Why Me?!

Another day, I get up and think about what needs to be done. Get to all the jobs at work, start looking through old SOP's so we can update them,(thrilling), scheduling new jobs, when they will start, what materials need to be ordered, when they need to be delivered, don't forget to take the weather into consideration, could throw a monkey wrench into the whole thing, 50% it will snow, 50% just rain, 50% chance partly cloudy, hey that doesn't add up. Better have a back up plan for each scenario. 14 employees counting on you to keep them busy, they have families to you know.

Don't forget trying to get to the gym at 5:00 a.m. because that's the only time of the day you have to take care of yourself.

How about the meetings for your second job, take care of those in the evening. What? Feed the kids? How about the dishes now, and make sure to get some laundry done. Hey, pay attention to your wife. She is your best friend after all.

Make sure to chaperone the high schoolers from your church this week-end, they can't be forgotten. Any yard work need taken care of? Birthday party out of town for your cousin. New tires on the family car. Flag football tourney this weekend. Coaches clinic Saturday. Help friends set-up their craft booth for next week.

Really sounds overwhelming, and sometimes it is. I am fortunate. Thank you.

Thank you for providing me with a job(actually 2). Thank you for such helpful employees. Thank you for my health. Thank you for providing food on my table. Thank you for the clothes on our backs. Thank you for my wife, she is my best friend. Thank you for the high schoolers interest. Thank you for the roof over our heads and a yard to play in. Thank you for my family. Thank you for friends. Thank you for a chance to coach.

Thank you.
This is life, and I'm living it. Thank you.
I don't know if I deserve or have earned all this, sometimes it makes me wonder, Why me?
