Changes and Thankfulness

I'm not big on changes...especially "uncontrolled" change. Leaving for 10 days for a mission trip was great! We had such a fun time and were very blessed to be a part of it. However, coming home was a shock! There were so many things that I had missed at work and had to play catch-up all day yesterday. This wouldn't have been such a problem except for the fact that yesterday was our first summer orientation. this meant a change in my schedule, wardrobe, tasks and pretty much everything else! It was crazy! Luckily, I had been a part of a few orientations last summer when I was first hired so I knew what to expect - a little. 

Change has always been something that I dislike but have obviously had to live with for my entire life. When change occurs I become negative and end up dwelling on the bad. This is something that I know I need to work on...and I'm starting now!

I was inspired by a friend's blog to start writing a list of things I'm thankful for...especially when everything seems to be "negative". I know that Thursday's are my designated "thankful" days but I seem to be desperate of some thankfulness in my life today! So here it goes...

1. Sunshine
2. Music in my office
3. The chance to help others from my very own office!
4. Candy runs into the other offices
5. Being surrounded by friends in the workplace
6. Hearing much laughter in the break room
7. Having Fridays off for the summer
8. Yoga
9. My hubby being home to greet me when I get home from work
10. Friends with extra hair ties when I'm in need of one!!! :)

That will do for now! I'm already feeling better.
