(Thank God it’s Friday ‘Cuz I Don’t Think I Can Take Anymore)

This week at work was a lil’ dramatic. Freak-outs happened, scary phone calls were made and we all felt a little more “gee, my fingernails are sure tired from hanging on, and my stomach kinda hurts from laughing, and I also kinda want to cry.” It was just that sort of week.

It’s topsy-turvy all over though, really; not just a work problem.  I think I’m only starting to get the reality that this is Life. It’ll never settle down, never be perfect, and there are some questions I can’t answer.  I’m realizing that I do, in many ways, shape the path of my days and those around me.  Of course I don’t have total control and I’m not even delusional enough to want it, but I do have choices.

But I can choose to be cheerful.  I can choose to have faith in the face of ridicule, persevere when I am tired, and hold fast even when I feel like nobody’s watching, it won’t hurt anyone, and I really, really don’t wanna.

Today’s a good day. It’s Friday and the weekend stretches before me, Christmastime is here – there are so many ways that I am blessed.

Thank God it’s Friday… actually Thank God, period.
