so today i thought, “i’m not even writing a “happiness is” entry because besides mondays suck in general” and because my day started off with: dropping off Carter at school and realizing he left his backpack at home; dropping off Max at daycare and realizing i forgot to bring a check to pay for this week; getting gas and discovering that the auto shut-off…ummm…DOESN’T, as overpriced gas pours down the side of my car then splashes off the ground on to me; followed by realizing, once i made it to work and parked the car, that i forgot to leave Max’s bottles with him at daycare. UGGGH! HOWEVER, after a little bit of reflection (and maybe gas fume intoxication), i discovered the following. At least our home isn’t too far from Carter’s school, at least there’s a grace period on daycare payments, at least i have a car to drive and money to buy gas, at least i have a way to return to daycare and a handful more reasons to think about my kids during a busy day. and about mondays…at least i had an enjoyable weekend and made it to another week. that’s the beauty of this exercise….you can even find good things to ponder on a monday.
