High five for Friday

Welcome to high five for Friday! I'm excited to go to the thunder tonight! Woohoo! Thunder up!

My new job has me very busy and I'm smiling about it. I have too much energy for a slow job. I'm still learning the hard way, from mistakes, but I doubt that will ever change.

A little part of me was heart broken this week over the google reader fiasco. Like you, I've used google reader to keep up with my blogs. Like you, I'm switching to bloglovin.

On a separate note, I'm eating salad fruits and veggies all day so I can go nuts at the game! Will I lose weight? The scale will tell me tomorrow. Update will be later. Please stay tuned for silly Saturday!

Disappointment

According to legend, the church down the street from my home had Martin Luther King Jr. apply for the pastoral position. He was declined due to his young age. Another disappointment made another stronger.

I have lost count how many times something has disappointed me greatly. To make the wound sting a little more, others make it sound so easy to deal with. "Like water on a duck's back." The opposite is true. Its a mental challenge and one has to be strong to move past it. I focus my energy and mind on things that don't disappoint like my cats or my family and friends. I also focus my time on positive activities such as writing, reading, biking, and playing the piano.

What was your last disappointment and how did you deal with it?

The very best

Today’s rating is Positive.

Not because of weather though. Yesterday, I was able to get adequate help move all the boxes from my house to a storage unit and then down the hall to another storage unit. It took the bulk of the day and it totally wiped me of all energy. It was good though because the house looks reasonably livable now.

The very best thing to help with stress and live a happy life is friends and family. Since there’s no family here, I am happy to say I still have good friends who are there for me whenever. Its encouraging and helps me keep my spirits up. If you have had a rough day or week, check in with a friend and you will feel better. Thanks to all my friends for your fantastic support!
