Back to the old grind!

So today was back to work. Back to getting up early and wondering just what to wear. What to take to eat for lunch if I got the chance to eat lunch. Wishing that I had another week to stay home. Dreading the drive into work with everyone else.

I woke up with Mike and beat my alarm clock by 15 mins. I got out of bed and headed into the shower. I was actually ok going back to work. I hadn't looked at anything work related for 10 glorious days. I had move into a new office and my stuff hadn't even been unpacked yet. The day started off with a bang and just got busier. I have really some big things I need to do like hire new testers and schedule the schools for Jan.

I am still adjusting to the working world. I have pondered on what I would like to do for the next 15 or so years. I don't think it is testing though. I have decided I need to go back to school. I think I will pursue that in a year. I am still figuring out what I want to be. But I am pretty sure it will be in the health field. Perhaps be a nurse or do PT or something like that. I'm excited about the future and the many things it should have in store for Mike and I.

So here is to the women who work and to the women who stay home. I admire you and your lives. I am pretty sure there is not just one way to make it through this world and I know the only way to do it right is to listen carefully and follow the Lords will.

On a side note- it's the Christmas Season already. Black Friday came and went. I went and had a pedicure on black Friday. The lady making my toes and feet look great asked me how long I had been out shopping. I said I haven't. This is the first place I came. I called Mike to ask him about some deals I had seen and he said... Be careful at Walmart they have mobs running up and down the aisles. I said no running here. He told me about some guy getting trampled. That happens every year I thought. Then I heard on the news the story. I felt so bad for this young man and his family. How sad is it that people push and shove for "things." They aren't even things you get to take with you when you die. The real shocker is how mad the people where when they were told the store was closing because someone had died. They screamed at the employees and kept on shopping. Has life become that cheap? Do people really value "things" more then they do life? That just makes me sad. The world has changed since I was a kid or even a newly married young person. I shall say a prayer for the family of Jdimytai Damour. Come on people lets be kind to one another!
