On the bright side

My interview did not go as well as I had hoped and I do not think I will make it to the second round. I had kind of a quiet weekend got a lot done but nothing over the top exciting. Had enough free time to worry myself sick and get stuck in my head. Listening to my inner jerk has not been good for me.

So here is what I am thankful for today:
My bed and my pillows.
Friends that make me laugh.
A boyfriend who likes to snuggle.
An Aunt who lets me tag along even when her day would be easier without me.
Good books that take me on mental vacations every time I read.
Summer veggies and fruits.
Summer traffic during commuting hours!
A milder summer.
Lemonade and root beer floats.
Thrift stores.
Reconnecting with my sister.
Good female role models.
Email.
Trail mix.
Mitch and Daria in the afternoons.
Challenges that force me forward.
Air Conditioners.
Netflix.
Persons Unknown.
Changing relationships.
An amazing best friend.
Summer weddings.
Dreaming of what could be.

So I just need to get out of my head. Buckle down. Focus. And hope for the very best.
