Haha not quite but close.
Oh oh I work in fiber optics! And YES bored is the best way to describe us. Lol. It's freaking cold. Lol, we take breaks to work out, cause sitting for 12 hours is like slowly dying lol.
Our company goes into IT rooms quite often to bring in fiber optics. The folk working in those rooms look bored half the time. It is nice going in the server rooms during summer

Haha you got the numbers mixed up! xD
Haha, I used to. But I never pulled my hair. Poor hair. I spend hours to fix it only to ruin it because of someone else's computer problem! Haha, but no. Heck no. Oh I work in the monitoring department, so we basically just do remote check when our equipments go down and when they do, we ask someone else to go fix it. xD That's it gets boring sometimes. I used to be a bad employee and I'd bring my laptop to work and played video games xD But I'm a changed person now. lol.

Actually managed to sleep last night, for the first time in a month. Seemed strange to have no kitty on the bed with me, nor meowing for food this morning. I will be getting rid of her potty box this morning, and wash her food dishes and put them away.. My friend Mary has a friend whose cat is going to be having kittens soon. Both parents are orange, so the babies will be orange too. I've asked God to "custom make" me a kitten, and told him what I want it to look like: golden eyes, white under the chin and tip of tail, with bright orange and dark orange swirls and stripes, with a character like Tequila's.. Ugh here I go, bawling again and talking out loud to her picture like a fool. Whatever works to get me through this, right? I'm already crazy, might as well talk out loud to her picture and prove it..lol
I feel an immense sense of relief that she is no longer suffering. She had this disease for several years before it finally got so bad. I could have kept her going on meds and steroid injections, but I know how that feels, I've done it with my own meds and steroid injections to feel better. However, that would have been selfish of me to make her suffer further, just so I could keep her around. I doubt she would have even made it through the rest of this year, because I had already taken her off her meds, and her symptoms were returning. So as always with God, now was her time to go, and she knew it. She knew she was sick and wouldnt get better. She knew yesterday when the vet tech was here, that something was gonna happen. She sniffed his hand and rubbed against it, then we got her settled and he gave the first shot to relax her. She hissed at him because the shot stung (I KNEW she'd hiss lol) but after a couple minutes she relaxed and went to dream land. Then he gave the second shot, which only took a couple minutes to work.
Her beautiful golden eyes were open, staring at me after she was gone. She looked so peaceful laying there, she looked like she was asleep. She even had a "smile" on her face, which I took pictures of. I think she smiled because she saw Jesus coming for her. I told her he would. On my way home, I saw two clouds, one in the shape of a cross, and the other in the shape of an angel HOLDING A CAT. It gives me great comfort knowing she has a new body now, and that she's with Jesus in his kingdom.
Tequila, my beautiful girl, you were such a good friend. Such wonderful company. You were God's angel in orange fur, on loan to me for 15 years, and now he needed you back. You were truly my biggest blessing. Thank you so much for being part of my life for so long, and thank you Lord, for sending me this precious little furry angel. I know you'll take good care of her now that she's back with you.

It is arduous work to keep the master ambition in front. It means holding one's self to the high ideal year in and year out, not being ambitious to win souls or to establish churches or to have revivals, but being ambitious only to be "accepted of Him."
Once a week at least take stock before God and see whether you are keeping your life up to the standard He wishes.
I have to learn to relate everything to the master ambition, and to maintain it without any cessation. My worth to God in public is what I am in private. Is my master ambition to please Him and be acceptable to Him, or is it something less, no matter how noble?

It is hard to keep my focus on Jesus when I look to people to show the love of Christ. Somehow that looks like a contradictory statement, but I don't think it is. How can we love if we do not know what love is? How can we accept it if we do not recognize it? How can we say we do not know what it is when we feel love for others? We could not say that if we did not know what it is. How can we trust when we have been so deceived by people concerning love in the past, and even deceived by our own selves? Jesus is the standard. He is the way. He has set the bar pretty high. How low are we in comparison? He loves us still. He went to the cross to bear our sins, our faults, our misunderstandings on what is required of us, and our lack of love for one another. I see love and it fills my vision, drawing me forward, encouraging me to break free of my fear of love destroying me. I experience love and it captures me. I feel love and it breaks my heart. I want to share love, and I fail. Then I understand love as an ideal towards which I move. It is only the love of God that offers me rest. All else is movement toward, or away from, love, a distorted reflection of the love God has for us.
