Back on track

We opened again on time. As I watched the process I was worried that we would not meet the schedule and we would have disappointed customers for Tuesday evening. I should have more

faith in the planning. It all becomes complete in the time given.

Hitomi took a night out from her busy schedule to come over and help. That demonstrates to me her wonderful and good character. I know her current project is intensive and we have been apart for almost two weeks, but here she was and in her work clothes to help with everything. I cannot describe my joy to see her. Even greater because her arrival was unannounced and unexpected.

The building alterations created a lot of dust and the cleaners had to spray to keep the dust levels down but somehow it leaked into my hair and mouth and out into the stairs and even seemingly up to our apartments!

Have been wanting to do my hair for a week but never had the time, finally made an appointment at 'Excel' my hairdresser for Saturday and Hitomi will get another free day on Sunday so we will spend that day together. There is this sense within me that a new season begins and I feel so well despite the bitterness of last June when my contract ended. I am a new person unencumbered by previous burdens and I feel like I can walk on clouds. I think I begin to realize the pressures I worked under and the things I did to relieve stress.
But I feel free now and even that starts to bring new responsibilities and perhaps the greater uncertainty for the future.
