positive outcomes

Today went well... of the five biggest worries I'd had regarding the upcoming field deployment to Spain, three were largely addressed today. The shipment is out, we have a satellite contract, and another issue was discussed fruitfully. (smile)

But the past two afternoons, I've spent with small children... yesterday, [personal profile] cyan_blue came over and taught David, Kevin, and I geocaching... we found four of five. :)

Today, I could have felt rejected, but chose repeatedly to take positive outcomes and meanings away instead. A date scheduled for tonight with J. was cancelled. Then so was lunch with [personal profile] dawnd because of other needs there... but given the already-cleared afternoon schedule, I volunteered instead for Allegra-care to cover for them. As well as having a lovely chance for performing acts of service (cleaning, setup for guests, Allegra's swim lessons). (smile) And J. has agreed to see me next week for lunch, before I go.
