Gratitude (Day 23)

Day 23-

My first job (where I actually earned money) was my most favorite job I've ever had. I worked at a video store as a cashier. It was fun and easy. It didn't really require a whole lot of effort.

But today I'm thankful for my least favorite job that I've ever had. Which was as an apartment manager. I was actually crazy enough to do it twice. There were a lot of things I really enjoyed about the job but I'm a get it done and be done kind of girl and an apartment managers job is never done.

But I'm grateful for it because it taught me a great deal about being a handywoman (my spell checker says that's not a word but handyman is a word. Something's wrong with that).

Anyways, my handiness came into play yesterday. Since we've moved in we've had a toilet that runs and runs. Wes was going to replace the flapper and other things in the tank but then he just cleaned it and said he felt it was running less. Which it did seem to help for about a day...

So I finally took a look. A little adjustment and a couple of prideful comments to my husband and the toilet works like new. :)

Man it's great being a capable woman. :)
