I finally feel like my life is back in order. I’m working steadily. I’m happy…actually…I’m content. I don’t think there’s a way one can be 100% happy. Life, after all, still happens. If you read my blog posts for the first 6 months or so of this blog’s existence, you can read nothing but negativity regarding my job. My outlook on my job has turned around completely. I feel like I’ve found my niche at work and I’m finally good at what I do. The amount of pay raises can attest for that. In under a year, I’m now making more than I ever made at Dollywood. I started way under the amount I was making there, too. My job has more leadership opportunities to which I’ve been assigned. I’m trusted more, and I feel confident. It’s a nice change of pace for my life to have contentment. The one position of my job in which I feel the most confident, is Drive-Thru. I feel like it comes easily for me. My mom was always a Drive-Thru natural. Perhaps it’s genetic? Who knows. I love my job. I guess it’s good that I do, since I work six days a week.
Can you believe it’s already September 30?! Fall is definitely upon us. The air is nippy around here. Finally. I’m ready for it. I love cold weather. Tonight, on the way home from work, I bought a coffee. I don’t even like coffee that much, but every now and then…I just love it. My coffee habit is quite strange to some. For a 20 oz cup, I put about 10-13 creamers (yes, 10-13), two Splenda, and fill the rest up with Coffee. Mmm. Cream with some coffee. Weigel’s a local gas station chain has a coffee that I’m dying to try. It’s called Kona, and it’s coffee grown in Hawaii in Volcanic Ash. They were out of coffee tonight, so I had to get my coffee elsewhere. I’m dying to try it!
You may or may not have noticed some missing posts on my blog. I’ve decided to get rid of “Eye Candy Wednesdays” and “TMI Tuesdays.” Not for any reasons in particular, but just for the fact I just don’t think it’s me…anymore. Nothing religious or anything this time. Just…not me. I’m sure I could lose some readers, not that I have many anymore. I just don’t have the viewership I used to. The fact content was missing for so long doesn’t help. Oh well. One has to be true to one’s self, first and foremost. I needed to get rid of it.
Well, thanks for sticking with me tonight. I hope you have a great day, and you are living your life to the fullest! Life is too short to get hung up on our failures. Remember…struggling is just nature’s way of strengthening us.
Peace and Blessings!
Joie
