Another week has came and went and I have to admit, it was not a bad week at all for me. Work is going better than expected and I am starting to get use to the tasks at hand. To me the job is easy just tedious at the same time. That is ok as long as the time goes by quick and the job get's done correctly. Like with any job, there are always a few that you wonder about because they do things different but the one thing that you should remember is; it shouldn't matter what anyone else is doing, as long as you are doing the best that you can do. Because in the end, it all comes down to you and what did you do to make a difference that day or even that week.
This can be said when it comes to personal life as well. The person who gave me the bike made a difference in my life. Now that I have finally started riding my bike it is only taking me 30 minutes to get to work. Of course it took me a while to figure out the gears on the thing but as mentioned last week, "things have a way of working themselves out" This week has not only been a good week at work but at home also. Especially the weekend when I experienced something that was not expected.
While I spoke to my friends throughout the week in New York City, it was my neighbor that needed my attention. Actually not really my neighbor as much as his animals. Again, the question of "What can I do to make a difference?" comes in to mind. On Friday my neighbor came home after a night spent away, to find a mess that was made by his dogs. It just so happened that I was walking my dog at the time so I was able to see that he needed something to help clean up the mess. It also just so happened that I had something that would do the job. Since I have always felt getting to know my neighbors to be a positive thing this also helped open the door even more to a budding friendship. Yesterday and even some today, his cats kept getting out so I ended up kitten sitting while he was at work.
His girlfriend came to his apartment yesterday and I gave her the kittens back but once again, they showed back up at my door while they where away. When the girlfriend and the neighbor got home the second time I gave the cats back once again but I am starting to wonder how his girlfriend feels about me talking to him on a friendship basis. I know my limits and am no longer that little girl that does stupid things but does the girlfriend know that? I don't know about her past, and really am not trying to get to know her past. I would be willing to get to know her now so she does not make assumptions. I know from past experience that I would have a problem with my boyfriend talking to a female neighbor but than again, that is why I am single and working on my self esteem and me.. One thing I have learned is if jealousness enters into a relationship, then things become very rocky
I did realize this week that I have finally started to move on from my ex in New York. Not enough to be in another relationship but enough to perhaps hang out with someone as a friend, perhaps even go to a movie with them. The one thing that I will not tolerate though is a guy trying to get my attention on the down low. If they are trying to be secretive with me than they are not trying to be my friend and not worth my time of day. Especially when it does not make a difference in my life. I plan on staying focused, centered, and working on myself with the thought, What can I do to make a difference today?
