Confessions--One of Those Days
I am a whiny cry baby. I don't like it when things go wrong. I try to keep a positive attitude, but that is not easy when nothing goes your way and everything goes bad! My morning was filled with drama. I had to fight with Verizon(FIOS) about my bill. I had to deal my electric bill. I hit my head while I was unloading my groceries. It was not a good day. Then...
A power failure that went from Tijuana to southern Orange County and even parts of Arizona left me feeling grateful that I had power and realizing my day wasn't so bad after all. Some are still without power. It's been over 100. Some places as high as 117.
I was en route to some where...who knows where...I am always on the go. Aren't we all??? It was in the peak of the heat of the day. I saw a van pulled over. Hazards on. Oh dear. No she wasn't in trouble that way. She had a sick kid. She was busy cleaning up her van and he was busy being sick. Not a good moment for her either. We all have crappy moments.
I confess...
I have hearing issues. They are minor; age appropriate. I had to go to a Parents meeting for choir. Very informative. I sat on the front row to make sure I would hear things. It wouldn't have been a problem. The teacher spoke clear and his voice carried well. Problem: the gal sitting next to me kept asking ME questions like I was the go to gal. I could only hear about 15% of what she was saying. She had a mousy voice. No matter how much I strained. I simply couldn't hear her. I am too polite to say: Can't hear you, lady. And even more...I could have said, "Ask him!"
I confess...
I am a whiny cry baby and when things don't go my way I am not a happy camper. At all.
What about you? What do you do when things go wrong?
I am participating in Mamarazzi's Friday Confessions!

And you are entitled to whine after the day you had yesterday.
Sick kids in vans are not fun. At. All. Trying to hear a presentation while someone is talking to you is almost as bad as a sick kid in a car!
