A Bad Day

Okay, so they can't all be great, right? I just had a challenging day. Nothing serious, but nothing was working out, going my way today. I was frustrated, called my mom & dad for support, and Dad took the time to point out all my grammatical errors. Um, thanks Dad! lol. In his defense, there are a lot of them, and I would correct them, but this stinky little mini is so overly sensitive that I'm afraid it will delete everything. I promise that's not an excuse, just an explanation. And Dad, deal with it. :0)

So, other than that, the day wasn't a complete loss. I took Ches out for a walk and introduced her to the landlords horses. She was excited and nervous, and once we were up at the fence she turned her head and wouldn't face the horse. The young horse was VERY excited and interested in Ches, but nothing doing.

Today was snowy and cold. It's about to grow much colder. MUCH COLDER. We're supposed to hit -40 by the weekend, and I'm thinking our Fairbanks trip may not happen and I think I'm going to start doing some serious online shopping. There could be worse things. lol.

I'm hoping that tomorrow will be a better day. I'm sure it will. I certainly can't have two crappy days in a row. Can I?

Happy days to all!

I think I'll bury my head in a snow bank


By normal standards, today stunk. Truly, honestly just stunk. But "this too shall pass". So we charge forward. Ready to tackle whatever is thrown at us next. For about 30 minutes today I had a strong urge to just stick my head in the snow bank like this guy. I think he might have had the right idea. Put it in and wait for whatever comes next. The backside is the side those wishing to harm you are looking for anyway.
Let me be clear. No "one" hurt me. But sometimes I think God has a lot of fun seeing what obstacles he can put in our way. Watching us jump, sprawl, crawl or just sit down and bawl. Today, I almost sat down and bawled, but I didn't. I'm fortunate, I have a very snarky hubby. He called me to tell me that he forgot about a little money he had put away. He informed me that it's 62 million and it's sitting safely in his wallet. I could use a little windfall, and I certainly don't need 62 mil. I wouldn't turn it down though.
Brent lost his wedding ring somewhere in the hoopla. Seeing that he has no time to buy boots, that also means he has no time to buy a new ring. That lucky bastard is single again. Why didn't I think of that? Sheesh.
In all seriousness things will go. I'm sure we'll have a few more challenges along the way, but I'm expecting them to all be minor now. Goodness, let's hope so.
Only 2 days to go until Christmas. I scheduled myself a wonderful gift. A full hour massage. Why not? Life's short.
Tomorrow is a new day, and incidentally it begins in 14 minutes. It will be better.
Later.
