Thankful

Today was a busy day!!  We had someone celebrate their 25 year anniversary with the State, so we celebrated with punch, cake and stuff.  We got to meet her family...they all came to see her get a plaque and clock.  It was a lot of fun.

Then I attended a retirement luncheon and met up with SW3.  She knows him.  It was a lively group and was fun to just relax and bid a fond farewell to a man that has worked on a couple of my project teams.  He's a cool guy and will be missed.

I headed home to meet up with a co-worker and her daughter. They had never seen the house and I had promised to help her, etc. It was so cool.  This co-worker is one of the few people that know just about everything about me. I wish I could describe the feeling I had, but she is a ray of sunshine and always brings smiles and good feelings when I'm around her.

Do you sometimes get the feeling that the future is ever changing and fluid? I'm totally into Florida Georgia Line's song Dirt.  It just brings up these feelings of past and future.  I don't know.  But I'm thankful for what I've been given, for what I've had, what I do have. Sometimes I forget to be thankful. I get caught up in the day-to-day, the bills, the job, the heart...and I forget to just stop for a second and close my eyes and give thanks for what I have. I must be more diligent about that.
