Having fun, and money, money, money

Day 9 of the Better Life Challenge!

I. LOVE. POSSIBILITIES! And I love it even more when I am the one to open the door to them and see them COMING!

See, I spoke to my new boss at my 20-hour/week contractor job after having been there for almost 2 weeks, and I didn’t know what to expect. But I went prepared because I spoke with my friend Carolyn and she gave me the right perspective to set my mindset to which is PRACTICAL and BUSINESS-MINDED and GIT-WHATCHU-NEED!

***************************************

Before I go on, I have to decry the unspeakably wrong shit that is going on in L.A. Sometimes it’s harder than other times to watch this crap unfolding, even though I feel certain that it is drawing to a close sooner than we expect. This crap is such an obvious marker that the feminine is DEEPLY needed!

So, today I met my boss face-to-face for the first time, and he turns out to be a good egg. At least a good egg to work for. And that’s what I care about in this context. But here’s the forward movement on this one: I listened to him tell me a few things, and then he listened to me ask a few things about what the heck we want to be doing here, and it turns out that there seem to be a lot of opportunities to be of serious help in this, and I actually asked him to consider that if what he decides they need help with - and they need a lot of it, apparently - I can be one to help with it, I would be glad to help, but not for $26/hour.

He nodded an “of course” nod. I’m getting slicker and slicker with being able to speak my abundance!

So he is going to think about hiring me as a consultant instead of as a temp, which he said will be something he can tell me about - as in determining what they need help with - “very soon”.

So, soon I could be working a 20-hour-a-week job that is more interesting than the formatting, and that pays a feck-of-a-lot of money!

I feel exceptionally good with the power that I feel within myself to handle a conversation like that without major prep - other than my talk with my friend last night - and to get along so well with the man without him looking at me with that look I know so well; that “but you’re just a woman - let me either appease or ignore or mansplain to you”.

So, things are interestingly better.

Now I just need to get back to watching Dr. Joe Dispenza’s Gaia program about the brain. Because I am ready for my next transformation, Mr. DeMille.

10,999 points for anyone who can name that movie…

What about fun?

The tarot readers I watch keep talking about Capricorns having some fun, and I’m having trouble with finding things that are fun! So, can you make some suggestions??? I’m thinking of improv workshops - maybe I’ll look up some freebies that take place online… I want to find some Meetup things to join live and in person. And I really want to learn to dance West Coast Swing!

Do you have any suggestions? This is the part of growth I’m less familiar with investing time in since the total decline of the Lori Empire in 2014. If you have suggestions, I’m all ears.

See you tomorrow!
