Smile.... For doggie

The highlight of my day today was when a young  woman came onto the ttc and sat beside me with her cute gray dog.  It was such a quiet obedient dog.   When I looked across to the other side, there was a rather large overweight man with the hugest smile on his face as he watched the cute dog.  The happiness in his eyes just made my day.  It was a very cool moment.

Fingers, Rings, and Meanings

Check this out:

I choose to display the above image because I actually do wear a ring in my index finger!

Right now, I'm looking for a ring to wear on my Little Finger.  Interesting to read the meaning of that:

Inner Buzz

I feel an inner buzz.   Its hard to explain.  Its like a lift on the inside... no, not physically, but more like emotionally.   I just came from my first class for Life Skills Coaching class, module three. After this course is completed, I will be a George Brown certified Life Skills Coach!

I had a great class today.  It was much better than I expected.  I think that where some of the buzz is coming from.   Have you ever silenced or ignored that little voice on your shoulder that reminds you of your fears?  Have you ever just taken action and not even thought about it?  I feel that I did that today.   That I didnt think things through a million times.  I didnt think about how stupid my question, answer or statement may have sounded.  I just shared my thoughts and ideas whenever I could.  Not only that, I even opened myself up and shared my life experiences, part of my identity you could say.   Thats a scary thing to do, especially when you are someone like me, who loves her walls... oh how I love those protective walls.   But you know you what?!  It felt great.

Though I do have to say, that I just realized I must have mentally prepared myself for class today.   It wasn't really a conscious effort.  I tend to be quiet and shy in groups.   I was very quiet in module 1.   I opened up a bit more in module 2.     A turning point for me, was actually feedback I got on the last day from the facilitator that he would have liked it if I had spoken up more in class because my insights and impressions would have helped the groups growth!  I was shocked to read that, as I guess I underestimated my ability and the value of my experiences.  I am grateful to have received that feedback, and I plan on using that feedback, to  'Unleashing the Soni Within'.  

Its going to be an awesome year!

Lottery Mania

This is my first blog on blogger.    I wanted try to blogspot site that allowed for others to comment on it if they wished.

The highlight of my day today had to do with my lottery tickets....

I had about 20 lottery tickets sitting around that needed to be checked for months now.  Well, maybe since November.  I do check them myself online, but I always double check in store.   So now, I had about 5 scratch tickets and 15 or so Lotto Max tickets.

Finally today I decided to validate them in store.  I came out with 3 free plays of Lotto Max and $39 !  Not too bad.

Wish me luck on the next draw for my free plays!
