Putting the pieces back together

"Sometimes the pieces fall in place on their own. At other times, we must deliberately put them back together." -NSpirit On Life


My life is slowly but surely falling back into place. Yesterday was a good day. I had a meeting with the boss, and all is well. I'm hiring an intern and a few vendors (writing and design) to work with me on my 9 to 5. Seems I'm not going to be writing as much from now on - she wants me to manage all the development communication projects, instead of actually doing them myself. This is a good thing definitely, but it'll be hard for me to adapt at first. I grow personally attached to a lot of my projects, and I tend to want to create them myself, but I know that providing the instructions, directions, and then managing the production will allow me to accomplish much more, and in tern, help our staff raise more money for education.

Today I looked at an apartment. Need to move out of my current (rent-free) spot by August, and the place I looked at today definitely has potential. One of my best friends here in PA is going to be the only other tenant in the building which is a huge plus. I feel kind of funny about having to rent again, knowing that I own property. But my house is in Bmore, and a few friends are renting, and moving back to that city is not an option. I can't stand it there anymore. So...now, I'm just waiting on who I hope will be my new landlord to let me know if my two dogs, Honey & Minnie, can come too. If not, that will probably be a deal breaker.

I've been so consumed with the troubles in my personal life that I've put all things with building and re-branding my business, Brown INK, on hold. I have the new logo, but I still haven't begun working on the site or my new PR package, etc. That's my next mission.

I'm just glad the pieces are coming together again.

With the new season, I had to start new in so many areas of my life. It is a little stressful and heartbreaking at times, but I'm glad it's coming together. I'm still thanking God, while slowly putting the pieces back into place.

Thank you. I've been told that this blog is often too revealing, because I try to take it one step deeper than surface level. Thanks for subscribing. :-)
