Bad day...

We all have bad days. Sometimes it is limited to our hair or clothing or maybe you didn't have enough hot water to finish your shower. Things happen and life goes on. But doesn't it seem like if one thing goes wrong the rest of the day just turns out to be bad, hence the phrase "bad day" not bad incident. I am having a bad day.

Last night I had a softball game, as I usually do on Tuesday evenings. We won, and I played alright, so overall it was a good experience. However, I was quite tired after the game. I must admit I have not been sleeping much lately... a new boyfriend will do that to a girl. So last night I didn't go out for $1 beer, I didn't go bowling with my friends, and I didn't even go see my boyfriend... instead I took a tylenol pm at about 10:30 and was crashed out by 11. My goal, get some rest so I can have a constructive and wonderful day. But my day has not worked out as I so thoughtfully planned.

My routine... alarm goes off at 6:30... in the shower by 6:45... eat some toast... check my email... turn on my itunes... get ready for work... out the door by 7:50... work by 8... I however was not so lucky today...

First of all I was leaving the house at 8 instead of pulling into work by 8... I just couldn't get motivated. I pull out of the drive, make it a couple of blocks, and then realize I have a flat. Drive back to my house... change into some sweats... and proceed to put the spare tire on.

I would have been successful at this task... I have changed a tire before, I am not afraid of it... however the lugnuts were on so tight I could not even budge them... so my step dad to the rescue... We get the spare on, just to find out it is flat as well... very slowly we make our way to T&C to air up the tire... made it safely there and then to discount tire...

Ouch!!! Tires are expensive, and I wasn't planning on a expense like that... but I needed tires badly (this flat couldn't be fixed)... From discount tire I proceed back to my house, change back into my work clothes, and head to work. I missed the entire morning.

"Momma says we all have days like this... days like this my Momma says..." Yes we do all have days like this, but I am not going to let it get me down. I will "Keep on keepin on". I have a feeling my day will be getting better, for tonight I hope to see my new boyfriend.
