Day 2

Dear READER,


I can't believe it snowed! When I woke up it was just a bit wet and I though 'oh ya just another one of those days where everyone has freaked out but nothing really is going to happen'. Well that was until I saw the huge snow we ended up getting for a while. Nothing really stuck that much but it was fun to see it.

I went to the chiropractor this morning which was actually really nice. It's not as busy in the mornings and everyone is so friendly. They are open rain or shine so even though we had the snow coming the office was still open. I had some stim and ultrasound done on my arm and I got adjusted. I like being adjusted. I can move afterwards and not worry about a slight pain in my shoulder or lower back. The stim is fine when done on my back but it hurts when done on my arm and only get to a lever two. The guy sitting next to me was like on a 12 or something - I'm a wimp I know. The ultrasound hurts like no other but my arm always feels so much better the day after we do the ultrasound. Dr. Brown always puts this gel stuff on my arm before doing the ultrasound and it is kind of like vapor rub and I smelt like it all day today. But my arm is doing much better even tonight then it was before I went in. I'm down to once a week know and am healing nicely so no worries these days.


My Mum shared this thought with me today (well a few days ago but I finally got to the email today)

Time flies on wings of lightening;
 we cannot call it back
 It comes, then passes forward
 Along its onward track.

 And if we are not mindful,
 The chance will fade away;
 For life is quick in passing.
 "Tis as a single day."

It made me think, how many times in a day to I miss the opportunity to do something kind or say something to brighten someones day. Time does fly by and fast. I need to do better on not missing on the small and simple (wink wink to my blog name) things I can do to help someone else. Or even do something new.


Rebekah (little sister) asked me today, 'so have you been on any dates lately?' My reply was of course not. which then she exasperatedly said 'YOU NEED TO GET ON A DATE. What is wrong with all those guys. Go and get yourself on a date.' Oh how you love younger sisters aren't they just wonderful.


Working from home today was, well eventful. The email had a hard time working, the system crashed, and then the computer froze. It makes it a bit difficult to work from home when that happens. It made me grateful for an office. And to have the tech guy sitting in the desk next to me. I'll be happy for tomorrow and sitting back at my desk. I have learned and this was not just today but a few months I've been learning it, but I learned that I really like to keep my work and then my personal life very separate. When I come home i don't like to still have to work. I don't like worrying about work or thinking about what I have to still do. I just like to leave it at the office and come home.
When I think back on my school days I can't remember if I was like this or not. I know I always worried about projects and homework but I do remember coming home and after a certain point it was my time. I would go and watch Psych or NCIS and not worry about the projects or anything else.
I guess we all have to learn how to live a balanced life. To say this is work and then this is not. Or live with mixing them together. I think its something special when a father can come home at night and focus on his family and not worry about work. I always loved that about my Dad. I don't think I remember him working when he got home at night. I remember him watching movies and playing games with us. I admired that.

Yours Truly,


Jenessa
