Good morning, everyone!!!
I know the memes say 3 a.m. and my mornings on these weekends start at 2 a.m. but it is pushing 3 a.m. before I am even coherent ;)
I'm on coffee number two so soon very soon I'll be wide awake and ready to start this day. I hope anyway.
Bug had his football game yesterday. They didn't play as well yesterday as they did last Saturday, but I believe that was more due to how hot it was and their uniforms are black. When they came off the field after the game not a one of those kids had a dry head from sweating so much.
I did enjoy watching him once again though. He really made me smile. I noticed all the coaches using him to assist them in demonstrations and such during their practice. He's all about keeping an eye on where that ball is at all times and his main objective is to make sure it doesn't go anywhere. I watched him toss a kid out of his way last evening because the kid was trying to keep him from his main objective :) LOL.
Just like any other time we're getting ready for anything big at work, our ice machine keeps acting up. It's not so much the machine as it is the outlet it is plugged into. It keeps blowing and we keep telling them we need a knew plug. Hopefully, they take us serious before too much longer because the message of NOT allowing the ice people to deliver did not get passed along and so guess what, our ice chest is full again, errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......
I was so tired by last evening I did end up going to bed before dark again. It's okay though because I never seen any light once I closed my eyes and sure didn't know a thing until hubby called at 2 a.m.
Today I put in the final big order before the festivities :) I'm hoping to get out of there on time and get home to get a few things done before I hit the sack tonight. I go back to my normal get up at 4 a.m. tomorrow and back to my normal work schedule. Tomorrow the new dress code also goes into effect :)
I did let myself get a bit aggravated yesterday, but I also let it go more quickly than I would have normally. I'm of an age where I know you can't change people. I've also lived long enough to realize if you can't change it, let it go.
The sad part is I hate to see others suffer for the lack of compassion from those who are supposed to love them. Which is where my aggravation comes from. I guess you could say I'm fiercely protective of the feelings of those I love.
This often times brings out a side in me that just wants to make up for the lack of to those I adore. Which probably isn't so good either, but hey, I just want those around me to know they are worth loving no matter how someone else makes them feel. Because it isn't an issue with the one I love but a warped issue with those making them feel unwanted and unloved.
Just showing up isn't what it is about. Being present in the moment, letting that person know you are proud of them, proving to them you are there no matter what for them. That's what its about. Everyone needs some validation in life. To know at that single moment in time they are solely the one in your thoughts. The object of your attention.
Life is busy for sure. But we each need to take time out once in awhile to show the ones we love how much they mean to us. Let go of our own needs and wants for just a second, to let them know their needs and wants are important too.
I've lost enough people in my life to know life is shorter than we think. I know personally, I never want those I love to ever doubt for one moment that during my lifetime I truly loved them. I want them to know I loved them with my entire being for who they are, not what I expect them to be.
I love it when people pass down judgement when they're only present when they decide to be and that presence is only there to judge when they are available.
What you see when you chance to be around for that moment is probably NOT what it truly is. Just sayin'...
It is the day to day that determines what is not an off day. So if you find yourself witnessing something you thought was different, maybe you should give it another try, on a better day for the people you are judging.
People disguise judgement as opinions. Opinions are formed by seeing. However, judgement and opinions also need more than random to figure out. Just a thought...
Well I guess I should step down off my soapbox and get this day underway.
Everyone have a lovely day!!!
Blessings to all!!!
