Today...

This week has been a trial; many things have been going wrong. I guess it's better that a whole bunch of bad happens at once and is done with than having it strung out over a long period of time.? I'm not sure about that, but I'm trying to get back on the positive end of the spectrum.

This morning, after my soda bottle exploded all over my white shirt (thankfully I did have an overshirt to button up) one of my co-workers relayed a tale that was scary/funny/sad.

Long story short, a homeless person decided to sleep in the bed of her truck underneath the carport at her apartment complex. When she started up her truck this morning, the guy jumped up and disappeared!

She said this is the second time that this has happened to her. I reminded her that I warned her not to renew her lease and to find a place closer to work.

So, with credit and thanks to Michelle for her life lessons which have caused me to reflect daily on my circumstances, today I am thankful for:

1) My precious baby girl whose smile and laughter are contagious.
2) That today is Friday/payday and I can pay a few more bills this week.
3) That my oldest son has found activities to motivate and help him focus better towards school and life in general.
4) That between the two of us my husband and I have gotten all three of our cars "legal" (registered and current tags) this week so I don't have to fret over neighborhood patrol or other law enforcement.
5) That we have been having beautiful early fall weather the last few days.
I am currently Good
