Today Is The Day!


Today I worked really hard to make things perfect with some issues at work. Perfect doesn't exist, but I tried to dot all of my i's and cross all of my t's and be at the right place at the right time, etc. I am still a little behind, but will catch up in the morning. I stayed late and got my desk organized. I can't really talk about anything I actually deal with, because it would be a violation of patient privacy laws, and I am glad those laws are in place to protect people.

So...I just want to say again that I feel so lucky and blessed and that I will move forward in my life to do as much good as I can in the world. My days of feeling sorry for myself are over. I know we all have stories and some people's stories are written on their bodies while others are written on the soul only (I assure you that if it is written on the body, it has been transcribed to the soul, as well).

My house is a MESS and I will clean it instead of being lazy this weekend. My desk, however, is not a mess anymore, and I can start with a clean slate tomorrow.

What was good about today? I shared some inspiring stories with some people who needed to hear them. They wanted more information, which I provided. I got paid to perform my job duties. I got home safely. My husband was here to greet me. My mother is doing better today. My son and I spent time together (going to the doctor, but still, had time together). My son and I got vaccines we needed. I ate french fries with gravy and it was pure decadent yumminess. I talked to my good friend on the phone. I learned new things. I found a source of inspiration: another person's blog. How someone can emit such bright light through a blog is a mystery to me, but I am benefitting from it!

Oh, and just a little icing on the cake, my vegetables are growing! They still don't look like vegetables, but they have emerged from the soil and are getting more fully plant-like on a daily basis! (The above picture is from another garden, not mine, but I will put up some pics of my "begetables" later.)

I'm hoping that you'll be one of those neighbors that comes by with a bag full of veggies and says, "Take these! We have way too many to eat ourselves." ;-)

PS. Loved your post. Puts things in perspective.
