It’s a bit
of a whining day, Folks.
I’m not
settling in to going back
to work very well.
I feel like
I can’t catch my breath and as if I’m even more unprepared and harried than I’ve
been.
We were
late for Beauty’s soccer game today, thinking we had to leave the house at
noon, for a match that began at noon.
Seventy-five
minutes from home.
Fortunately
I noticed our mistake shortly after eleven-thirty, so we at least made it to
see that last half.
A headache
is claiming my brain tonight.
You know, there
are some weeks when we feel as if we’re spinning our wheels or as if nothing
seems to be going right.
During
those times, it’s hard to recognize the Happy, but there’s always something,
Journeyers.
We just
have to recognize them.
One of this
week’s moments came as I drove to work at that unbelievably nasty hour of six-twenty
in the morning.
There was
ICE on my windshield, Journeyers, a heavy frost that didn’t brush away with the
wipers.
The digital display in my car said thirty-four
degrees!
But as I
begged for the heat to get cranking, look at the amazing shades of a red
sunrise I saw ahead of me.
Yesterday,
Warren pulled a bottle of soda from the case.
“Hey,
Honey,” he said a little while later, “any idea why this cap would be red?”
“Check the
case to see if it says anything,” I said, and after he hollered there was no
mention, I told him to Google it.
“Hey, maybe it’s a free trip to someplace like
Aruba.”
The thought
alone was joyful, Journeyers, and for a silly, dreamy few minutes I danced
around the kitchen.
“We might
be going to Aaaar-uuubaaaa,” I sang.
The only
reference Warren could find was to a 2009 contest.
I’m still
holding out hope, though!
Do you know
anything about a current contest? If so, let me know!
Just
writing about it is bringing another smile to my face, Friends.
Sometimes,
we have to focus a little harder to see the Happy…
What about
you? What Moment(s) brought a little pleasure to your week?
