Positivity!!!
I haven't blog or posted in awhile for the last 5 months because I've been busy and unfortunately there really wasn't anything to me positive to blog about. I have gone through a whole lot this past winter and struggles at work does not make them very much easier to deal with especially when work itself is the main struggle. You all know I do not like the section of Entitlements in Accounts Payable that I work in right now.
IT SEEMS LIKE THERE IS NO ESCAPE. I'm working hard to try to better my situation there by taking classes to get better educational requirements for a high paying job that I want, going through 5 interviews in the last 8 months even a few that have the same pay as the job I'm doing now in order to gain new skills. Gotten along better with a few other my Co-workers. However, a few others' that have that negative attitude I believe has effected my attitude towards work. Makes it hard to me to come home to and I have no one to vent with me about life's problems with my parents being hours away.
Though, I've come to realize that not now there things there that I can not control and maybe I need to put it in God's hands. And with that I'm not going to talk about negativity at work anymore in this blog. I'm thinking if I do it could be looked at by the wrong people and it would cost me dearly.
I have seem to forgotten why I started this blog in the first place. I want to show positive things about my life, my friends, everything that is going around with it. Even I post silly stuff like Jack Bauer vs. MacGyver, Jim Carrey vs. Adam Sandler, or my Favorite Seinfeld Episodes of All Time. As silly as those were I hope that they make you all laugh when I took the time to create them. I like talking about my faith. That has been very weak but I'm trying to change it by getting to know some more people at my new Church.
Though one of the things I definitely like to talk about over the years is College Football. Last 3 years I have made predictions for each of the upcoming College Football Seasons and at the end of the review the Good, The Bad, and the Ugly of it. I want to do it again. But, this year will be different. I'm going to breakdown each of "THE BIG FIVE" Conferences and their teams including the Buckeyes. Make Season Predictions, then during the season if I can I'll list the top 5 games to watch every week including every Ohio State Game and make game day predictions. Sort of one of my fantasies of being a College Football Analyst or College Football Blogger. Who knows one day somebody will take a look at it and ask me to volunteer as a guest blogger so look for my College Football Stuff this coming Fall.
Back to my point. There has been a lot of positive things going on with my life lately. I was able to get a lot more track & field assignments this year officiating. Many of them were just more Junior High Meets but I was able to be one of the Umpires for the Div 3 Central District Meet and the Div 1 Regional Meet at Pickerington. Definitely moving up in the officiating world. Also, I have been busy the last few weeks. Went to my friend's wedding and actually got the garter. Doesn't mean anything but hoping it does. I also camped out in the wilderness with some new friends last weekend and saw some fireworks with them. This weekend I finally got back on the racing wagon and raced up near Indian Lake and won these pair of Shoes.
I was invited by friends from college I ran with and I got to go Jet Skiing as well. Couple more things lined up for this summer but just I few that I have shared so far.
I'm just want to make this blog be about positivity and fun. Trying new things, relearning old stuff you may forget, but mostly just living life. I still want to keep racing until I feel I'm too busy were I can't consistently do it any more and just run to keep in shape. I plan on Racing the Half Marathon in Columbus this October in hopes of PR'ing and reach for under 1 hour and 10 min which I'm a few seconds away from. Even if I don't get there at least I tried and work for it.
I feel the people I work with in which some that are not married are not living their lives positively and it can bring down everyone's attitude. I HAVE MADE THE DECISION TO NOT LET HOW THEY FEEL EFFECT ME!!! I'm going to keep working hard and plugging away in order to live my life the way I want it to be.
I learned a great lesson from the Service today. "Put your Faith in God because of what he's done and Not what he'll do for you"
It hit me because I expect God for certain things and not fortunate for what I have been given. The things I want may come or they may not. Yet, I can not lose faith in him or in the goodness of those positive people around me in my life. THAT IS WHAT I WANT FROM THIS BLOG.
Running is like life, there will be obstacles in the way such as rain, snow, tough terrain or maybe unfortunate setbacks, but I have to keep moving forward and keep completing. Though I may need help along the way just in a encouraging way and who knows good things will happen I believe they will if I start to believe with a Great Positive Attitude. Thanks for reading I promise more funny and positive things to come. That's my 2 Cents!!!
