The Holidays at Disney

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!

I'm finally laying down after more than ten hours at work, and I'm exhausted. At the same time, though, I'm really happy with how today went.
I got to work in an area that I hadn't gotten much experience in last week, so it was great to learn more about this part of my job. Unfortunately, there was a lot of heavy lifting involved, but I figure if I keep this up, maybe I'll eventually build up my non-existent upper body strength!

The other downside to today's work was that I was kind of separated from the rest of my team. I had been looking forward to getting to know everyone more, and I didn't really have the opportunity to talk to any of them today. We spoke in passing as we were doing different things, but I'm anxious to be working side by side with all of them again. It seems like I'm working with really nice people so far, and the majority of the people I've spoken with appear to have a good sense of humor as well. I think that the more I get to talk with them all, the more I'll enjoy their company.

There also wasn't a lot of Guest interaction for me today, which I definitely missed as well. But the few times that I did have the opportunity to speak with Guests was great. Everyone seems to be in the holiday spirit, which makes a long and difficult shift a little easier to get through. I don't think there's a better place to spend the holiday season than in Disney World, and I'm sure that most of the Guests that are there this week would agree. Of course, I'd love to be visiting the Parks instead of working in one location every day, but at least I'm there... I'll be able to say that I spent Christmas Eve in Disney World. That's amazing!

Tomorrow I'm working the longest shift I've ever worked: 12 hours! That doesn't even include driving time, or the time it takes for me to get from the parking lot by bus to my location. It's going to be crazy! Part of me is really excited, and then part of me is scared to death. I just hope that my feet make it through the day... I may end up crawling back to my car after leaving work.

Thank you so much for your continued support! I look forward to sharing more stories about my experience with foster care, and hopefully hearing from readers who have questions or similar stories to share. I'm always willing to answer questions and hear about other experiences! Please don't forget to like and share my Facebook author page as well!

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

Thanks!
Taylor

Taylor,

As I write this, you must be part way through your day, and I'm hoping you are having a great day. Blessing your visitors and coworkers at your job is truly a calling and your spirit seems to thrive on doing just that.

I wanted to mention that your dedication to your blog is outstanding and hope that someday you will find the time to work on your novel.

I was just talking to my mother-in-law the other day and we realized that between our families we have seven separate relatives that live in Florida all in a horizontal band from Clearwater over to Port St. Lucie and upwards to Orlando area. We are all from the north so it was a little surprising to realize I know so many folks in Florida!

Have a great time with your family and friends!

Hi Pam! The magic and cheer we are able to spread at my job definitely makes up for the long hours on your feet. Thank you so much for your support in my endeavors... Sometimes I find it difficult to fit in time for a blog post each day, but I push myself to keep the commitment I made to myself when I started this blog. Now if only I could find that kind of dedication when it comes to exercise!!

    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
