I think I'm Happy...

Yep, I'm one of those annoyingly optimistic people. I feel like I'm working my butt off in this steno program, and sometimes feel like I'm only treading water. But being in this program this long has taught me that the skill will come with time. And practice. And I'm just happy that I'm working so hard, and praying that it will pay off.

I'm waiting for the foot to be on the other shoe--I've been watching my compatriots with their computer woes and translating software issues, and feeling all superior. I just got my receipt in the mail, so as soon as I have PC to load it on, I can get the software and hook up at home. Really looking forward to that. There will likely be headaches for me too, and maybe I'll be taken down a peg, and not think I'm so computer-savvy as all that. Or not, we'll see.

I am thrilled that I am older, that this is an adventure for me, and that I don't complain as much as I hear from others. Or maybe I do and I'm just not paying attention. It hurts too much to feel so nagged by this process. Yes, there are frustrations. But why fight them at every opportunity, what can you learn from that? Dude.

I am happy that my husband is really supportive, Mister Laundry and Mister Kitchen-Man as of late. I am happy that I make time to practice at school and at home, and I make time for balance--for fun on the weekends, for cooking during the week.

And I make time for walkies, which I shall be taking now. Nuff of this blogging and talk about happiness, I'm gonna go out and be it.

Dude. Seroiusly one of your best blogs so far. Yay for kitty! I'm workin my ass off these days too so you're not alone in that. Though, it's different. You're working toward something and I'm just working. I kind of wish I was working toward something to. It sounds way cooler anyway haha. I so can't wait until I have the opportunity to be on 1st shift. Then I can have my life back. Now, I don't really have one. The price to pay to survive...

I've been walking, too. I find I prefer walking at night so I take my walk after I get off of work...off with the steel toes and on with the Nikes. A nice brisk 40 minute, 2.2 mile walk to Millie's and back. My ipod is almost permanently attached to my person lately. Hopefully my replacement headphones come soon. These Sony crappers aren't cuttin it. Anyway...awesome blog, chica. Keep pluggin and I love you!
