All good things must come to an end!



















My Valentine's Day was really great! Brian got me beautiful roses, a stuffed teddy bear and a box of Turtles! We bar-b-qued ribs that night and I made myself absolutely stuffed. This year was our 3rd Valentine's Day together. We also got much needed massages that morning. I love getting to spend time with Brian. Unfortunately, I must always return to Wall, to school, to work!! Blah. So that leads me to my next set of pictures.....

I had to be at work early this morning to cover for someone that took off. Well I planned accordingly and left the house 10-15 minutes earlier than I usually do! Well on the way to work I saw a deer crossing the road up ahead of me. I slowed down, thinking it was the only deer, WRONG! When I got closer to where the deer crossed the road, 5 more decided to jump the fence also. I spared the lives of the 4 smaller deer and hit the nice BIG, HUGE, 10 POINT BUCK!! This is the damage that was done to my car :( The sad thing is that I just got it out of the shop for being rear-ended in the parking lot by old people!




So the saying holds true...All good things must come to an end!

Power to Change Things

"God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference"

This lady at work is really bothering me!!  She is totally taking advantage of me.  I have worked here for almost 2 years and it has definitely gotten worse over time.  I just have a part time job, she has the full time job, but it seems like the other way around.  She constantly takes longer than an hour for lunch (While I sit and wait to take mine, ending up late if I have an appointment) and then when she returns it is almost as if she just expects me to do it.  Friday I got off at 12, well she took lunch at 10:45, and did not return until 12:30.  My parents think I should say something to her, but then I think the situation might become awkward because she would know that I was me that said something!  To make things worse, today she took off work with "Comp Time"....where did she get that from?  

There are so many things that I wish I had the power to change.  Sometimes I wonder why I am in a certain situation.  When times get hard I just have to remember that God doesn't put us in situations that we can't handle.  Sometimes I just wonder how strong I have to become before I keep getting in these situations.  

Sorry for the rant...just had to clear my mind!
