So, my day started out with a bang. Actually I guess it was more like a splat, the sound my daughter's foot no doubt made when it landed in the poop our elderly, senile, feline friend deposited outside her litter box. Then there was the smear my daughter's foot left across the carpet before she realized she had stepped in said cat poop. Oh joy!
The fun didn't stop there. I walked into the kitchen and realized some mail that came yesterday that I was really interested in looking at was no longer on the counter where I had left it. My hubby, in an effort to be helpful, had deposited it into the kitchen trash can, which I then had the pleasure of sifting through in order to retrieve said mail. More joy! All this before 7:00a.m., and after the whole family had overslept!
Some days counting our blessings and being joyful is truly a choice that must be consciously made. So today my mantra is "This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it." After all, the sun is shining, the sky is blue, the fall colors are beautiful. It's gonna be a great day!
