A Bad Day

Today was a bad day. I'm right around the corner from work and I get a ticket. The cop was at least kind enough not to make it a moving violation, but it went all down hill from there. My intention was to go to Dunkin Donuts to get a muffin to go with my usual morning Green Tea. Needless to say I was so upset after the ticket I didn't make it to get the muffin nor did I have my Green Tea. Now if you know me you know I am the life of the party. I don't think I said one word to anybody the entire morning. I stayed in my cube and completed the work I needed to complete for the day. Now the result of me not eating breakfast was that my stomach hurt and I developed a horrible headache.

So needless to say the ride home was not the best. My head still pounded. I guess lunch wasn't good enough and I was tired. So I really just wanted to come home and go to sleep. However about a mile out I remembered I have a little baby girl home awaiting me so she can get her dose of Daddy time. So I mustered up enough energy to make it up the stairs and there she was relaxing in her mother's arms. So I put my bag down and washed my hands, (you all know the drill by now) grabbed her up and gave her her evening kiss to match the one I give her every morning. I talked with her to see how her day went and held her close until bath time.

I have to mention she made a call to her big cousin Breezie today. She was trying to say something but of course no words came out. Breezie spoke to her though, lol. I am thinking about the trouble those two will get into soon enough.

What I learned today is how much your family can change the outlook of a day. Mine started out horrible but as soon as I came home to embrace my two ladies, especially this little one, I felt loved and felt a sense of calm come completely over me.

That is all for today. As always, remember to pray because prayer changes things.
