  • Update on Work Situation

    Well, readers, I have news concerning my shift change at work.  According to the front office, all shift changes have been postponed indefinitely.   I am not exactly a happy camper about that, but as people keep reminding me, I need to be thankful that I even have a job.  They are, of course, right.  Sometimes, I just tend to throw myself little pity parties.  Ever do that?

    That thought leads me to thinking about how I view life in general.  Do I view it as a glass that is half-full or half-empty?  As a Christian, I should be viewing my life as definitely (at least!) half-full, however, I tend to be on the pessimistic side.  When things are going my way, I tend to think, "This seems too good to be true."  Instead, I should be enjoying what is going on in my life and thanking God for the opportunities He has given me.  When things are "in the pits", I tend to take them deeper; I wallow in my "misery".  This is definitely not a healthy attitude to have.   How do you handle the curveballs and the lobs that Life throws at you?

    I know that you are disappointed.  Praying that you lean on God to get you through this difficult time!

    @jenssimplepleasures - Thanks, Jen!  I guess I am really more bitter about this than I originally thought.  I was so looking forward to getting off this "crazy" shift.  But, alas, who knows when that will happen?  I chose to be on this shift because my husband was, but now I don't know how much more my body can take with the sleep issues (sometimes not enough ).  Also, thanks for reading!  I have gotten out of the habit of blogging, and I wondered if anyone even read my little musings anymore!
