Get Recognized

My boss asked me to do more training and review today with the contractors.  So I did.  I came up with some more training material, outlined everything and did all the corporate crap you should do.  She actually publicly complemented me on the work I did, how well done and clear and concise it was and sent it on to the Director with kudos.  I was surprised.  I know it's all corporate BS, but it still feels good to be recognized.  : )

I received a postcard from Taiwan today.  It wasn't even a registering type postcard.  One of my original postcards went to this 17 year old kid in Taiwan.  I had put my return address on it and she sent me a postcard back telling me thank you and that the one I sent has been her favorite so far.  What a sweetheart! 

The kid sent a postcard to Oklahoma today.  It was so cute.  She wrote on the postcard, "Are there a lot of horses in OK?  I want to be a cowgirl!"  I hope she starts getting some soon.  Maybe there will be some at the new house waiting for her considering I changed our address last week with postcrossing?  I hope so!

I'm supposed to get the key to the house tomorrow.  I cannot wait.  Sitting through work is going to be pure torture for me!  Thursday I am going to go over and start doing loads and loads of laundry that I've been saving and hopefully transfer the contents of the fridge.  Then Friday the movers are coming.  I hope this move is the beginning of a good chapter.

Today I am grateful for my daughter, for having a reason to look forward to checking the mail, and that we're down to two days til the move!
