HAPPY END OF MARCH!!!
Yes... I know it has been way to long since I have blogged... but I really don't feel like I had anything interesting to share!
I have been dragging through the days the past couple months, however, now that the weather is much more lovely, I'm beginning to feel more energized!
Today is the "END OF THE MONTH" at work... which means everyone else is doing yucky paperwork - while I sit here... at my desk (maybe clean a couple things if needed) but mostly sit at my desk!
This job is beginning to wear on me! I think the thing that I dislike the most is that I am not needed! I am pretty sure that if the other two gals in the office wanted to, they could do my job... (which they did for 4 months before I was hired) - making me feel VERY disposable. Not feeling needed or appreciated at work stinks... and makes it really hard for me to keep a joyful spirit some days. (Thankfully... my amazing husband is good at making me laugh.... I LOVE coming home to that man). There are many other things about this archaic office and my all-knowing boss that I could rant and rave about... but instead I will just share with you all that I am CONTINUING to look for a different full-time job!
I have been applying to a number of the Nursing Homes and Assisted Living places around town (I REALLY ENJOYING WORKING WITH THE GERIATRIC POPULATION). So, for now, I am trying to wait on my Jesus, learning about contentment, and trying to do the best work I can where I am today.
Jordan has just started some part-time work at NDSU (which will turn into full-time work for the summer) - working for Aaron Carlson (a friend from church)! He enjoys manual labor and seeing the physical progress of the work that he does! I'm really glad he enjoys his work so much - and he continues to excel in all of his college classes! He will graduate on May 16th, 2010 with a double major in Accounting and Business Administration! I'M EXCITED... and pretty sure I need to make a sign or wear a customized "I LOVE JORDAN" t-shirt for the occasion!
We are heading to Minot this weekend to celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ with the Klingbeils! (I have a feeling my spirits will definitely be lifted after this weekend!... I can't wait!)
Wish you all a very happy spring! GET OUTSIDE!!! The weather is amazing! And I'll try and come up with something interesting to blog about... but I'm not promising anything!
Blessings!
I hear ya sister! That's exactly how I feel in my new job. Glad to know I'm not the only one who feels very useless where you once felt useful somewhere else! I pretty much come home and vent every day how I spent another day bored and sitting at my desk where as I once used to walk my bum off all day long running back and forth...
