Well, the end of the day is here. It started with a bang and I'm sure it'll end with one. Cameron was up early and really that was good because we needed them up to get them ready for Annabelle to pick them up before we left for work. And she did.
Today went so fast at work. It was so funny because I have been sick for the last couple of days and I have called Scott at approximately 7:40 each morning to let him know that I wasn't coming in because of my sickness. Well, this morning I called him at 7:40 on the dot. He said he thought, "Right on schedule", which is what I wanted him to think. I said, "Hey, Scott, I'm just calling to...uh...well, I'm at AES". He said, "Glory Hallelujah!"
I felt nice to have been missed.
I think quite often we want to be missed. Don't you? so many times, we say we don't care, when really all we want is for someone to care about us. Shouldn't we care...back???
My goal this next week is to care more. I tried this today and the day went so fast. I spent the entire day doing my work, of course, and putting out fires. That's what I call it. I fix things all day and make little decisions as to what needs to be done here, wouldn't this look better over here, what do you think about this, or that. It's no wonder that at the end of the day, I just want to sit on the couch and be a couch potato and watch the tube all night. OH!!! Psyche comes on tonight...
Anyway, back to the original thought. It felt good to care for other people. It's much like a smile, so I hear. It takes more muscles to frown than to smile. Well, I believe it takes less strength to care than to not.
I'm off for an evening with the grandsons.
