Happiness is... knowing you've made it through one more day

from the Charles M. Schulz book, Happiness is a Sad Song


Some days are like a comedy of errors.
Some days feel like the better choice would have been to stay in bed and try again tomorrow.
Some days being a grown-up with responsibilities just stinks.
Today was some sort of day in our house and it made me (and John) happy to just get through it.

Is it a full moon? Is something way off balance? H- is mercury in retrograde again...?! :-)

And it wasn't just us. It seems like something went on with so many people we know. Serious things... surgeries, illnesses, hospitalizations... and those are far more concerning than the things that happened in our house. Nevertheless, it was still one of "those" days.

Some days, the washer overflows (which ours did today).
Other days, your cup runneth over.
Thankfully, most days, it's the cup.

I'm sorry you had "one of those days" also, so sorry it has taken me so long to send a note. With our hospital stay and then being super sick I did not have a chance to get caught up. So sorry I missed the Cath for Gracie. WOW, so much..you are an amazing strong mommy! AND Gracie is one tough girly! Always, praying for you all!
Luke was looking at your blog with me and when he saw Preston in the car, he said, "Mom do you think he would want to go with me someday?" I said, I am sure his mommy and I can work that out! :) Luke loves cars!
Once we get a little settled and are germ free, would love to get together if you are up for it.
Big hugs,
Terra

I am glad to hear that you got through the day... sorry to hear it was "one of those days". The good thing is that you always look to the positive even when it has been one of those days! I hope you have a better today :O)

Kristi, I am so sorry you guys had one of those days. Supposedly mercury is out of retrograde :-) but at this point nothing would surprise me (I'm not entirely convinced it ever left)!
Could we blame it on the rain (cue Milli Vanilli)?

In any event, I am so hopeful that this new day brings a lighter feeling in your heart. Or at least an (unspilled) Venti yummy and a peek of sunshine.

Much love. xoxo

I think we all have "one of those days" it can be so hard. I hope the rest of your week gets better. I know we had "one of those days" as well.
