O.k., so I am home for spring working for my parents at their Foot Solutions store. It has never been my favorite job...we are working with people who have foot problems, their feet hurt, thus they are not always the happiest. Even if they are happy, sometimes their feet are extremely difficult to fit...you can bring out shoe after shoe after shoe and there is always just one little thing wrong. The point is however, that as I have worked these past two weeks, I have simply been grateful that I have a job. Not only that, but I am thankful for the fact that my body is healthy and able to work.
Today for example, I had a lot of work to do. We had to move a lot of things around so that the store would be able to accommodate the Medicare program. I had to move multiple shelves, build another shelve and organize a lot of things in the back room. From the time I got to work, to the time I left, about 6 hours later, I was busy, hard at work. When I got home, I was spent, all I felt like doing was sleeping...what a good feeling it is however, to work hard and to know that you have accomplished a lot! I am so grateful for a job, so that I can earn money for school and for a healthy capable body!
I accomplished a lot today, but I have much more to accomplish tomorrow, so it is off to bed for this tired aching body. The aching is only evidence that I am able to work hard - such a blessing :)
