Last week was kind of busy. I am surprised I got time to breath and am still alive! Not that I was on my toes physically but it was the mental worry that drained me down. Being a Libra, I am exhausted when I have to decide on something. I see both the positive and negative things and try to weigh in all the advice given to me and then finally I get confused and mentally drain out still unable to take a concrete decision. Age is playing a role too. I think...When I was younger, I did what I wanted and never thought about anything or anybody. It was easier for me to do things my way or no way! As I grew older I realized the importance of people in life. I started to think about what they would like and started to do some things their way. After kids, my whole world started revolving around them. Most of my time was taken by them and I started doing whatever they liked. I don't know whether it is the women thing or the Libra thing. But my life started revolving around my family. And if there is a birthday in the house. I try to make sure that I do what they like to do on that day and make it as pleasant to them as possible...Well, recently it was my son's birthday! And he is a Libra too! Everyday his place of party changed, everyday he wanted different people to come to his party. Everyday it was a different theme. Planning a party for him is exhausting! I had to change my plans three times. It was taking a mental toll on me. My husband being from Mars and I from Venus was very little help. He knows that I take care of each and every detail so he presents the most carefree, happy and nothing bothers him type personality. "Don't worry things will get done" he said to me. And I trusted him!!! And nothing got done. It was already his birthday week with no place booked, no menu decided and no guest invited! I started loosing my cool and loosing my mental balance. And trust me if a Libra looses her balance it is not a good thing. I had no clue where to start and what to do. I went blank and couldn't think. Gathering all the strength I started searching for party places. I was worried all the places would be booked. Thankfully, I could find a place and I booked it even though it was not the one I would have, if I had planned earlier. But on the other hand, I was happy that at least I could find a decent venue. Without further delay invitations were sent out and then came the time for menu. My sweet, helping hubby offered that he would take care of it. I felt relieved and was starting to get my balance back. I started focusing on other things for the party. Little did I remember that we were from different planets and are total different species. Just a night before the party I got the news that no food was ordered. I just laughed out loud in disbelief. Thankfully this time, the Libra's balance was leaning more towards the positive side. I could think and act and got everything under control.
All is well that ends well. The ups and downs of my scale found the balance and my son had a blast and enjoyed his birthday more than any other times. I had broad smile across my face. But one thing I realized in this process that planning in short notice is not a Libra thing - at least not for this Libra!
