Taxes & My Patio

What do these things have in common?

1. They caused a lot of stress
2. They were expensive!!
3. They are done :)

The taxes caused an unbeleivable amount of stress. Oh my gosh. And the patio, which could have served as a release, just seemed to make matters worse.

It isn't like it was a surprise that all this money was going to be moving out of the bank account, and yet somehow, parting with it was just a struggle. At the reccomendation of my boss, I have been reading Deepak Chopra's The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success. While much of this book does not come as something new to me, I am discovering that I have forgotten to practice these "laws".

In the book, Chopra talks about the flow of money. I think that the pending tax and patio expenses were acting like a dam in our lives. I feel such a release just having them out of the way. Phew!! Time to make some money :)
