Cat Stevens is singing to me... :) Moonshadow

I had a comfortable day. I was afraid this morning that it was going to be pretty rotten. Work is just 100% stress lately. I'm having such difficulty with the people there performing their required tasks with efficiency. I don't expect more from them than I do myself, so I don't think it's too much to ask. There is so much bitching about who didn't do this or that instead of just pulling together to get the job done. As a shift leader my role is to make sure the ship doesn't sink. Helping those who are getting behind, the extra filler person sometimes. I do get exasperated though with the attitudes around me, especially with the ones who complain all the time and the one who is disrespectful to me all the time. Unfortunately there is absolutely nothing I can do about it. Though I perform all the duties of a real manager in this capacity, I do not carry the clout.  I hope it gets better soon.

Church tonight was nice. They sang more hymns/ hymn like songs. I like those so much better than the repetitive fluff of "praise and worship" songs that they usually sing. Brent preached on how huge God is. How unknowable. How He didn't create us because he was lonely, he just did 'cause he wanted to. It was just really good to hear.  Sometimes I am surprised with church and I really like it. :-) 
I was told that I seem like a person who doesn't just do things because other people do, or because other people say that I should. I laughed. I told them that they were right, I stand on my own two feet. I'm not easily molded that's for sure.

I spent the remainder of the evening at Borders researching selling and marketing for my newest venture. I'll expound more on it at a later point. Suffice to say, I'm going to help my dad with his venture. 

I'm going to head off now. Townes Van Zandt just sang the sad ballad of Pancho and Lefty to me. If you know the song, I'm excessively proud of you.
Be well.
