Everything Under The Tropical Sun

Where have I gone? Playing catch up with all the things I left. I have to say: I love my job. I really do. Sometimes it CAN suck (especially when I’m dealing with small-minded, negative people) but on an average, I love it. It took me another three weeks to finally get into gear once more. I don’t like getting sick at all.

So now, I’m back and I can juggle my blog back into my life once more. Thank you to those of you who kept coming back. Those hits keep me keepin’ on… when I thought that maybe I should give up. Thank you. My heart and soul thanks you.

So hello blog world! I am baaack! So many things has happened… but my upcoming photos will still be from my last vacation. I’ll be posting new ones pretty soon… I’ve decided that I’ll be pouring my heart into learning pp. Sure, I know quite a number of things… but it’s not enough to excel. I have to study, study, study. How I’ll incorporate it into my already full schedule, I don’t know. I just know that I have to.

I’ll be writing about the many, many things that has happened during my “hibernation” real soon. I might have a hard time posting as regularly as I have in the past as I slowly build the routine once again but all I can say is that I missed blogging. I don’t know what magic blogging has but whatever it is, I’m in its spell.

Well, I’m back at work and had a harrowing first day yesterday. But it’s still good news and I’m so happy to be back at work (I can’t believe that I just said that!). Really, I missed going to the office and the holiday just made me appreciate how good I have it. I don’t really have a complete game plan in terms of marketing and such but thankfully, we’ve had a wonderful first day. Plenty of work for the first quarter of the year. I just hope it won’t be THAT stressful (though a little stress makes life exciting).

I was hoping I would be able to do some general cleaning at home but since my dogs were shedding like crazy, I thought it pointless to do so. My OCD was ringing like crazy during the break but not enough to make me go mad. Just another item to add to my list of things to do.

Though my life is pretty much made up of chores, work stuff, and to do lists, somehow I don’t feel like I’m wasting my time.  Some part of me is fulfilled to be able to do these “mundane” acts of normalcy. I definitely appreciate the fact that I am able to give some sort of order to my life and having my husband help out makes me feel all the more appreciated. These are things that I just have to do but doesn’t really have to rule my life, right?

Work is another thing. I didn’t realize how fun it was to be surrounded by creative people. Though we don’t really joke around that much and we’re pretty responsible with our day to day to-do stuff, I feel that I finally belong to something I am particularly proud of and I guess I can safely say that I don’t have to work another day in life just because it simply doesn’t feel like it is.

This month is dedicated to the “I’m grateful for…” because I feel that in the beginning of the year, it is good to make an inventory of the things I feel blessed that I have. To help me keep a great outlook for the year that’s just begun and keep me grounded for they are not easy to come by.

I am grateful for my work. I’m happy that I’m back to my reality.
