When you know, when you don't

-
I've reflected today about some current life situations...from a family member in the hospital, and family friends hospitalized, too, to my upcoming surgery. What it all themed out to be is what you feel/think/know about something and when you don't. 

Example: I know my feet and my ankles are bad; I know my bunions have been getting worse and causing damage;
 I know that teaching full-time again aggravated them. I also know that your mindset is important, and this was something that you can live with for awhile. 

Until it got too bad and I decided to have x-rays again. But I didn't expect to see what I did. I'm not sure why I don't feel even worse, why my foot doesn't collapse on me. My big toe joints aren't attached!

Ah, there it is. The change of mindset after a visual representation of something bad. I'm in it.

But I'm in luck. I have a day that makes me see and be positive. I have about 150 heats to dance tomorrow. I have a built-in mindset changer for a time that I'm truly nervous about something. Real genuine nerves. But tomorrow, I have a reason to forget about it, to push it out. 18 hours.

I hope you learn to be able to change your mindset. Sometimes YOU make all the difference.

Lots of Love,
Tiffany 💋

What's up with me??? and planning for the future

"Hi, My name is Tiffany Ellen Pereira and I am mistake-prone. My last mistake was this morning." I feel like I should be in mistake AA! Silly, ridiculous mistakes. Not that I haven't made them before but right now they seem to be rampant. I'm working through them every day but I'm tired of making mistakes - and I can't seem to stop them. I think I had a good day then - womp, womp - I wake up to a mistake. My process: What?! How did that happen? I know better; why did I miss that? then I think about how I can change it, if I can change it then should I do it now or is another time better, then I proceed. Though I don't beat myself up anymore - too badly - I still am writing this article about it. I hate it. I've employed so many things to get better but recently I'm just going backwards - at least in my book. I can be happy and excited at work now - that's a plus. But I still am doing silly things - not just at work - but in life. For example: i...

Wine blog time, and walking again on two feet

-
So...my foot hurts today. I had a few days of relief but this morning I woke up with a hurting foot. Had to take 2 ibuprofen so my two little projects for today may not happen. However, I can lay down, elevate/ice my foot, and type on my phone so here's a little wine blog for you. But I havevto say I'm looking forward to be able to walk on two feet again, even though the physical therapy process may be painful. I can't wait to be a functioning member of society working and traveling again, dancing and wine tasting again. For now, I can give my experience and opinion. So here goes... Topic: Wines I've had you can't go wrong with for anyone 1. Smith & Hook Cabernet Sauvignon and Red Proprietary Blend. Mom and I had a glass of the Red Proprietary Blend (their GSM) at Il Fornai in Carmel. It inspired me to visit Hahn winery and try others. Out of the Hahn and Smith & Hook wines, their Cab really stood out. In fact I liked it more! These wines hail from the Centr...

Wine "Stash", and this blog is becoming my wine blog!

I think I've already said it plenty of times but....I'm going on vacation next week! Woo Hoo! It says nothing about my job - just that it is a good time to be taking a break. There are a lot of things that I have to keep close to my vest because I'm still in deciding mode. However, just know that 2022 will be a year of many changes for me....GOOD changes! Thank you, God! So very, very thankful. I know those changes won't come without some challenges, struggles, hardships, but its all part of the process - and I'm ready for it! ALL of them. I recently made a few decisions and though I don't want to spread myself thin, I need to pursue them. I've gotten the words internally, too, that tell me that I will be able to balance it - so through God finally speaking to me (He'd been silent for quiet awhile) I know that I will be ok. But there are still some big decisions to be made so until I can decide those things, I'm keeping all of my future projects clos...
