I Am Thankful

Today in Canada we celebrated our Thanksgiving Day holiday. I was scheduled to start at 5:30 and being the closer figured on getting out about 10:30 or 11:00.

There were very few cars in the parking lot and when I went in everyone was just standing around. I joked a little about if someone wanted to trade down so I could leave early. Then the GM who had overheard asked me if I wanted to go home. I said sure if that was possible. Okay Steven you are heading home to be with the family.

You know on this day called Thanksgiving I am truly thankful for what I have. My family , good friends , an excellent place to work in and good health.

What more can one want? Even on my way out I asked who was winning the football pool and I am apparently in the lead.

Go Jets Go!!!

Happy Thanksgiving from here in Canada and a big thank you for reading!

The Great Energizer

I am usually tired when I go to work or teach. I get up early enough and busy all day then in the afternoon I may take a quick nap but usually there are things to do.

Getting in the car , I can hardly keep my eyes open when driving. Yawning , trying to find some good music to listen to , just following the car in front of me.

Then I get to work or in front of the class getting ready to get myself going and zowie I wake up , am totally alert and begin with the jokes and witty sarcasm people like to hear.

Later on , when it is time to leave and everyone is happy I drive home ready to hit the town. Well not really but that is what I feel like at 11-12 o'clock at night.

Work is the great energizer for me and nowadays I have to say I feel quite thankful I have work that gives me that energy boost.

Nothing like working doing something you really enjoy.

Others nowadays , are not as fortunate.
