BtoB I'll Be Your Man

This is about six years ago, but BtoB is amazing.  

The vocals and the rapping for this song is top notch!  I love hearing this song, it shows off the vocals of the entire group,\.

ATEEZ(에이티즈) BY. HONGJOONG #5 – Numb (Original. Linkin Park)

I found this song a year or so ago.  I am a fan of Linkin Park, and thought that this cover would be the same as all cover songs, except from a Korean singer.

The song blew me away and I immediately went on YouTube to find out what other things Hong Joong has done...turns out that he is a rapper for the Korean band Ateez and they are amazing!

Meet Stray Kids!!

I have been listening to K-pop for a few years now, I love the difference in the sounds and the choreography of these groups from Korea.

However, one group blows me away every time I hear them.  They are Stray Kids, and their sound and rap abilities are amazing!!

Beware, these guys will blow you away!!

Loving The New Job and Doctor's Appointments Are Good

I have been at my new  job for three days, and off today for my doctor's appointment.

I love my new job!  It is so easy, and I am never busy. I get to sit around and read or knit for most of the day.

My new boss is awesome.  He lets me do whatever I want, and already has confidence in me, enough to leave me alone in the store for hours on end without worry.  He has complete confidence in me.

I don't think things could get any better for me there.  The pay is great for what I am doing too.  

This place reminds me of my first job in this type of work.  I loved that first job, and I love this place too.  I am not tired or overworked at the end of the day. Unlike my last job, I don't feel like someone knocked me over with a dump truck.

I look forward to going to work now, and that is a good thing.

I met a guy yesterday at the bus stop that can see auras.  He said mine was a bright blue one, which means healing.  We chatted for a little while, and it was cool.  He did apologize for just talking to me out of the blue, but he loved meeting people and because of my aura, he thought I would be a good person to talk to.  I didn't mind, usually people at the bus stop look at you like you are very strange or are wrapped up in their phones.  I didn't mind, really.  I thought it was cool. 

Yule is coming very soon, and I am preparing to celebrate it with a lot of love and affection.  I am looking forward to it.

My doctor's appointment went very well too.  Everything looks good, except for the pain that I have in the back of my head. It isn't cancer, so the doctor suggested that I take ibuprofen three times a day and go from there.  If the pain persists, I will go to my family doctor.

I can't wait until the tests and doctor's appointments are done and over with.  I am still being monitored for a year or so more to make sure that the cancer stays gone, but I am ready to get to the finish line on this one so that I can get on with life.

This year is almost over with, and I am feeling really good about how things are going.

More later....

Happy Thanksgiving

 

Going Back To Work, Round Two

Working for my former company didn't work out.  They expected me to do the things that I had done before I got sick. 

My body said: "Nope, not this time around, not going to happen!"

I am not worried though, I applied at another company that I didn't realize was off the beaten path of the bus line, but a bit of a walk.  I didn't think that I would get it anyway, and if they called, I would tell them that I had made a mistake.

They called, and really wanted me to work for them. My experience was something that they didn't want to pass up, and they worked out a way to get me to and from the bus stop just so that I could work for them...that blew me away!

They also told me that the job was really simple, that I would have a lot of down time and I could read my Kindle or knit if I want to.  They were even sympathetic about the cancer and about the things that I will need to do to get through this next year...they are willing to work with me on these things and are going to do what they can to make sure that I can work.

Granted, there isn't  much that needs to be accommodated for with my cancer, just doctors visits, so this is really nice.

It feels good to know that someone wants me to work for them that bad that they are willing to help me so much.  I felt appreciated even before I could start working for them.  These people are really kind and caring.  

I start work on Monday and I am excited.  It won't take to long for me to get the hang of things and I will enjoy working there.  This time, I will be working with customers and processing garments.  The only thing that I will need to learn is their computer system. 

I am ready to go back to work and be in an environment where I won't have to be stressed out by everyone for no reason at all.   I hope that this job helps me to do the things that I need to do in life rather than rely on disability.  I want to rely on myself in the future.

I am so excited to get back to work!!
