Today was one of those days that wasn’t great. It wasn’t awful, either but definitely bordered on really annoying/frustrating. More things on my to-do list than I can possibly fit in to a shortened work week. I’m still congested from the weekend. Plus I think my sciatic nerve is right on the verge getting pinched because every time I walk I have shooting pains down my leg and my right butt cheek feels like it’s about to cramp at any given moment all the live long day. See? Nothing awful…just…annoying. We just had Rylee’s parent teacher conference, long story short, it was great {though no surprise}. I’ll brag go into some more detail on it tomorrow…it deserves it’s own post and right now I don’t have the time.

Andy left the conference to go pick up the girls while I headed to Subway to grab dinner for him and myself {the girls are eating with his parents tonight}. I got home, settled in {i.e. peed and changed into yoga pants} then started a fire. I was just firing up my laptop to write my Monday post for NaBloPoMo when he called to tell me they were on their way home. Hence the ten minutes thing. And that’s assuming my country-fied internet decides to actually show up tonight since I’m on my computer and not my phone. {note to self: get your ass on the phone with a new internet provider}

I’m lying here on the floor next to the fire trying some different stretches to see what will work to release the pinching in my butt but I’m no longer annoyed about my day. It’s funny how one interaction can change your entire outlook on a day. I normally try to always keep a positive attitude with things, or at least my sense of humor but there are times I can get so caught up in me-me-me that I don’t think about all the greatness going on around me.

I really need to remember that and apply it to my interactions with others…how I can I positively impact someone else’s day?

Welp, the family is home. Times up!
