Mojo Rising

So today was a beautiful day all around and I feel some synergy beginning to happen. I woke up kind of late hoping that there was no staff meeting but there was. But I got a ride over to the place so that was pretty cool. Banana and I joked across the training room as DFWD (not a permanent nickname) and I wrote notes to each other. Then she and I got tickets to Mariah even though we didn’t have the pass-code to get into the presale tickets. So we’ll be on the floor for Mariah and Sean Paul in August. I wasn’t originally excited but it’s getting to me slowly but surely. I just did one of my trademark skips about 40 minutes ago. My boys didn’t go bananas on me all day and one even promised to save me a slice of his birthday cake even though I didn’t ask. On the ride home, Special K and I jammed to some old school tunes. I was touched that she thought I would appreciate them. I’m working on a new playlist right now so we can kill it on Sunday. Plus, I think I have tentative plans with a former co-worker (no nickname just yet, but I still love her) for a little get-together.

Most of all I realized I didn’t swear the whole day. There were opportunities but I didn’t even have to cue myself to hold back or think of an alternative. It is just a testament to determination and continual reliance on something stronger than yourself to help you through. Lately this verse has been sticking in my mind from Romans 12:2: “Do not seek to gratify the desires of the sinful nature.” Lately it has been my memory verse and one I hope sustains me for quite sometime.

Manic mood continues for another day.
