The silver lining

The headlines this week were all about the stagnant economy. Not particularly good news when you want to sell people the ‘extras’ in life – things they can clearly survive without. But I take that to mean I’ve got a few more weeks to redo my mailing list, to contact buyers, to do the five hundred other things on my list. It in no way changes what I need to do, but it might just let me enjoy the process knowing that it will be awhile before things pick up. It’s absolutely not an excuse to not move forward.
So that’s what I’ve been doing, slowly in bits and pieces trying to get my framework to a manageable place. That too is a ways out but the light at the end of the tunnel is starting to gleam. And in the meantime, I have a garden to tend and a dog to attempt to train.
So a slow economy means an hour on the deck with a glass of wine is neither impossible nor guilt-ridden. Something to look back on fondly when things heat up!
