Wow. Thanks

I've got to say I got the most pleasant surprise when I logged onto WordPress today to look at my stats. 23 views! That's a new record for my blog since usually I don't get more than four or five views a day. Before today, the most views I had gotten was 9 back on Saturday, May 29, 2010. So, to all those who viewed my blog today, thanks.

Also, thanks to Mister Reiner for his comment on my last entry, Negativity. It helped. In-fact, I like the words of encouragement so much, I'm going to share them here.

Every day is a new day. An opportunity to wake up with a smile instead of a frown. As long as you’ve got a roof over your head, a comfortable bed to sleep in and a full stomach, life is good. If your employment situation is getting you down, see if you can find some volunteer work to keep you busy or help some of the elderly folks around your neighborhood or read out loud to younger kids at the local library. Wash cars, clean yards, run errands, whatever. Your life doesn’t have to revolve around you – it can revolve around others. The more you give of yourself, the more you will get in return. You’ll see.

Be happy to be alive and to have people around you that care about you. Those are things worth living for. If you’re not doing anything, do something for those you care about to make their lives easier. Look around the house – I’m sure you’ll find something you can do. It’s not about what they will do in return for you, because that is not what life is all about.

I hope those words can help out other people as it did with me. It livened my day, that's for sure.

I never got into town today because I was too tired to stay awake long enough to do it. So, sometime this week, I've really got to try to get into town to look around for work. Hopefully, I can find something to apply for. I could try calling this B&B place tomorrow to see what it is they require. I spotted their number on the door of the Londis store down the road after I'd delivered Betterware catalogs, and ended up muttering the number all the way home in order to remember it. I guess this is a hint to always carry a pen and a notepad around. Would be easier than talking to yourself over and over in order to remember the correct number.

Hopefully, what the B&B requires is something I can actually do. If it involves cooking, then that's me pretty much out because I am I useless cook. It's a skill I lack. If it's just cleaning and stuff, I could do that because I've done that kind of work before. It's not something I enjoy, but you've just got to take anything you can do really since jobs appear to be hard to find recently.

Also, I've been a member of this site, formspring.me for a few days now, and although it's fun answering questions, it can die down when no-one is asking you anything. So, I guess this is as good a place as any to ask, if you'd like to ask me some questions, go to my page there, and ask something. Obviously, if it's too lewd, or something I don't want to make public, you may not get an answer. So, be careful what you ask. You don't need to be a member to ask a question, just so you know. If you decide to create an account, please leave your page address in a comment and I'll ask you something in return!
