A Vacation, If Only In My Mind...Ahhhhhhhh

Okay, I want to be grateful to be alive. In short, work has been so very crazy for me! You know when the song you keep humming is from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs....."We work, work, work, work, work all the whole day through...". That might not be a good sign. HA! I am grateful for work and gracefully press forward working in excellence because 3 weeks ago my co-worker/designer in my company that did my same job died suddenly of a massive heart attack. So, I have taken on his projects to care for and complete as he would have along with my own. This has left me with more work than I know what to do with, and a scavenger hunt to mill through his files and make sense of it all. Meanwhile all of us just missing his great talent and keen sense of humor. I will gladly continue to fill in the places and remind myself to be grateful for every second of breath that is in me! Through all of this workload I talked with a friend of mine last night who was headed for the beach. So, the thoughts of sunshine, and a nice breeze while watching the water go in and out became my days vacation if only in my mind. Also, trying to figure out how God came up with the whole theory of gravity and how he keeps the water in the ocean...(I think too much!), Lastly, the thought of having beach time to just read a good book, or run and play frisbee in the ocean has not been able to escape my mind today. So, here is a post of the view and vacation in my mind...smile. While I am living in this fantasy vacation world, if I could only figure out how to call the animals in to help me clean my living space like the princess did in the movie "Enchanted" I would be so set! Oh my...back to work now! Grateful again...a co-worker that is fully aware of my work life these days just brought me a Starbucks....Yummmm. She is the best. I pray your week wonderful.
