Do you have big plans for this summer?
Amelia is in Austin taking classes June-July and Graham is headed to Spain to study Spanish and we…
We will be “test driving” the “Empty Nest Model!”
What did you do when you had your first Empty Nest Experience?
We are planning on taking a few weeks to explore the beautiful lakes and mountains of Tennessee. As Californians, we are very much missing the mountain and lake beauty of our home state, so we’re going to see how Tennessee compares.
Of course, we’ll be taking into account all Pickleball availability as well. 🙂
Speaking of Pickleball, this weekend I’m volunteering at the Professional Pickleball Association’s Texas tournament. I’ve done this several times before, and I’ve figured out the best place to be, so if on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday morning you tune in on YouTube, I’ll be there on center court (at the end in the VIP section) making sure everyone has their drinks and snacks. Give me a shout-out @christylargent if you see me! 🙂
Seriously, I’ve found that the best way to ensure I meet all the expectations I’m looking for in life is to plan to meet them myself.
In the past, especially when it came to vacation time, I would get in that victim mode, expecting other people to step up and make sure my vacation was great.
Or summer vacation. Waiting for someone else to make the plans – whether a girlfriend to meet for lunch, or a trip to somewhere special, or attending a Pro Pickleball tournament…
Rather than own the desire and make sure I found a way to make it happen, I would wait…then be disappointed and discouraged when it didn’t come about.
So my question and encouragement for you sweet friend, is to figure out what you want to do this summer, then get busy making it happen. I think you’ll be surprised at what can happen when you put your creative mind into action.
As always, life can be as wonderful as we want it to be, we just have to manage our mind to make it so.
Love you and cheering you on!
Christy 🙂
