simple blessings.

sooo. i think it's funny. i think it's so funny how, lately, as soon as i start taking things for granted, they get taken away, just long enough for me to realize how much of a blessing they are.

for instance, i'm running low on funds right? very low for what i'm used to. to try to fix that, i thought that i'd be picking up some extra shifts this week covering for people and therefore, make some extra moolah.
so about an hour ago, i show up for a 2 hour shift, work for 20 mins, and then find out that the girl i thought i was covering for had gotten two subs to work cover for her. bam. 2 hours off the clock. and so i was little mad (not really mad, ha just a little) right?
well 2 mins before i find out that me and the other girl were covering the same shift, i find out that another girl i was planning on covering for for a 3 hour shift on friday got someone else too... just telling me now... boo.
but all that to say as i was walking away from work a little angry in my spirit i started thinking and i was like 'what the heck... ha i have a job - 2 actually - i get enough hours, not as many as i want... but it's enough... and i have been blessed crazy abundantly... so why am i complaining'
it's at moments like these when i am reminded what a blessing a job is- even when i dread going. and it's at moments like this when i am veryyy thankful to be sitting in a too-cold library and working on one of many hours of homework, feeling too full from dinner and perfectly sore from working out.
simple blessings like this abound. thanks god <3.
