Even though it's the 2nd day of the work week, even though it is the center of the week, even though I'm taking 1/2 of Friday off for a specialist appointment, man, it's a long, tough week!! I do have to say that ... once this ridiculous competition at work is over, once a girl from work returns from holidays, things will balance out way nicer! Yeah ... just in time to be laid off, I'm sure!! I can't help but wonder ... is this from age? from health? from what? My brain can be really quite active and alert and 'rarin' to go, but then there are days like these ... when my body wants to say 'fuck off'.

Gratitude:
1. In spite of my exhaustion, I'm grateful to have a job. It might not be what I want, nor inspiring for me, but it gives me money in the bank to cover my costs, and I work with good people, and for that I am glad. I know the time is coming when it might not be so, but for now, there are things I can work on, traits I can establish and a reputation I can solidify so all's good in that area.
2. I'm grateful for the fleece sheets I found at Costco - I haven't been able to replace my electric blanket yet (from the lost luggage incident), but I think fleece sheets will be lovely when the temperature drops outside!
3. I'm grateful for living close to Costo and Ikea and a wonderful mall. I don't have much money but it's nice to wander and dream. I used to do it in college and I find I'm doing it again. Things have changed, but some things have stayed the same!
4. I'm grateful for my time in college ... over the last while, I've been listening to things on YouTube about my school and found myself with tears in my eyes. I'm not sure what this is all about, but something is aching in me and I don't know what to do about the pain. What it has done is bring to my attention there is a need in me that is not being addressed. There are things I wish I would have taken advantage of when I was there, but I also know now that there were so many things going against me, that sometimes I'm surprised I got what I did out of my years there. I know that so much of who I am today and what I believe and have become are a direct result of being a "Cobber".
5. I'm grateful today for what I've learned and for the days ahead where I can still learn more.
