It feels so good to be on my veranda, while the sun is still up. It's been an extremely busy week with a team here, staying and visiting until 7:30pm or so, and coming home in the dark, to then try to work on "home" related items...I am tired as this week closes. Mostly, because I've contracted an infection. On antibiotics. It will get better. But, in the meantime I become really tired in the late afternoons. So, today I was able to come home at 4:45pm and relax on my veranda. Of course, I updated my "action items" list as I like to call it, as I sat and looked at "my" mountains; that is not work to me.
Looking at the mountains, the colors, the late afternoon shift of colors in preparation for the setting sun reminds me of all the provisions, blessings, and richness we have in our lives.
Oh, may I never, ever take it for granted.
I'm excited! I found out that the book I wrote for the American Bar Association in affiliation with M Financial Group (written in 2011) is published! Better late than never!! I am thankful for the insight not to put time sensitive material in the book, as best as I could, in the volatile long-term care planning and insurance industry we've experienced these past few years! When I told Hugues that the book was published, he was excited thinking people will be buying the book, as if it was going to be a bestseller! I didn't want to quench his enthusiasm for me, so I didn't tell him that it's a very-limited-audience book for advisors counseling their clients on long-term care planning. I don't think it will make it on the New York Times list...but who knows!!! It was sweet that he was excited about it!
We are still waiting for someone, or a group, to wrap their arms around the offer from Lindsey Wilson College (see last week's blog post). Please pray, if you or someone you know is being called to be "the one". Thank you and love,
Marylee
