AND I AM SO HAPPY ABOUT IT!!!!! Well, one of my jobs. The other, the job in the little natural health food store that I love, I kept. The one I quit was the one cooking for a person who did not at all have an appreciation for how, what, who or why I cook. And therefore, it was a match made in hell. For both of us. When I was quitting, in German by the way, I barely got my sentence out before she said, I agree. and Yes. and Well, we tried. And then, it was over and I was jumping up and down celebrating and being wonderfully happy and free! For example, right now I am taking care of things in my life that I need to care for, and receiving herb books in the mail, and writing a blog post instead of being there. How wonderful!
Things I am doing instead of working there:
-Returning to my studies of Herbal Medicine including Chinese 5 Element Theory(totally interesting)
-Cooking for myself and my wife and friends- for which I had no interest while cooking there in that kitchen
-Massage and bodywork practice- like actually hanging up posters and earning money doing the work I want to be doing
-Cleaning my house and keeping my practice room clean and ready for clients
-Reading books
-Healing my Rosacea with herbs and aforementioned 5 Element Theory
-Making herbal remedies
-Practicing Tai chi and chi gong
-Beginning courses in preparation for being a Naturopath (I have to learn how to take blood and give injections!)
-Smiling
-Standing in my power
not bad, eh?
Going off to cook dinner- Stir fried brown rice, baked squash with spices, beet and hijiki sautee.
