Round 2 - Day 1-5

Posted on January 24, 2011 at 7:53pm 5 Comments

Well here I go again!!!!  It felt so great the first month that I have decided to keep going.

 

Day 1 - 1/20/11

Today I bought lunch for the new lady that is working with us.  I had a phone call that I was dreading and think I have lost some financial aid that I am receiving.  While I truely believe that if I did loose it that it is just an indicator of the great things that the Lord has in store for me, for a few weeks it will be an adjustment.  I worked late and then…

Day 29 - 1/19/11

Well today was a big day!  I gave several things and received lots too. 

 

I sent well wishes into the universe and prayed that my half sister, whom I haven't spoken to or seen in years had a good birthday.  She turned 42 years old today. 

 

I helped the boss with new hire paperwork and welcomed the new lady to the office.

I dropped off one of the boxes of "things" to the…

Day 27- 1/17/11

Today I took my friend to work and then home again in the evening.  My mom took my son to a reptile thing and then took him shopping, so indirectly I received clothes and shoes from my parents to my son and he had a great time with his GG. 

 

Day 28-1/18/11

I gave my friend a ride to work again.  I also gave the bosses advise on their decision to hire a new person.  I received a great dinner from my mom.

Day 23- 1/13/11

I gave good news to a friend.  Didn't write in my journal what I received but I know that good things happened. :)

 

Day 24- 1/14/11

I gave 100+% at work today.  Sometimes I think we need to remind ourselves that we do this.  I have the task of completely reentering all company information in Quickbooks and if you have ever had to do this while doing your daily tasks, you understand how difficult it can be to concentrate for the entire 8 hours at…
