The first snowflakes of the "Christmas Blizzard" Elliot have started to fall here. In anticipation of it grocery stores have had the usual emptying out. People stocking up on everything from toilet paper to chicken breast have left the store shelves almost empty. The different reactions of people is interesting to me. While it's good to be prepared, for sure, there's no need to panic. Some people hoard items like it's the end of the world is coming.
Some, like me, greet the coming blizzard with a welcoming attitude. Due to the storm I cancelled traveling to see my dad. This is the first time in my life I've not been with family for Christmas. My Frenchie Rufus is traveling to Los Angeles with my ex to spend the holiday with his family. So I have from today until the end of the holiday weekend to myself. While this probably sounds sad, I'm not sad at all. Sure, I will miss being with my dad and my dog, but the up side is I have lots of Me Time. I have several things I'm looking forward to: doing some blog entries like this, leisure cooking, finishing two of the books I'm reading, and doing some deep meditation sessions, to name a few.
It seems the older I get these personal, Me Time inward journeys and activities get more and more rewarding. They help create a nice, centered, spiritual feeling within that I love.
