The Little Stuff…

Sometimes, I swear it’s the little stuff that can really make or break my day.  One minor irritation isn’t too bad, but when you get several bundled together, suddenly your having a bad day.  On the flip side, one good thing is just that, where several good things equals a good day.  The big question I have to ask is do they counterbalance.  Well, today they did.  Minor irritations, my daughter leaving the playdough outside after she’d already went off to bed, my son taking my mop bucket to the garage to ‘help dad’ and not returning it (yeah, more than a minor irritation on this one, since I needed the bucket to clean up a mess.).  Suddenly I can see my evening slowing taking a turn for the worse.  Then I made a conscious decision to change things.  After they went to be, I took a nice, long, hot bath and oh my, can I tell you that my perspective has changed.  Sometimes it really is the little things that can make or break a day!
