Maybe not the quintessential people pleaser after all

I did something interesting Tuesday and Wednesday without even realizing it.

I truly put myself first.

It was work-related to start with. I have a project that I will refer to as Project SSB. I was going

I realize that I have to this completed on Tuesday NIGHT for them to be ready on Wednesday morning.

I looked at my schedule. I had 2 kids to teach and I had to pick up my house and get it ready for my housekeeper to come on Wednesday when she normally comes on a Friday.

So I looked at the workload and re-arranged the kids to other days and re-scheduled the housekeeper to another day as well.

I was so amazed and proud of myself for putting my needs ahead of everyone elses.

Of course, that not withstanding, I did drive out in an Ice storm pelting me and my car with pellets of ice ( fairly large by the way) so that I could give one of my students a final lesson before his solo festival. It didn't even occur to me to check the website to see if it was postponed.

It was.

I drove in that nightmare for nothing. But my kids and their parents were extremely thankful. I got a bottle of Body Glimmer Wash in strawberry fizz from Victorias Secret as a thank you. Yum.
