Nice People

Okay friends, (or strangers, or whoever reads this besides me) let's be real here. I have a job that I am not too fond of.

I mean, come on, does this really look that great?!


Today I felt like I was the only one who could solve a problem, dealt with crazies, and struggled through party after party. 


BUT!

A few days ago I talked with a nice lady who came in and booked a party for her daughter. The party was today. I ended up being scheduled to host their party. 

And they were simply the cutest. The Birthday Girl was 8 and darling! And they were just so nice! Completely turned my day around with their compliments and kind words. The Birthday Girl wanted me in pictures and while I was reluctant, I kind of wish that I had a copy of the pictures taken today. It reminded me that there are good, nice, happy people in the world. Which is really just great! I had to talk to them one more time after their party had finished before I left (break time)...the Dad shook my hand, the Mom gushed about how great things had gone, and two of the girls from the party (birthday girl and her friend) each gave me huge hugs! Shooosh yeah! It was awesome to feel like I was appreciated for the work I do, and just to hear their nice words. Uplifting, and awesome!

The day ended up being crazy, frustrating, and honestly a tad bit weird. But that great family from earlier made things so much better. 

Yay for nice people and yay for summer being almost over!

I Know I Have Dreams

It's been a while since I have written anything on here. And I know it's been a while. I know that the last few weeks have been crazy, and that that is part of it. But I also know that I have sat down to write here more times than I would care to admit. I know that I have a million thoughts running around in my head. I know that I want to figure out how to let the words out and have them make sense. I know I have all these ideas about what I want to do with my life, what I want to accomplish, and who I want to become, and yet I lack the knowledge of how to get there. I know I have dreams. I know I want to be somebody that people can look up too someday. I know what I love. I know I have to make choices. I know that I ramble. A lot. I know a lot of things. Maybe I will talk about everything. Maybe I will save a post or two for another day. I know that this post is going to be long.  I know that this post may be very varied when it comes to topics. I know that n...

How True This Is

I Resolve To Continue

This is the time of year when we evaluate our lives. We look at the last 364 days and ponder on our struggles and our triumphs. We look at the person we have become over the last 12 months and we plan to do better in the coming 12. This is the time of year we are dedicated to making a change, and as I sit here thinking back to this time exactly 365 days ago, I am astounded at how far I have come. Almost ashamed of the person I was then and truly proud of the person I am now. For one of the first times in my life I can say that I can see myself becoming the person I want to become. In the last year I have felt sorrow and defeat and loneliness. I have faced struggles and heartache and frustrations. But I have also felt peace. I have felt joy and happiness and love. I set goals and I achieved them. I have had experiences that have taught me so many valuable lessons, and I have met people who have changed me forever. And I am so grateful. And so as we finish out this awfully beautiful year...
