Comfort is an Absolute Must at Work

My sweet, wonderful, co-worker friend; Flower, got me this super cute blanket hoodie. Yes, those are Corgis and rainbows (I KNOW SUPER DUPER CUTE). Flower is so amazing… she sent me this thoughtful gift just because (and I love her for it)!! Friends like her… those ones are keepers, let me tell you!

Thanks to Flower, I get to be comfortable and feel at ease while I work in the office. I think it’s important, if you can, to be super cozy at work. You’ll still stay motivated but relaxed enough not to get stressed out. And that’s what we desire, right? To not feel overwhelmed and wanting to pull our hair out while we call clients and schedule appointments. Well, at least for me, that’s the case!

I’m sure it’s even better for those of you who work from home! You can make endless trips to the Keurig machine for your coffee while you sit through meetings and type away on your Mac. You can throw on a blanket hoodie like me (thankfully no one really visits in person at the office) and why not grab slippers while you’re at it! Sounds WONDERFUL, doesn’t it?

A few other ways to stay comfy while working (if you can)

1) Play background music (peaceful, soothing tunes)

2) Sit somewhere like a couch or cozy chair that won’t hurt your back

3) Have snacks while you work (a few goodies by your side in case you get hungry)

4) Put up encouraging signs or artwork to give you inner peace and make you feel proud of yourself as you finish all your work tasks

5) Use your lunch break as a nap break!

6) Take deep breathes and quick time outs for the bathroom when you feel the stress coming back

7) Drink all the coffee you can get your hands on (coffee and work go together)

8) If you have pets… cuddle and pet them while you work (they are your emotional support animals … after all)

Remember, being all snug at work is essential! Especially for your mental health. 🙂

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk!

A Lil Life Update: April 2023

I’ve been so busy! Working full-time is no joke. I started a new job a month ago and it’s been non-stop since then. It’s funny… finally getting that full-time job after years of praying and it still feels unreal.

The other day, I paid off my dentist bill and it felt amazing! I paid off a huge bill that I’d been trying to pay off for a year. And now, it’s all paid off. Before I know it, I’ll be getting a car and doing other adult things. I’ve waited for this moment and it’s here. It’s actually here. I’m so incredibly blessed, incredibly in awe of how good God is. I waited. I prayed. It took time, but I’m doing so well now. This is a wonderful stage of life I’m in.

Don’t get me wrong, working full-time can also be a struggle. I mean, I work 7-4 pm five days a week and have a 40 minute commute. It’s my first office job. (I mainly schedule estimates, helping to sell security screens to different clients out in AZ, LV, & NM). It’s a new experience. And, you have to be extremely good at multi-tasking and not let the stress get to you. It’s my first time really, truly adulting, and it can be overwhelming and tiring, but it really is quite the experience! I’m grateful God has blessed me so much with a new job and to finally feel financially stable. It’s such a good feeling!

I love how I’m growing and finding more of myself each and every day. And I’m exciting to see what else God has in store for me as each month passes. 🙂 2023 = the year Chea accomplishes so many things!
