"Thursday: Day after Christmas."


I was scheduled to work today (Thursday), but "on-call" to start at 5 pm. I called in like required an hour earlier, hoping that I would be needed. Unfortunately, despite my request to come in anyway, the store was doing fine, so, I was given the day off from work. (If I knew this would be the case, I could have gone home for Christmas.... [sigh]..). Oh, well, smile and make the best of it right? ... [smile].

I used the unexpected day off to take care of a few outstanding projects that I have not been able to finish yet, so, essentially, I was still quite productive today. I just didn't get to follow the plans I had in mind for the rest of the week. Maybe this is just a little reminder not to plan so seriously. Things can be turned upside down just like that. It makes life all the more interesting I suppose. I can't complain though. Other than a few hours less on my next paycheck, no harm was really done.... Hey, and it was a good day off, so it's all good.

I guess I am all the more prepared for my full day of work on Friday, and I intend to once again be 'terminally happy!"

God's blessings on a wonderful weekend, and a blessed New Year!

Your happily blogging friend,
-Jon
