Top 5 Tuesdays (8)
I've had kind of a rough week/weekend. So, please excuse me if this post isn't up to par.
1. When life gets tough, and I mean when you are pretty miserable, in order to stay sane, you have to be able to find the good in everything. Even if it is something very tiny, if it's good, it counts. If you can finally make it to where you can find the good in everything, life will be much easier. When you can find a way to smile through the tears, then know that you have accomplished something some people never do, and that you're gonna be okay. I've realized that this is where I am. Sometimes I need to vent to people, and sometimes I get really frustrated. But when I calm down and think rationally, I can find the good. Which then allows me to move forward. Some days are harder than others (like my last few days), but it really feels much better when you're able to get to this point.
2. So, I've got this friend and her name is Mary Brooke. Unfortunately, our schedules have become complete opposites recently. So, we try to hang out as much as we can, when we can. We did so last night. We went to dinner around 8 and then I went to her place and we hung out and just talked until after midnight. It feels good to have one of those friends around. Especially in person. I don't know if she knows how much I really do appreciate her presence...because I do.
3. Grace and Tommy Stanton are coming to Birmingham this weekend. I am speechless and beyond excited. Like I really don't know what to say. Yay!!
4. I was able to go to an old friend's wedding this past weekend. The drive there and back turned out to be an adventure in itself (that's a story for another day), but it was really good to see her. I don't think we had seen each other since either 2008 or early 2009. So, it had been a while, and I have missed her.
5. There is a possibility that I might have this weekend off. Our new fitness center equipment came in last week and the workers scratched the floor. So, it's getting re-done. If they do it when we want them to, we will be closed Friday through Monday. And after working about 13 weekends in a row, this weekend is going to be heaven for me. So naturally it's going to fly by. How nice.
Bonus: Everyone has the right to have at least one guilty pleasure. Mine is the TV show One Tree Hill. I love it. I discovered it some time in January or February and I caught up on 8 seasons within a matter of months. Literally watched every episode. I thought the series was coming to an end after 8 seasons (it ended a week ago today), but I just read online that they are going to have one more season. I am beside myself, and I don't care what anyone thinks :)
