Day 171

Funny how when you stop writing it out and concentrating on it gratitude can slip right through your fingers like a wet bar of soap. Then it creeps back in. Life goes good for a season and suddenly you are reminded that gratitude was your word for the year. The goal was to find at the very least one thing every single day that I was grateful for and blog it out! The blogging was to keep me accountable in continuing The Gratitude Project. As you can see, THAT worked wooonders!

However! This day I am grateful. Actually, I'm grateful for lots of things this day, but I am especially grateful for the gift of memory. That God recalls to us who we once were, who we are or are on the road to becoming, and that sometimes we need to remember who we once were to right the path and get to where we are going. Savvy?

Thanks for the memories :)

Day 82

The past 10 to 14 days have brought much to be grateful for.

Brandon didn't get the promotion. It was a bit of a surprise (even Boss Man didn't expect one of the other candidates to have more experience), but it's still good. They did give him quite a nice raise and moved him off the truck and into the store to be fine tuned with one of the Assistant Store Managers. This is a HUGE blessing, not just in terms of money, but because Brandon will be having surgery on his elbow first of next month. The truck was wearing his body out. It would've taken him so much longer to heal in that position.

I passed my state boards last week. It was nerve wrecking and I was nauseous, but I passed. I am officially a state licensed cosmetologist :)

Had my first interview yesterday. At a salon close to the house. Owned by lovely men who pour back into our neighborhood. The job is mine pending that Anthony feels that I can in fact actually cut hair. So next Saturday, I'm taking my mom-in-law to be my model and bag me a j.o.b.
