Positive Post Tuesday

lisamarcia — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 20:22:00 +0000

Hello all! I’m still getting in the swing about posting daily. It’s been a struggle with me working full time to blog everyday, but this guy’s blog has made me want to be “better” at blogging, if that’s a gift or talent or whatever you would call it. Genius maybe…? Whatever the technical term for a “good blogger” I’d hope someone would enjoy my random thoughts of the day like I have so many others’.

On to my Positive Post of the Day:

When I decided to write today I couldn’t really think of a major stand out moment of positivity. I could think of a couple things, but nothing that would get a 5-star positive rating.

As I was on the phone with my husband I realized after our conversation how grateful I am to have a job in this economy. As I sit here at my desk and hope that my boss doesn’t quite notice I’m not researching every second of the day…I thought wow…I couldn’t ask for a better job, a better boss, and although its not my lifelong career choice I enjoy being stretched in my work environment. Not everyday, no…im not that upbeat, but overall I’m learning. Im not bored which is by far the worst thing to be in a job. It makes your mind wander. I am so thankful to be able to work because there are far too many people that can’t, much less have the option right now.

My positive post also needs to include an encouragment to those that don’t have a job or those that hate their jobs. For an entire year into our first year of marriage I couldn’t land a job to save my life. I worked many odd jobs, but even with a full-fledged certified bachelor’s degree in Business Marketing, no one wanted to hire me. That was tough time, but I realize NOW as I think most of us do, after God works, that he was watching out for me the entire time. Never could I have imagined I would be treated like I am at a job, trusted with things beyond my years, and have already gained the respect of my superiors. Never would I have imagined getting a promotion 6 months into being at a new job, being able to have a somewhat flexible schedule and be close to home so my commute isn’t a bear here in SoCal.

That’s all for today! While I wouldn’t call it my dream job, I can call it my answer to prayer! And thats something to feel positive about!

ROCK YOUR VOTE!

So today, Im header to my family’s house to have the not so ordinary BBQ 4th of July Food. I think we’re making Mexican food, which is awesome as I have a special guacamole I like to make! The hubby is doing a concert in Missouri for something like 75,000 people or something and I think actually John McCain is supposed to be there. Pretty cool. I had a 4 day weekend and can’t believe that day two is already here. Why does this happen? Youre work weeks go painfully slow, but when you have a couple days off its like you’re on a jet plane, propelling you into the following work week. Ok, thats my rant…sounds like I need a vacation!

Have a Happy 4th Everyone!

FruWHAT?

There is this little place down the road from our house that I just love. Fruyu is the name. Don’t say it too fast, someone will think you’re givin them the verbal bird. It’s not the fanciest yogurt shop on the planet, but you get to serve yourself, pick your toppings and the best part is…its only $.38 an oz. Basically, for all you froyo lovers out there its basically Goldenspoon, but cheaper and more topping options. I got all the yogurt I needed tonight for about $2 bucks! Great little treat for a very hot day!
