So things are going well in general today. At work I'm learning some new things, and I found a probably unnecessary but at least busy 'filler' project to do for a while that will keep me busy when my trainers are too tied up with urgent things to work with me. It's a good iPod project too, which makes me happy. The weather is gorgeous outside, I feel good about how I did on my Spanish exam, and tomorrow night after work I get to babysit my niece while Mommy, Daddy, and Big Brother go to the football game. It's been a great week for both
grav_ity and my non-LJ friend Tirzah, so I'm rejoicing with them.
Not such a great week for some of my other flisters (emotionally or physically or both), and I'm grateful that the Lord has helped me remember to keep praying for them every little while (
handmaiden_yane,
smor,
emmy_roo,
emmaorgana, lots of people at church). I'm notoriously bad about forgetting about other people's problems when things are going well for me, and this is an area in which I wanted to improve coming out of the other side of unemployment, so yeah... I'm grateful. And hope that, in addition to prayer, I can think of more specific ways to be an encouragement/comfort.
Tonight I'm going to the gym and then relaxing, maybe getting a headstart on homework. Feeling peaceful and content. Hoping my good mood will rub off on others.
(Actually sitting and reading Macbeth tonight might not be the best way to keep this 'peaceful' feeling going, would it? LOL Yesterday I did some scene breakdowns but I wasn't thoroughly reading it)
