More

I am not happy just living an ordinary life.

Waking up everyday and going to work.
All the time doing the best job I can do.
No matter what happens day to day, I seem to want more.
Today I connected with many children that I work with.

My heart tells me that I can be more and achieve more.
Over and over again, I keep dreaming of making a real difference.
Really affecting the lives of the people I come in contact with is what I want.
Everyday is one more chance to reach out and achieve more than I can dream.

Taking Shape

It has been a very long time since I have written in my blog. Yes a lot has happened in all aspects of my life.

In my work life I started a new second job. I was hired to work at a foster home for children with Autism. So far I am finding it very rewarding, challenging and very enjoyable. I truly believe in what they are achieving and in there vision, and I am excited to be a part of it. At my full time job I have over come all my new challenges with the new students I have been assigned to work with. I also strongly feel that I have been building some strong relationships with some of my co-workers. The few things I feel I need to improve on is showing up on time and doing more to help the students I am working with.

With some related news I am doing well with my finances. Now with a second job I have been able to pay off some people, lower my loan, and to build my savings. All I really need to do with my money is spend less and I will reach many of my goals. The other work related thing that happened is I was injured at work by a student. On a negative point my knee has been sore for almost a month now. I am going for physio every Monday, Wednesday and Friday after work and have to go and get an MRI.

Over all I am getting very excited about my life and my future. I can see a lot of my goals starting to really take shape.
