2024 Happy Blog Challenge Continues

Today's happy things are mostly about work: It feels like it has been a good work week so far.  I've been working with hazardous waste items this week and learning things.  I like to learn things, even when it is about something that is super dangerous.  And then learning how I'm supposed to take care of it.  Certain job tasks have started to require hard hats.  I've been avoiding them until today.  I got a hard hat and figured out a way to use it with all my hair.  I'm very thankful to the safety person who helped and found me a thing that will hold my hair back with the hard hat on. For no reason that I know of, the Learning Trainer allowed me and one other Learning Ambassador to choose something from the swag closet.  I got a backpack stool.  Things can be packed into it to be worn on the back.  It has a frame to be able to sit on it. I'm choosing to sleep over Inktober today.  I'm supposed to be getting trained on some things to...

Happy October!  Here are a few happy things: Work was understaffed last night.  I worked an extra two hours.  My feet are sore and I have just over 30,000 steps on my Fitbit.  That said, I'm glad I was able to stay late and help out.  Gideon tried out for a play at school today.  I'm happy that he has found something he likes to do that is an extracurricular activity. For Inktober today the prompt is Backpack .  I happened to have one to look at as a model.  My drawings seem identifiable to me.  That makes it a great start.  I should mention that I think Inktober was started for people to practice art who might want to become a tattoo artist.   At least that is what I remember from previous years.  I have no desire to become a tattoo artist. First in pencil. Then pen with some background. ☮ Currently listening to: The Silmarillion , by J. R. R. Tolkien.  Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.
