said hard work doesn't pay off?
In the words of Kiari: Frrrrickin' A.
This last week has been awesome, hard, lovely, exhausting, weird, CRAZY. I have been so far behind since I moved to Seattle. It has been a constant high speed run trying to grasp my goals, dreams and standards. It has not been easy by any means but I'm now a little more than half way(GASSSSP, sigh of relief)!!
I started working a part time job at a moving company so I could catch up and make some extra cash. As far as skills go the work is a cake walk because I did it every summer through high school and then some. However, there were a few things I forgot about...such as:
-You never know what kind of customer your going to get or what your going to have to pack up...the other day I picked up this jewelry box looking thing and said to the lady "Whats in here?" She replied "Oh, that's my husband." AHHHHH, then I packed some pics of him too and I felt like he was going to jump out of the box and wanna tango with me or something.
-You work on a dirty truck where your co-workers throw swear words around so much you start to daydream that your on a sail boat in the navy in the year 1942.
-When your done for the day your so tired that you feel like you ran a marathon.
-You work a 12 hour day just to go home and get out of bed like a sore zombie at 5am to do it all over again.
-Your fingers start looking all cut up like a crazy beast from outer space.
My room is almost finished being painted the most amazing spirit lifting tangerine, lavender and bright raspberry a woman could dream. It truly makes my heart SING! Now, I will be able to feel happy when I'm in my room this will motivate me to stay in and be a worker bee. I just want to stay home and make clothes and take photos. I don't want to have to pack up burnt dead people again.
My advice for the day, week, MONTH: If you find something that's "Good enough for now." Don't keep it around for long, work on the things that are "Good enough FOREVER."
