The Ups and Downs

Life is full of ups and downs. Sometimes these are found over a period of time such as months, and other times the ups and downs fluctuate within a period of hours or minutes. Today was a perfect example of the latter. I worked until 4 today. And no offense to any Chick-Fil-A people who are reading this. But it was kind of a tough day at work. I got a promotion, and today was the first official day as team leader. And so I am trying to learn all my new responsibilities. And I think there are some people who are not willing to wait while I learn. But anyways. My mom came in to eat around 3:30. She asked how I was doing and I pretty much summed up the day by saying I was hot, tired, and frustrated. All that would soon change though.

The next person that came to my register was my best friend who lives in Germany. I have not seen this girl in 5 years. Needless to say I was excited. After I finally got over the shock, I wanted to shout. But since I was working the front line that was kind of out of the question since we are supposed to keep our composure at all times. So Karis I am so sorry I did not seem as surprised as I was inside. I am so glad you are here!

I could not wait until 4:00 to come! I had known she was coming but she was not supposed to come until the 3rd or so I thought. She flew over early and her family will be her the 3rd. She came to see me graduate!!!! This means more to me than I can say. So tomorrow we are going to go to IKEA and Washington DC. Not really sure what we are going to do there, but whatever it is it will be fun. And then we leave for Pennsylvania to get ready for graduation. So yeah, the day sure had a turn around. And it was definitely for the better!!!!
