Tormenting Tuesday

After a wonderful Monday off...I almost forgot about an early morning event today!! How could I forget I was gonna see Ben Stein? I was so exhausted...I couldn't sleep all night. My poor Bella had a mini seizure last night which only I witnessed. It was so scary. She's done this before, but luckily it only happened once. Last time we couldn't get it to stop. I woke up DH in a hurry...good thing there wasn't a fire or anything b/c he would be toast. I know he always thinks I'm freaking out but it's my poor doggie. I can't even imagine what will happen when kids come along.



Back to my morning with no sleep...I knew this week would be killer (I have an event every night this week) so of course I went in to work seeking the worst and with a bad attitude...shame on me. My whole day was turned around though. Stein talked about the economy, civic engagement, the war, and the breakdown of the American family. I agreed children today have no manner or responsibility and it made me appreciate how obsessive my mother is about everything from being polite to looking your best.
Then I had wonderful news...a friend at work just got engaged and her ring shined as much as her permanent smile. I'm so happy for her...it's what she really wanted and she's such a genuine good person. Plus another friend at work is having twins! She'd been trying for sometime and with a little help now has two miracles growing in her belly. She looked so glowing, proud, and excited. I'm so happy for her too! It made me think... In the scheme of things maybe this tormenting Tuesday wasn't so tormenting at all. Positivity breeds positivity and it was contagious today. So thank you God for blessing these wonderful people and helping to brighten my day all at the same time.
