Persisting and consistently staying energized – 3/4/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I have not given up and won’t. I’m better today although it hasn’t been easy. Only God is my witness and validates my efforts and the challenges. I pray for God to guide my speech, relationships, and be a good person. I try to ignore the chaos and not…

Putting yourself out there – 3/1/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. As I get older I am more worried of putting myself out there, I worry too much and in the end it works out. My son had an amazing morning. He was on fire! He started his soccer season and today was his first official day. He did so…

Friday reflection – courage to not give up – 2/28/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. Sometimes my mind turns to doubt. I try to tame this part of me and I haven’t been able to. My mind takes over and I get nervous when I start something new and don’t have feedback. They must assume I know it all and I don’t. I had…

Seeing days of challenges – 2/27/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I like the work I do, but the processes are slow moving. I have had quite a few tasks that have cause a challenge for me and putting me behind. I don’t have time to waste, maybe it’s just me. I’ve waited 2 days, maybe I can wait one…

Down time – 2/25/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I got lucky today that I had some time to breathe. I am glad that I got to pick up my son from school. I’ve been working diligently trying to understand everything and get up to speed. Almost all my co-workers are new. I still have more to learn.…

Friday reflection – putting things into practice – 2/21/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. I’m learning a lot of “don’t s” that happen here and I say that from experience. Things are done loosely, not a lot of documentation. I’m going outside of my role and being asked to work on things that I feel aren’t part of my role. I was productive…

What is my role? – 2/20/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. We’re having chaos at work, but that comes with each industry, but I’ve always been clear about each role I’ve had except here. I was hired to do financial work, but now I’m a bit confused because I am not sure where my role starts and stops. I’m doing…

Showing up for others – 2/19/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It’s my turn to give back and uplift others. The ladies here have been good to me. Now my turn came to do it for one of them that has done a lot for me. Four of the ladies have guided me through a lot of the confusion, but…

Surrounded by the same struggles – 2/17/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. It seems things run slow here. It takes quite a bit of energy to get tasks completed. It seems like I will have to plan, adapt, and be patient. Working silently helps to get through very detailed tasks, the many moving parts. I’m slowing breaking barriers. I’m seeing breakthroughs…

At church – 2/16/25
I hope everyone is doing okay. The pastor had a wonderful message today at church with the following topic, “God is miracles (James 5:3,4)!” What trials are knocking at your door? What trials did you already have in your life? I have had my share of them both self-made and brought onto me. What do…
