Let's Connect!

Oh Ceci, I love your honesty. I am the same way. No matter how hard I try to be positive and encourage my little ones to do the same, I do not like unforeseen things being plopped onto my plate. I cringe when my husband 2-ways me to do something for him, because it's not planned into my day. Each day can get way too busy. I'll keep trying I guess.
I always see the glass 1/2 full which sounds like a good thing but not always. Sometimes I need a "reality check" and often my head is so far in the clouds of "wonderfulness" I can't even fully grasp what is really happening. I am married to a "glass 1/2 empty" guy and I love it! We bring each other such balance it is wonderful!
