I ignored my superstitious thoughts and got out of bed on Chris' side. That will be the last time I ignore those nagging thoughts that I should get of of bed on the right side.
It's not that I was in a bad mood all day. On the contrary, I woke up feeling rested and ready to carpe diem...or something.
And then everything went downhill. Down one big giant steep and rocky hill.
The details are pretty inconsequential at this point. Let's just say that I was ready for the damn day to be over as soon as I walked in the door to my house. Only it didn't even stop there.
As I was about to burst into tears in my kitchen, I got this message:
"I know its hard to think of the positive when life seems to suck. But it can help sometimes. Here's a start, you have a beautiful little girl who is more adorable than should be allowed, a great husband who would do anything within his power for you. And at least one friend (and I'm willing to bet plenty more) that is grateful for a friend like you."
And I smiled.
And then I cuddled up with Jayna and smelled her head. That's what I do in times of trial. It's comforting and reminds me of rainbows.
