My smiles for today...

Today was kind of a blah day for me at work. It is Monday and I am already looking forward to Friday when I don't have to work. This really concerns me that I am not enjoying my job right now. I even looked online tonight for what recreation therapy jobs are listed in St. Louis right now. Some days I don't like my job because of the staff, but today it was the residents that I let get to me. It can be so frusterating when you put time into something for them and then they just complain about it. And its just those few that love to be vocal about it and stand out, while everyone else is enjoying themselves. It's so easy to let those few negative voices drown out enjoyment.
Does God get sick of us when we are complaining about life? I mean He has this wonderful creation and most of the time we don't even enjoy it. Tomorrow is a new day and I hope I am better at praising God tomorrow than I was today. Thinking of tomorrow makes me smile.
Nathan and I went to Castlewood State Park for the first time this evening. We had a good time hiking trails on bluffs that looked over the Meramec River. God's creation is wonderful it makes me smile. We didn't take the camera this time, but now that we know what there is to see we will have to take pictures next time we go. I doubt we will get to see a racoon climbing up a tree next time. This hour hike was great for a stressful day especially with the one I love.
Nathan started his new job today, it went well and he seems very happy about working again.
Well, I'm off to bed to get some sleep, I love sleep.
