Grateful

Yesterday was a very different and difficult day for Jeff at work. His company had sent out an email saying they were laying off ten percent of their employees and five people from his office ended up losing their jobs yesterday. Luckily, Jeff was not one of those employees. My heart goes out to all those people who did lose their jobs and I can’t imagine what that was like for them because many of them have families to support. Then this morning at work, a lady came in and I don’t mean this in a bad way- it was simply an observation but she had very nice clothes and the biggest, most humongous ring I have ever seen! Who thought I would see the biggest ring ever here in Provo haha but anyways I know they are very well to do because her husband is very successful. It just made me think how some people have all the money in the world and then there are those who struggle just to put food on the table everyday. I wish there was more I could do to help others but I am just so thankful that Jeff does have a job and for how hard he works everyday. I feel so blessed and thank God everyday for both of our jobs! We pray for those who have lost their jobs too and I hope that another door will open up for them. When I say I don’t want to go to work, Jeff tells me, “at least you have a job to go to.” It is very true so I am grateful I do have a job to go to everyday!

Don't Forget to Pray!

My dad sent me an email the other day with this picture and I thought it was pretty cute. If only we were all so sincere in our prayers! That dog is a good example haha.

It also came with this caption:

'Dear Lord: Thank you for bringing me to Timmy's house and not to Michael Vick's -- AMEN!'

CHEESECAKE

I have much time on the computer while I am at work but most of that time is not doing work. It is doing whatever I want to keep me entertained. (I have a very low key receptionist job and I just mainly need to answer the phone so don’t worry, I’m not slacking on my work duties.) Being on the Internet so much though, I have joined many clubs, and receive emails from different organizations, restaurants, airlines, etc. I have also entered many contests, of which none I have won, but that’s ok maybe one of these days I will. I think I have found my most favorite one yet though! The Cheesecake Factory is having this contest where you can create your own cheesecake and then they will pick and have people vote for their favorite ones. You can create up to five different ones so all morning at work I have been creating cheesecakes! I love it haha. I love food and The Cheesecake Factory so I have been quite entertained so far at work. Will this be the contest I win? Probably not, but might as well try! If you have some free time on your hands or in front of the computer a lot like me, here is the website so you can start creating!
