Be careful what you wish for

Yesterday I went to the Healthy Living Expo on campus at Florida Tech in Melbourne, FL.  It was a chance to see a lot of people I know all in one place, and that’s always fun for me.  So much of my work entails me being alone to do it, so I welcome chances to get out and mingle, especially when it’s local.  Don’t get me wrong, I love my work, but so much of it is by telephone, one on one.  Astrologically, I have Sun, Mercury and  Venus in Aries in my 12th house,  so working behind the scenes comes naturally to me, and I dig it.  But I’ve now gone a few years without doing much travelling, which I used to do almost monthly for conferences and weekend events, and I am beginning to miss the in-person interaction of a group.

It’s the classic “be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it“.  I’ve created the perfect life for myself here, with my own business at my own hours on my own turf.  I have as much work as I can handle, and then some.  I decided a few years ago that while these are my money making years, I should work to get everything paid off as quickly as I can.  So I scheduled myself a couple of years in advance and now I’m living out the result of all that scheduling.

Granted, I’d rather be on a mission and too busy, than to be idle and without purpose.  I generally feel that there’s always a party going on somewhere and all I need to do is step into the stream of it when I have the time.  Much of my free time the past few years, though, has been between midnight and dawn.  I’m working to come out of that cycle, and create more free time and play with friends.

Stay tuned for how that goes.
