A Bit of a Lull

Not going to lie, things are a bit stuck right now.

There have been some ups and some downs, some minor inconveniences, some lulls in creation.

I'm going to blame it on Mercury Retrograde.

As much as I just want things to move forward, I'm taking this as a good opportunity to just trust the Universe.

You'll see it when you believe it....

So remember my last post, in which you hold and trust the Universe?

In the "You can't make this stuff up" category, I just received a phone call about a job.

A temp job.

Working completely from home.

At a higher rate than my last job.

Which starts Monday.

Because they really need somebody.

Yeah, 'cause that's how all this works.

Saying "No" Confidently

So my last temp job has no work for me.

First offer, temp opportunity in Lansdale.

No, thanks, too far.

Email today, permanent opportunity, Princeton, NJ.

No, thanks, too far.

How can I turn down opportunities?

Because I have complete trust in the Universe, that's why.

I've noticed that some duds trickle in before the real gold.

I don't know why.

As I see it, it's like the Universe asking if you will believe and hold it for the prize.

Yeah, I will.

Little Things..

It's the little things that I notice.

I was looking for a certain kind of scissors for a project. I had them on my list to buy.

I was looking through a drawer today for my usual scissors and as I fished around in the drawer I came up with a pair of scissors I didn't even know I owned that are perfect for the project.

So that happened.

I also decided I needed a pair of white sandals for the summer. Also on the list.

I've been cleaning out the basement and I reached for a bin stuffed back on a table and inside I found several pairs of shoes that I haven't seen in a couple of years.

Was there a pair of white sandals in said bin?

Why, yes. Yes, a pair of white sandals just materialized.

Okay, they didn't materialize. I bought them several years ago and somehow they ended up in the cellar, probably stored for the winter.

Nonetheless, up they popped, just when I needed them.

Which perfectly illustrates how LOA works and how you manifest. Don't get yourself all bent and twisted.

Just calmly make a note of what you need and know somehow what you need will turn up just when you need it.

That's how this all works.

Hmm, what do I put on my list next?

Mirabile dictu....

I'm sort of still amazed at how the Universe comes through for me.

Lately work has completely slacked off. So no money coming in. It's been a bummer, not gonna lie.

Also, had a bout of diverticulitis, ended up in ER. More money going out.

On top of everything, on Mother's Day, I noticed a leak in the bedroom ceiling. I was on my way to my sister's house and I freaked out at little. In fact, I was kinda ticked off all day.

When I went to sleep, I was thinking about how to fix the leak. Then, it dawned on me, I have insurance. Oh, right. Well, then.

I make a survey of Yelp and picked out an insurance adjuster. He was a very nice and competent person. He advised that I would probably only net about $2000.00 for the repairs to the roof and ceiling. Okay, fine. Leak stopped, ceiling drywall repaired. I'm good.

Several weeks later and one visit from the insurance person, I received an email last night that they want to bring over a check for more than $11,000.

Say what now?

I know nothing about insurance so I always hire adjusters on the rare instances that I have any problems.

I would say I'm stunned but rather I am pleased.

It no longer stuns me how well the Universe takes care of me. Quite frankly, all I want to do in future is remember that the Universe is much better at solving my problems than I am!

Miracles happen...

Amazing Universe

Still working freelance. Same place. About 20 minutes from my house (with a DD on the way). Sometimes I work from home. Sometimes I go in.

Office is in great old building that used to be a ship factory. There's no elevator besides a service elevator so I climb 24 concrete steps to get to work. Then I have to walk a city block to get to my office. Yes, the Universe managed to get me free exercise as well as a job! At first, admittedly, I just hated it, but now, after a couple of weeks, I'm used to it. I go up and down them a lot faster now!

The office is full of young kids, they're adorable! They bring their dogs to work! Honestly, it's like the offices you see on tv shows. They have literally baskets of munchies around. They're always a snack if you're peckish. Plus, they constantly have meetings, which means there is always food. I almost never have to buy lunch!

The work is very interesting and fast-paced. The day goes by fast, which I like. I'm picking up ad agency work and lingo very fast.

But, wait, as they say on tv, there's more!

There is a spot to drop off charitable donations on the way home. Yes, I literally have no reason to not clean out the cellar now.

I just love letting the Universe organize my life!

They like me! They really really like me!

Well, the Universe comes through again.

Had interview on Thursday.

Thought it went well.

Didn't hear anything though until Wednesday, which was alright by me, since I'm still recovering from miserable cold.

The agency finally called and said they loved me. They want to bring me on freelance, which means I can work from home. They will get back to me with start date.

YES!

Just in the nick of time. As usual.

That's just how the Universe and I roll.

It's nice having the Universe as a friend!
