hmmm…..
Today is my birthday. It started out great … I got to sleep in and then after making coffee, I sat down to open the cards I had received over the past few days. One was a beautiful poem from a friend and there was a small package from my daughter. The box held a beautiful necklace that she had made herself. It was dear to me. I left it on the coffee table and went to my bathroom to get ready for work. I was planning on wearing the necklace to work. When I looked on the coffee table to put it on, it wasn’t there.
My dog has this habit of eating things. I looked everywhere for the necklace, knowing that she had gotten it, but hoping she hadn’t completely destroyed it. Looking outside in her pen, I found it. Or rather the pieces of it. I was mad, frustrated, sad and disappointed all at the same time. I had been having such a great birthday and that discovery ruined it. On top of everything else, it occurred to me that my dog might have even eaten some of the wire – and that would be disastrous.
Does that happen to you sometimes? Things cave in on you at the most inopportune times. They all flood together and we get overwhelmed. I am not sure how I will deal with it, but I know life will go on … In the meantime, all I can do is just hang in there and hope for the best …. Grateful that I have made it another year and hoping for a bright future in the next year.
hmmm…..
