Thanks God

Have you ever thought that God was teasing you? I do. So summer starts and I don't have a job, but, whatever. I went on a vacation with friends for a week and then VBS the week after. So I was busy. Admittedly I whined and couldn't get a job. Told God about it, but I was fine not having a job, I mean who isn't. Anyway, I got a random job weeding last week. I did some gardening for one of my grandma's friends earlier in the spring. Well, evidently her neighbor needed some gardening also done. So I was recommended. Then that neighbor has proceeded to tell others about me, at least 2 other people. So in addition to that, these people seem to be fairly well to do, and are terribly generous in paying me. 


Okay, so I was like okay, thats cool. God's being funny and blessing me for no reason. The part where He's teasing me is that I did maybe mention that I wasn't terribly excited about weeding and mulching so much. Also I wondered what kind of job I would have in the school year and how I wouldn't have so much time when school and Smart Start started. I mean most of the gardening is just fixing it up, and then maintaining it. The first lady (the neighbor of my grandma's friend) now needs me to only maintain, which will be fairly easy and only like an hour, and in the mornings that's FANTASTIC. And the second lady whom I shall continue working for has little else of weeding to do, in addition to mulching. I don't know if they need me to maintain their garden, but whatever.


 So here's the funny part. There's a 3rd lady. I kid you not, I had bordered on complaining(okay yeah I did, like a dirty Israelite), I was like, I'm thankful, but maybe I could be jobless again sometime. No I get this lady who, in addition to needing some gardening, needs help with housecleaning, and babysitting. If ya don't know, these things consist of what I have done of the past 5 years as work. Just random gigs here and there and a couple steady jobs doing, well cleaning and other odds and ends jobs. 


Like what do I do? Jobs in my life have basically consisted of such things, that and some secretarial stuff (if that's what you call being Litch's right hand person for a few years).


So needless to say, I'm suspicious. It's one thing to get blessed, but I didn't DO ANYTHING! If anything I'm worse!


How have I even gotten jobs in my lifetime. I don't know, they just pop up. I never really try to get them, they fall into my lap. Word of mouth is how I roll. Someone tell me that is just too easy. I mean admittedly I do have to work harder than the average joe, well unless you work grounds and then I don't. When i say work harder I mean in few hours I work in time, I work physically harder than other jobs typically do. These are jobs people are like, oh, well I don't need a job! However, I'm plenty of others work hard also, even harder, but on average it is a bit more difficult work. Especially compared to Robby. Boy works like 50 hours a week. Sitting.....


So I finished the Ouran High School Host Club Anime.
Thanks to Steph again for giving me something to do in my spare time, other than enhance my knowledge.

Best late night talk show host has to be Craig Ferguson.
Guess what Saturday is? That day I don't work! and will hang out with friends just cuz I can!


SO.. I couldn't think of anything else to write. And in those few moments in which i was speechless I thought, let me make a list again.


Non-specific list of things that aren't probably related other than I thought of them.

  1. Atlanta, Ga. Only city that took longer to get out of than New York.
  2. Hard Rock Cafe is probably one of the COOLEST things ever invented, you need to go there. Maybe get a salad tho, and a burger only once.
  3. Adventists: can make loafs, out of what you may ask? veges and SOY!
  4. Dogs chew on things, it's not a cliche! 
  5. For the record, the dog ate part of my Doctor doll, and the doll is now disfigured. I posted this on facebook as "Okay, that dog chewed on The Doctor! he is now disfigured...." you can now see how there might be some misunderstanding. I don't beat dogs... Ever.
  6. I still haven't sent out thank you notes. 
  7. I have issues with dreading things
  8. I have issues with anxiety in general.
  9. The Sims 3 game steals your life away, and it is just that much fun wasting your life on it.
  10. I still think if we can split an atom, we should be able to plug up that stupid oil spill! I will donate money to fix that!
  11. I like to take baths and read, yeah everyone should do it.
  12. I had some weird hand eczema, which SUCKED.
  13. I haven't been to the hospital in so long I just want to get a kidney stone so I can go back and start asking them questions about their career. I'm going into the medical career.
  14. Okay, btw Kidney stones do suck and are serious. They can back up the kidneys leading to the painful failure of the kidneys in general. The pain has been described by others as the worst pain possible. I think it might not be, but then again I don't have one (well that's bad enough for the hospital, which is what most people refer to and what I am referring to right now) and I always say that when I don't have one.
  15. I'm a hard worker.
  16. I learn and catch on fast.
  17. For what I lack in smarts I make up with perseverance.
  18. God is a funny guy.
  19. I am a little OCD about things but I don't have that.
  20. I don't have AD/HD. Yeah I DON'T!
