Long Day

Ah, another rainbow colored calendar page. I have a chiropractor's appointment at 8 am (I find that staying in alignment helps my body continue to throw off the effects of the drugs and radiation). Then I have meetings and activities all day, and reference until 9 pm followed by a check in with the Evening Supervisor - we usually chat until 10 pm.

How do I get myself into these ridiculous hours? I don't mean to. But I love what I do and it just sort of seems natural and logical. Perhaps that is why I don't get depressed often. I am just too busy! But a good kind of busy. Doing what I enjoy with people who are pleasant. How often I thank God for my position and place of employment!

I was thinking about it the other day. If anyone asked me if I were living the American dream, I would have to say, I am living well, whether the American dream or no. Oh, sure, I don't make a plethora of money and I am often battling health issues, but I am happy and contented. I appreciate every wonderful thing I get to do, every beautiful vista I am privy to see, every fulfilling moment of sacred mystery that I am honored to be allowed to experience.

I guess what I am saying is, long day notwithstanding, I am blessed and glad of it. Thanks be to God.
