Back Again

Ajax enjoys the new view from our window high up over looking the dog yard. This may become his favorite spot in our new office, in the sun, lounging on my warm black bear pelt.

Seems strange to be in this space again... I was first here years ago, is that right, years?

Yes, if my mind serves me correctly it has been years. Strange how time flys. Also strange how this same space takes on a different feel even though the structure, walls and carpet haven't changed.

It is myself that has gone through quite the transformation. When I left this space my business was just starting to take off. It was a very unsure time, very strange and hard to feel confident in my abilities. Now, after all this time, everything seemed to find its place again... my confidence in where things needed to be was a bit shocking.

Its also been interesting to see the way I conduct business, very clear, very confident. On the phone, in person... I try to see myself from the outside and am very proud of who I am and how far I have come.

My husband James has been an incredible suporter to me through all of this and I could not have done it without him, nor could I have done this without my good friend Timothy Albee who gave me the little nudge I needed to get out on my own.

Scott Chesney has also been a great help as we band together throughout the summer working the Farmers Market and tossing around various business ideas.

These past few years have been a struggle but being in this new work area really puts things in perspective. Its very nice to see my path stretch out before me without the clutter and insecurity of past years blocking my view.

Juno rests in the new office quietly waiting for dinner time.

Nothing much has changed other than the office's location, work will still continue, my schedule will still be fuller than Id like but there are so many blessings, too many to list here, that Im able to see much clearer than before.

I know my comfort level has a lot to do with being so close to the dog yard. They are all so close and easy to hear. I love the chorus of howls, hearing them get a bit anxious as snack and dinner time approach.

Ah there, here them now? They must have heard me typing... another howling session...

There are no words to describe how much I love each and every one of them, how much I am at peace just being within their presence. Each one of them is a miracle in so many, many ways.

I am blessed beyond measure...
