The evening after the Walmart greeting and crazy driving day I received a text message. It was from my boss. But, it wasn't from Phillipe. This text was from Evan. Evan is the quieter of the two. He often stays in the office and simply gets work done. Phillipe calls him "the nuts and bolts of the operation." I see Evan every time I am at the office, but he is never the one calling me, emailing me, texting me or carpooling with me.
So, when I received a message from Evan, I was a bit surprised.
It read: "Hey, thanks for your help yesterday. I hear you did a great job!"
I smiled for the rest of the evening.

Just What I Needed!
Everything has been bugging me. My headphones won't stay in my ears. The wind blows my hair everywhere. As soon as I do the dishes my hands are completely dried out. I reapply lotion, and then I have gross lotion-y hands. My nose keeps running. Erin has been sniffling. Erin's new backpack is still sitting on the dining room table. Erin didn't do her dishes last night.
Oh, I could go on.
But, the point is, everything under the sun is bugging me. Heck, even the sun is bugging me. Whether it's too sunny or it isn't sunny enough, it's bugging me. But, I am aware that I am the problem. A sunny day? Having to put lotion on my hands? Come on, I'm the problem here.
I have spent way too much time in front of my computer looking for a new website I haven't already scoured for jobs. I have spent way too much time in a small apartment. I have spent way too much time not having adult conversations and interactions. And, I have spent way too much time with my sister.
The phone call I just received was exactly what I needed!
Last week I went to a job interview, thanks to Uncle Bill. The owner of the company was more than kind and told me that things are a bit slow at the moment, but he would be in touch with me towards the end of the month for some part-time opportunities. I was thrilled!
About forty- five minutes ago, he called me, and surprise! He needs me tomorrow! Woo hoo!
Tomorrow morning at 8 am I have a place to be! I have something to do! And the icing on the cake.... I am going to make money!
Just what I needed.
Oh, and while we were on the telephone, he said he received my thank- you note, it was very kind, and he appreciated it. A handwritten thank- you note works magic!

Thank You!
Friday night I received an email from my cousin with the subject line of "Your Blog" and the main text saying "Is awesome."
Awesome!
Occasionally I receive comments on my blog posts or emails in my inbox from readers, and I just want to say thank you! I cannot tell you how much it means to me to receive this feedback. I love reading the comments, critiques, criticisms and praise. It means the world to me that people read this blog, and take the time to write back to me.
Thank you for reading, and thank you for writing! I love writing this blog, but I love that other people love it too. Thanks for sharing it with me and keeping me motivated!
