          Yup, you can choose to be happy and choose to be not offended. It takes some practice, though! And you have to WANT to mean it!! LOL that’s the hard part… tricking your brain that you mean it, but it can be done.

            Love what you do and you’ll never work a day in your life! I started out turning wrenches and getting dirty and thought that it was the life. I fought the climb up the ladder for a while because I didn’t want to be the “paper pusher” everyone disdained. Once I made a little rank, though, there was really no point in stalling. As I moved up, I got more responsibility. Now, I’ve been at this job for a while and I am essentially a manager of personnel. I get them trained, fix their pay, send them to school, and make sure there are enough folks left over to fix aircraft and do the odd detail here and there. I thought I would hate it, but I make a big difference in these Soldiers lives and I can see it daily. If there stuff is messed up, I get to fix it. If they need a school, I get to send them, and if someone takes advantage of them, I get to step in and help. I may be a paper pusher, but I am an effective one. I think that if you’re happy at your job, its a wonderful thing, but most duty positions are what you make of them. I hope you like what you signed up for and it’s really unfortunate there is no advancement in your current position, otherwise I’d advise you to stay put! Advancement is good, though, IMO, and sometimes so is change. I hope it works out for you though. It’d suck to hate your job. You spend half your days doing it and in the big scheme of things, it’s not worth wasting half your days in a job you hate.

                    First, good for you for having the courage to call the cops. Now at least he is in jail and it really is the neighbors who make or break a neighborhood. I know how hard it is to do what’s right when the culture in a community tells you not to. Second, so sorry about your home. I am not one who believes in coincidence, but in this case, it may have been just that. Makes me want to go get another dog 🙁 Glad to hear that the pets are ok and that not tooooo much was taken. I hope you’re doing ok.

                            Just a fun little bump to see how folks are doing now that the year is 3/4 over.

                            Mine are to reduce my debt, maintain my fitness levels, and earn college credits and I’ve earned 12 credits, maintained my fitness levels, but my debt is still up there…
