My boss came in the office this morning and asked, "what's the good word?" I had I nothing to offer. I realized I need an attitude change! No more "woe is me". Maybe I can bring on my own second wind by thinking about the positive!
Positives of working:
-Insurance
-Savings
-sometimes fulfilling
-gaining skills and confidence in certain areas
-a nice walk from my car to my building on campus everyday
-a good boss and coworkers (most of them any way)
-my own office with a window
-I know little girl is in good hands while I'm at work. (but I do miss her!!)
Other postitives:
-An AWESOME husband who realized I needed a break this weekend and took care of a lot of the household responsibilities.
-I felt like I spent some quality time with Victory and little girl this weekend.
-I didn't leave the house AT ALL on Saturday...so nice.
-Little girl fell asleep in my arms at church...she hasn't done that for me for a very long time. It was very sweet.
-My "Can't leave it alone cake" turned out fantastically yesterday. YUM YUM! Butter not maragine. I think it made all the difference! (maybe tomorrow I'll leave you the recipe for it).
-Had a nice dinner with family and friends. We played a Monopoly card game. I kinda like it. In my opinion, much better than actual monopoly.
With that list of positives I'm going to leave you now. Hope the sun comes out today!!

I think I need a similar attitude change, thanks for the positive thoughts! Also, Ryan and I LOVE the game Monopoly Deal. We've gotten many people hooked. :)
Man, she beat me to it! Caitlin introduced us to Deal and we play it several times a week. And we are such nerds. We play it with our friends allllll Friday night and allllll Saturday night! :)
I can imagine it is hard to be back at work, but we have to keep in mind that a lot of people can't even find work. So that being said, you are blessed!
girl, you are so awesome and I think you are amazing! I love how you made lists of all the positive benefits from working! what a good idea !
i love that rebekkah fell asleep in your arms on sunday. those are moments to savor!
Positives are the best. What do you do for work anyway...I can't even remember what you were majoring in back in college. I love your baby girl, she's so sweet.
