For the Work Others Do...

I am so thankful for the work others do to make people's lives easier.

My dear fiance spent his entire lunchbreak (and then some!) running around getting paperwork filled out for us to get the rental that we want. He had to hit the store, get cashier's checks/money orders and just get a million different things lined up perfectly to make it happen. He is still working on this today.
I am so grateful that he works near enough to where we live that he can do all of this. I am also grateful that his office is lenient enough to let him take a long lunch to take of personal things. Most of all, I am thankful that he works this hard for us -- both at his job and outside the office.

I am also very fortunate to have someone within my office who is just an angel.
Our manager's last day was 2 weeks ago; she moved to another contract. In the interim, one of the other ladies in our office stepped up to oversee our team -- a position that we would love for her to hold permanently. She is smart, funny, and really just super sweet. She knows the job, she knows us, and she really knows how to interact with people in a way that gets the job done, but people still want to bend over backwards to help her.
She keeps apologizing to us since she is still in a "learning period" but I keep telling her she is doing great and to let us know if she needs any help with anything. Our last manager really got burned out from doing everything herself, and I really don't want that to happen to this woman.

Overall, I am just so grateful to have people in my life who are willing to work hard to make my life easier. At a time when life is really stressful, it is so very much appreciated.
