I am continually astounded how good stuff can come from frustration, you just need to look for it.
Firstly my massage was AWESOME. It was weird she was doing fascia stripping on my gluts and it felt like I had the TENS machine on boost while she was working on my right cheek. It was fascinating and weird that it didn't happen on the left.
After she left I got an email from a friend about a teleconference that was going to be starting in 30 minutes. I quickly made my lunch and joined in. It was PHENOMENAL. So I got nothing done on my online prenatal class but that was totally worth it (surprise present #1).
I did get a chapter of work done on my run/walk course so that was great. Another step forward.
Marc and I were supposed to bottle wine last night. Marc has always been in charge of preparing the bottles. On Tuesday night I asked if he wanted to get the bottles ready and bring them upstairs and he said "We can do that tomorrow." As I was preparing dinner he let me know he was running late and he would meet me at Exquisite Taste in Wine. So I quickly ate and went to get our bottles. And to my surprise most still had the labels on them, grrrrr. It was 5:15 pm our appointment was at 6 pm at Brant and Upper Middle. I called Joanne, the owner of Exquisite Taste in Wine, to cancel because I was so frustrated and didn't think I could get it done and get there on time. She gave me a tip on how to remove the labels, asked what I wanted to do and said she could help. She also let me know my friend was coming in as well to bottle and I had Girl Guide cookies for her so I decided to keep the appointment. I called Juliet and Elizabeth down to help me. They were awesome and super sweet. I arrived at Exquisite Taste in Wine at 5:59 pm. During the drive Marc called to say the whole Louisana office was down and he would not be able to help me bottle, grrrr, I have never bottled on my own before. Joanne was super helpful and I got the bottling done very fast, Tree arrived and helped me even more. Friends are awesome. I told Tree I had Girl Guide cookies for her. In actually took 4 boxes in the car. The other ladies who were there wanted cookies as well. Joanne even said if Elizabeth wants to leave some there with her she could sell them at the desk and if Elizabeth wants Joanne would give her permission to sell in front of her store on Saturday, which is next to No Frills and across from Tim Horton's. When Elizabeth was out selling in the neighborhood she noticed a group of Brownies, that would make selling harder (surprise present #2).
Today I was supposed to get together with a friend for coffee but she has cancelled. I just wonder what little surprise will come up as a result of my free time. Today is an office day. I have not picked from my self-care jar, but I am sure it will be excellent. I am meeting with clients tonight for our final visit, I love holding babies.
I hope each of you has a day filled with wonderful surprises.
