Interested

My current feeling:
Interested.

My current thoughts are:
Today is the first day of the 3 day Essex Ringing Course; something I used to organise about 20yrs ago. This year however, we have both a new organiser and a new venue. We had to change venues because the school we’d always been based at since the school started over 35yrs ago, has RAAC roof problems, so a lot of it is out of action. I’m helping in a group covering Grandsire. The tutor is someone I have reservations about. He can get stroppy and shows off a lot. He has an extremely competent set of helpers for the next 3 days so will have nowhere to hide. It will be interesting to see how he manages.

My physical state is:
More mobile than I thought I would be.

My physical state is a result of:
After yesterdays dumbell upper body workout, I thought I would be quite sore and stiff this morning. There is a bit of soreness, but not as much as I thought. Ringing today will help keep things moving.

I will make today extraordinary by:
1) Seeing one of our learners at the Course. Hopefully they’ll have a good time and learn lots.
2) Catching up with other ringers I haven’t seen in a while.
3) Pub lunch.

My desired emotion for today is:
Charming.

I am a woman who:
Helps.

Today I will let go of:
Complaining.

Today I choose to add:
Charm.

My wins, accomplishments, gratitudes for today:
Looking forward to 3 days of watching learners progress and helping out. And of course, 3 days of pub lunches.

The thoughts that support my celebrations:
I’ve been involved in the course for 30 years and organised it for 9 of those. I want to see it succeed.

I want to improve the following for tomorrow:
Charm.

Words of advice, wisdom, encouragement, humour from my future self:
Smile, be nice.
