planetary alignment

2 years, 8 months, and 22 days my life changed in ways I cannot explain here. But it was also 2 years, 8 months, and 22 days ago that it was decided for me, and accepted by me, that I would not wait for the planets to align, I would not wait for a sign, I would not wait for the right time, I would not wait for permission, I would not wait for justification, that I would claim my birthright, I would chase what it is that I am after and I would not take no for an answer and if that's what I got, I would ask politely, but firmly, to be directed to whomever would tell me yes.

I landed my dream job last week. At a company I've wanted to work at since the beginning of time, practically. I've got a trip to the States planned for the end of the month, and huge things are going to come out of that trip, too.

My children are brilliant and are each other's best buddy despite an 8 year age difference, we've got grass growing on our 5+ acres instead of weeds, I am healthy, and happy, and wildly blessed.

To quote an adorable little girl on a viral video, I like my whole house. And I can do anything good, yeah, yeah, yeah.
