I was not at my best this past weekend. I was tired and was flying around like a crazy little monkey.
When I get tired it is harder for me to respond to anything from the place I want to. I like to be joyful, graceful, understanding and patient. This weekend...not so much! :)
I was waiting on a man Friday night who is just rude most of the time. He is demanding and makes snippy remarks all the time. Most of the time I am charming back and smile. This weekend...at one point I said under my breathe...but out loud...""he is such a pain in my butt! I looked up and there stood his son-in-law! I must have looked like a deer caught in the headlights! He just laughed and smile and winked! Seems like he feels the same way some days! But still...not how I would choose most days to respond.
Then this morning I was working on-line and my internet went down. I again...because I am tired from a very long work weekend went into a less than joyful mode! I was bemoaning the piece of equipment I just bought that wasn't working and carrying on a bit in my house. I could not get the phone number of my Internet provider because I could not bring up my internet!
I decided to check everything one more time before I was going to get dressed and go next door to ask if I could use their computer to contact my provider. What did I discover? The power cord under my desk was unplugged! Good lord!!!! I could have been talking to my provider's customer service in India and they would really think Americans are dumb!!!! :)
The life lessons covered again this morning...rest is important and start at the beginning and make sure you have the basics covered! Both have been issues for me these past few weeks. One of these days I will get those lessons and be able to move on to new ones! That will be a nice change I think...
