Debbie Downer...

So I try to maintain a somewhat positive, at times sickening, outlook on life.

Today's the day.

Perhaps it is because it is the opposite day of my birthday, 7/11. It's 11/7. Next year, I'll stay in bed.

It has been a terrible, awful, horrible, no-good, very BAD DAY!

So bad that I can't even really go into much detail. It has been expensive-$$wise and emotionally. From work, to bad news from friends, bad news from customers, I know, I know...it could be worse, but when you get bombed in small amounts throughout the day, you just want to crawl into a hole and wait for the sun to come up the next day.

So many things to be thankful for, yes, I know. No need for a pep talk, I'll be fine. I just can't believe HOW MANY awful things can happen in a day that just continually SUCK! I don't even like that word.

Advise I've gotten today:

"Let's go do some shots with the kids tonite."
"How about some drinks tonight?" "No, I think I need something more" "Acid?"
(that one shocked me, 'cause I've never done drugs, including Marijuana)
"The people that die young really are the lucky ones!"
"Go home, have a glass of wine, and relax"

Here's hoping that whoever is reading this has had a better day!!

"But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint."-- Isaiah 40:31

Oh, those bad days. Seems like I have had a million and I know exactly where you are coming from. And no remedy is full proof (let me tell you the headache you wake with the next day doesn't make it worth it). As hard as it is to rely on the Lord, he does know what he is doing....sure would like to question him about it at the time. Wonder if he minds a laundry list when we get to heaven. Don't think I would have enough paper in the world for all the questions as to WHY????
