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 – 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.
How Am I Feeling?
I turned 56 today and I am feeling OK. Not bad for turning another year older. Not sure if I am feeling smarter or wiser at the moment. Let’s see how things go. I am hopefully going to be feeling the best I can at any given time.
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.
Daily Prompt – Was Today Typical
Today was a typical day of getting up, preparing lunch, eating breakfast and going to work then coming home. All these things are personally typical, but life is typically chaotic in a broader, global sense. Some things you can control like yourself, while other stuff, not so much. You do the best you can to make the world a better place. Hopefully good works will always be a typical part of the day. I would like typical and routine over the alternative, I don’t mind boring.
