Hard work is a daily grind. My work is not physically demanding like many others, but it’s mentally grueling. I have a daily quota that is sometimes hard to reach for various reasons. When I reach that quota, it feels great because I have had to work really hard to get there. So yeah, I do feel fulfilled, but it can be frustrating and sometimes discouraging to get to where I need to be daily. Fulfillment can also come from other sources when work isn’t there for you.

Daily Prompt – Battle
I hate to say it, there is a serious battle for the heart and soul in America. There are battles being fought in other places around the world too. These battles are ugly, and the stakes are high. There are two sides, maybe more in a battle, and sometimes the battles turn into a war. Sometimes there are no winners in a war, just a lot of broken bodies and scarred souls. Goodness gracious, what is all this good for? What can we do to have peace, to end the battle to restore sanity?
Daily Prompt – How Do I Relax?
I answered this daily prompt in August of last year. I am revisiting it to say the things that cause me not to relax are still present. I do what I can to relax, but it’s hard for me. Being able to relax is important, and it’s taking me awhile to figure out to do more of it. But when I do relax I like to blog, watch TV, listen to podcasts, and cook breakfast on a Saturday morning. I do enjoy working on computer stuff too.
Visit my post from last year to see how I answered this question.
My Favorite Recipe
This recipe is a family favorite from a friend of the family. I absolutely love this dish because it’s beef and sauce and full of good memories. It’s good with rice and steamed broccoli. Each year I ask for it on my birthday. Check out the Soup Diva’s site to check out the recipe.
Daily Prompt – Favorite Time Of Day
My favorite time of day is 4:30 Monday-Friday. Yes, that is when my workday ends. I am grateful for having a job. But, I will tell you, my job is mentally taxing and that impacts a lot of stuff. At the end of the day, I am tired. Once again, my job helps a lot of people, but I am only human, and I have my own limits.
