Okay OKAY!

So, last I left you, I felt like my life was in shambles again. And it was, but as I need to consistently keep reminding myself is that it always works out. So, after my short tantrum and allotting myself the proper amount of time to be upset and feel sorry for myself (approx. 2 hours), I began to count my blessings and all the things that I should be thankful for and all of the lucky things that have happened to me. That list went something like this...

1. I was lucky that I even got the golf course job this summer (practically handed to me-- LUCK) because it has really TRULY helped with all of these expenses that I've had from the accident and tickets and blah blah blah! WHAT LUCK! So, this instantly made me feel a bit better.

2. I'm lucky to be alive or not in jail, or not have hurt anyone! This is first and foremost the most lucky thing of all!

3. I'm lucky to have family to help me in my time of need and lift my spirits when I can't on my own.

4. God has truly been here for me.

5. I LOVE my internship! I couldn't have found myself a better fit and I feel SO Lucky every time that I go to the school, hang out with the class and discuss things with my cooperating teacher.

6. Jordan has shown me that he can be here for me and has really been a huge help this summer. We have grown closer... maybe a comeback in the works. It is a work in progress. But I love him for what he is doing these days.

7. Happy Tails is not hell like some other jobs. As much as the employees complain, I think we all know deep down that most jobs are far worse (at least I DO from experience!) and we really love the dogs! What better job could there be? Besides being your own boss of course!

8. I <3 my pets and they really make me feel better when I've had a bad day.

9. Oh there were more and I meant to write them all in my journal that day, but I was at work that night and went straight to bed when I got home!

The bottom line is that thinking about these things made me feel empowered and I remembered that life is too short to be that upset. I stopped, accessed the situation and came up with a solution. That is how you do it folks! And so over the past week or two since I have been feeling great! I love my internship, my classes seem like that are going to be fun and I just feel great!

Smiling and Laughing each day helps too! I think that is an important rule of life.

Well, I have to get to bed soon! I have to work at the Golf course tomorrow! Wish me luck on tips! I need it! Only two more days working there for the year! WHOO HOO! I am getting too busy with school to carry two jobs. I'm FRICKIN' TIRED! Can't wait to slow down!
