Since my blog is supposed to be a journal sort of thing I should probably do more than post the most entertaining pieces of my life. In between visiting mom for her birthday and attending docutah I work...professionally and domestically. I am also a philanthropical freak, involved in way to many service projects and volunteer opportunities.
Work
Every day I spend as the Director of Public Relations for CMI is an adventure. My three fold mission is to benefit the students in all that we do, to connect with the community and to generate partnerships that will in turn generate revenue for the CMI and the Communication Degree Program at DSC. I enjoy this very much. I grow with every challenge and I am continually enlightened by the energy of the students. The down side is that I have to interact with people that must be tolerated instead of respected.
In every working environment we must cross paths with people who lack self esteem and as a result behave in unethical ways. The people I speak of are supposed to be experienced professionals who should have learned by now to act with respect. Instead they see only their personal agendas and will do their best to undermine and bulldoze the goodness in others. In these instances I must hold to my integrity and breath deep. I must remind myself that God is watching and that karma will always prevail.
Home
If I say that for the 6th time in the last 10 years I am immersed in a move will you understand? Yes, once again we move our household from one location to another. I am mentally, physically and emotionally spent. I am now determined to stay in this new home or move abroad. One more move to another St. George location will cause me to completely collapse. I'm sure that daily meditation and prayer has pulled me through and kept me going. My forward vision is for 2 weeks from now when I will detox for 2 days with Karamea in Salt Lake.

That is currently my life. And I can still see that it is a beautiful Sunday morning and feel joy in my soul.
