"I can be so negative sometimes..."

Today was a low point.

I recently got hired at the new In N Out that will be opening in August. I have been super thankful and appreciative of the kindness of my new manager.

My biggest concern is the uniforms. I fear that I might be too big for the uniforms that they provide. My manager said that we would figure it out. I went to the existing store to check out the sizes of their things. The biggest pant size they have is a 40 for males. Yeah, I have been losing weight but I am NO WHERE near that size. So they let me take home a pair with me so that I can go to other stores and see if I can find some in my size. Mom and I went to this store called Work World and the only white pants they had were Dickies and the biggest size they carried was a 46 waist.

We got into the car and I was already in tears. As soon as we got home, I ran upstairs to the computer and was trying to find white work pants that will fit me. The more I looked, the more I got discouraged. As I was googling white work pants, I sat here with tears dripping down my face. I had posted on facebook my concern about trying to find white pants. I had multiple people helping me to look. When i finally gave up and went to go eat, Crysta texted me to go look at the Dickies website again. So after dinner I got back on the computer and went straight to the Dickies webpage. I clicked on mens and they had a big and tall section. In there I found white pants that should fit me!!! I will have to hem them but they should work.

Mom said to wait till tomorrow to try a couple uniform places around here and then get a hold of my manager and ask if I should get them, or if I should have the company buy them, or if I should get them and get reimbursed.

I am just thankful I found something that will fit. Now All i have to worry about is the shirt! Things will work out. God has been helping me this far.

I just have to make sure that I keep losing so that I can change pant sizes :-)

Song that I dedicated to those who have helped me today:

"I can be so negative sometimes
My own worst enemy sometimes
Even at my lowest low, you still had hope,
When I wanna quit, you won't let me
When I'm falling down, you gon'catch me,
You pick me up, yeah, you fix me up
Now I'm on my way and I'm strong enough to say
You gave me wings, and thaught me to fly
When I was out there on my own,
You gave me wings and brought me to life"

Shiver

Again I wait forever to write again. It is something I truly do love to do, when I get around to it. It is not something that I do enough.

I have been reading this book called Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater.

This book is about werewolves, but there is a twist. They aren't monsters. They just turn into real wolves. They only turn when the weather begins to get cold. After a while, the time they spend as human gets less and less and the time they are a wolf is more. Sam has been trying to hold on to his humanity and the way he has been doing that is he has fallen in love this this girl, Grace who was attacked and bitten when she was younger. She is the only person who has been bitten but hasn't changed.

Reading about the way they are with one another and the love that they show for one another bring back both memories and longing. It brings back memories of the way Bryan and I were. I mean we weren't always that touchy-feely, but when we were, it was so nice.

The longing I get is when I start to wish for someone who loved me so much that they wanted to be contact with me. Like if we were to go shopping, they want to hold my hand or put their arm around me. Almost in a "She's mine" kind of way.

Basically I want to feel wanted. I want to feel special to someone. I want to make someone feel special. I want to be able to be that kind "queen" to my "king". I want someone to protect and to hold. Someone I can love and spend time with. Someone that I can talk to about anything and everything and they will listen and tell me all their thoughts and secrets too.

I know God has someone out there. I guess I am just being impatient because we humans are social creatures. We like companionship.

I just feel like my companion-ship has sailed.

Haha cheesy, yeah, but I am tired and want to write something to get my thoughts down.

Until next time,
Rina

Someone Special :-)

I have never met someone like you who makes me forget all of the bad things and the hectic happenings of life. I am so completely absorbed in just being with you and enjoying my time with you and the laughter with you that when we have to say goodbye, even knowing that I will see you again soon, leaves me feeling empty and lost and confused and wanting more time with you. Even though the goodbyes make me sad, I look forward to the hellos very much
