I’m slacking again. Why is it sometimes too difficult to find time to be grateful? No, let me correct that. It’s really easy if I just squeeze about 5 seconds of my time to acknowledge what to thank for…inside my busy head. That’s exactly what I have been doing the past days again. Cheating. Working my way around this commitment. Keeping track with…Keywords!

Monday - MYWATCH. (I finally wore the Filipino flag-inspired watch courtesy of Miss Joisce Abiera ( http://joiscee.multiply.com ) -Thank you, Joisce! I now wear my flag proudly. Wearing my heart on my sleeve so to speak—-not really. Wearing it on my wrist! I’ll post a pic next time. And thank you to my sis-in-law and bro-in-law for picking it up for me in Suisun…

Tuesday - MORE SIDEJOBS. Even if sometimes I still find myself wishing for a Day Booster Pack all over again. But I’m happy with my 24 hours, Lord! I’ll pack what I can, ditch what I can’t. Thank you for each side income too, however measly.

Wednesday - MI PUEBLO (again) as my visit with the hubs officially made up for my horrible encounter with GOOGLE. Yes, “theeeee” GOOGLE. They double-charged me for my domain renewal and literally sent me on a loop, hitting brick walls in all directions trying to get a refund. A thousand ugly words, some-all-caps screamin’, underlined and red-highlighted phrases in an email I sent them later…they finally gave my money back. And two emailed apologies. I’m truthfully embarrassed by all the things I put there, but I needed to make it right. Good thing they made it right. During the seemingly hopeless process, I discovered in some forums that I’m not the first one who experienced this. It’s funny how some people need to wait for others to have a cardiac arrest before they act on such a simple no-brainer thing. But well. It’s over. They gained a little human touch in their daily grind. And I have some money back for ice cream. Yeah, it really wasn’t that big a figure. *BLUSH*

Thursday - BEAUTIFUL DAY! I’m really just squeezing this blog before I stick my head back into slavery again. Writing relaxes me and puts things into perspective. And oh, it was a beautiful day today! I was finally able to walk off my entire lunch break without getting rained on like yesterday. Can you imagine yesterday…getting rained on and then the Google dispute?

God really has a way of undoing things and making up for rough days. We just need to keep hanging on…
