Time, work, and things to be thankful for.

So it's been months since my last post and for no other real reason then procrastination and life generally taking away my focus on this. So if there were any of you who were expecting regular posts and updates that never came I apologize for that. Any who over the last months I've been away I've been Busy with all manner of things, some painful, some joyous, but i digress. I had been looking for work for almost a solid two years before landing a good job as an assembler for braces and then I lost it. So it was back to the grind looking for employment in this awful economy and to say its been rough is a bit of an understatement. I did however get a lot of yard work done at my moms with my dad so that was a plus. I finally landed another job this last month that doesn't really pay well because its meant to be a second job and part time thing for students but it offers a online class to get a guard card to be a security guard licence which those jobs do pay well and are more full time, might end up working for the tsa who knows. Things are moving along with my wonderful girlfriend who is honestly the best thing to ever happen to me and to tell the truth I can see myself living the rest of my life with her. Now I know people would say "Whoa now Grady pump the brakes a bit your only 20 and haven't even lived life yet" but truth be told I'm not very wild, yeah I have some desires to go and have fun and be stupid but ill do that anyway. Another thing is I don't know the future so we might not stay together long enough to get to that point you never know that's the thing about life, lots of ups and downs and curve balls lots of curve balls. Speaking of curve balls one of the massive limbs on the tree in the front yard of my moms house just decided it was tired and fell down. So me and dad have been chipping away at it trying to grind and clear all the brush which is time consuming and difficult add the ridiculous 90 degree weather were feeling in southern Cali and it all leads to soar muscles and hot skin. My short 20 years on this earth have been testing and difficult but the more I look back and take stock the more I realize. I have a pretty good life, and have allot to be thankful for. So in honor of the 4th of July holiday coming up I thought it might be a good idea for people to slow down and take it all in. Look around and take stock in your life and reflect on the choices you have made and the things you have to be thankful for as we celebrate our nations birthday. Thanks for dropping by and I hope to talk to you all soon.
And as always I'm the well known nobody and these have been my thoughts.
