Some days it seems like everything is happening so fast! The minutes just dart by me, and before I know it, we are into the next day, the weekend, the next month, and poof!-- a new year!
I find myself thinking a lot about time-- how I spend it, how I can save some, where I can find more, if I'm on it, if I'm out of it, if there's ever enough.... Most often, I ask myself how I’m using it. Am I loving people enough today? Am I showing them I care? Am I being honest? Giving? Am I living richly towards God and the things that are most important?
Today, I woke up and found the day I’ve been anticipating for 9 months (no, it’s not what you think)—my supervisor is giving birth to a baby girl as I type, and I’m left to hold down a monster account and two more to boot all my by little self. Yikes!
We’ve spent months planning, downloading, and prepping. Now, this is it! And for the first time, I want the next three months to fly by. (sigh) Life has a funny way of letting you stand in the nice comfortable shadow for a little while, and then one day kicking you into the arena. A little voice is saying, You're ready! Your time to shine! Another is telling me to run for the hills.
Time to take a big girl step into my big girl panties, and grab the bull by the horns. Wish me luck.

Ms. Mandy... You have always worn big-girl-panties. You don't need luck. You have you! :) And that's plenty for any account lucky enough to have you as their executive. Your sense of humility and dedication will prevail, and time will indeed fly in the favor of you and those you serve. Hang in there. Others are because of you. -- Da Dad
