My schedule is off this week.
I’m not a girl who adjusts well.
Doctors appointments in the middle of my day and cars in the body shop do not make me happy.
Plus, I accidentally poured too much flaxseed meal into my steel cut oats this morning and now they taste grainy.
I’m choosing the bright side today though.
There was a bag in the trash can this morning when I woke up.
Cassidy’s thermos was clean and ready to be filled with yet another day’s lunch.
Nobody grumbled about the breakfast menu: oatmeal.
Jayce woke up on the right side of the crib and happily snuggled with his sappy mom for a few minutes.
And he hadn’t wet through his diaper. Score!
There was just enough of the expensive orange juice left for me to get my vitamin down.
Jeff was able to get out of business travel so that we can pick up my car tomorrow.
I love my car.
The two sore throats in our house never developed into full fledged anything.
I only have three loads of laundry left over from yesterday.
My hair hasn’t greased up so much as to prevent me from squeezing one more showerless day out of it.
Did that gross you out?
Sorry.
Suffice it to say that so far my day has it’s good points.
Hope yours will too.

Sounds like a good start to me! Way to appreciate the little blessings every day. :)
Glad you are gtting your car back soon. Such a pain to be without one I know. When I had my accident (the other guy’s fault) we had a rental for weeks, then were down to one car for months while the insurance companies worked it out. It was AWFUL! Thankfully only one child at the time though.
Sounds like glass half full, you go girl!
I’m glad you’re looking on the bright side! Some mornings it’s hard to see the little blessings. I’m glad Jeff was able to get out of traveling and you are getting your car back tomorrow!
Good for you…optimism is a good thing! Hope the day continues on the right path.
Good for you for looking for (and finding) the bright side.
Mmm…Grainy oatmeal…Can’t you just taste the goodness? *ack!*
Flaxseed in oatmeal…I’ll have to try it.
Also, I am need of a good mulit-vitamin…what do you take?
And, about the hair? You didn’t gross me out one bit. It definitely counts as a bright side! Sometimes getting my hair done is the biggest chore of my day!
I love the bright side. I love your bright points. It’s the little things, Darcie. If you can be happy and thankful for the little things, then life is bound to be the berries!
I love your bright side MY friend! ;)
Love this one! :-)
especially about the hair – because lets be honest, I’m not sure when I showered last . . . haha
