TOO. LONG.
I come here today after several nights of meditation....WhooooSaaaaaah....and another morning of leaving the house irritated and angry about feeling like I am in a sea of never ending house work! Cleaning! De-cluttering! Searching! Cleaning! Cleaning! and oh, did I mention CLEANING!
It seems that when I go to sleep at night, Gremlins take over and I wake up to crap everywhere all over again!
So, back to my original question. How long have I been preaching about the LOA?
Long enough to know that my actions and thoughts are causing my grief! For example, how many times have I let go of the "how" and manifested what it was that I wanted? MANY!
So why is it so hard for me to let of the HOW now? How am I going to find the perfect house? How am I going to get this house completed and ready to sell? How am I going to manage any time differences between the two? How am I going to finish getting everything done? How am I going to manage the changes in school, schedule or getting the girls home everyday in another neighborhood? How am I going to fix, update or redecorate my new house? How am I going to pay our tax bill this year AND afford to put 20% down on a new house? How? How? How?
(Oh and HOW am I going to buy a house with great Feng Shui? My current house is the perfect Feng Shui house and hard to compete with! Seriously people! You need to google what the perfect Feng Shui house consist of and you will find my house! I'm sure Mr. Strong is rolling his eyes right about now!)
It.
Is.
Exhausting.
I.
Am.
Exhausted.
Mentally and physically exhausted...
So today I am giving up the how. (WhooooSaaaaah) I no longer care about HOW - I just know that the perfect house is coming my way and I will sell my house in 1-3 days of putting it on the market. (WhooooSaaaaah!) I KNOW these things. (I have too...WhooooSaaaaah)
Now that I am relaxed - instead of bitching and complaining about How and Why and When and Where and WHEN (yes, my patience is limited.) I am going to share with you some before and after pics.
I am going to turn this frown upside down and marvel at the beauty my current house exudes! The Law of Attraction teaches us that if we complain and express our "don't wants" then we keep attracting what we don't want! Duh!
I have been writing and complaining and expressing that "I don't want to keep struggling with my current house...I can't find a new house...I don't want to keep cleaning my house EVERY DAY over and over again...I don't want this...I can't do that..." and POOF! I keep getting what I don't want and can't have!
No more.
For the sake of my sanity, family and marriage.
Today, I am going to leave a bigger tip than normal, help someone out, or even donate some money. I need to strengthen my weakened perspective of how lucky and fortunate I really am in my life!
Enjoy!

Okay, I will confess that the doors were ALL ME (and a little Mr. Strong ;-) ), but the new paint, baseboards and crown moulding was hired out. I am completely aware of my limitations! :-) Mr. Strong pointed out many of them when I ventured into the door hanging and hardware replacement business...but you won't see those pictures!
