Last Time I Checked.......



Have you ever woke up and just felt like the day
was already doomed....?


I woke up that way today ....
like "Great.....here goes another day....in a hotel........." 


Today i caught myself though.... 
I thought ..." well that stinks!   i really wanted to
have some Saturday fun.....but the weather is gloomy and i feel   UGLY inside."


I decided at that very moment......

I am gonna get my raunchy butt outta bed and have......

A GREAT DAY OR BUST!

(okay...if we were being totally honest here,  then i would have to admit that
the real first thing i decided was to get up and stumble my way to 
that lil' fridge in the corner of my room and enjoy the crap out of a Dr. pepper!)

(No,  I'm serious..... i actually made a conscious decision to "enjoy a Dr. Pepper 
like it was my first one ever.....)

Does that ruin the inspirational feel of this post?

Sorry bout that....but if you're gonna spill your  guts .....

let's make it for real eh!

Okay,  back to the big picture ....

Here's the deal....

The Last Time I Checked.........

I  alone was in charge of my Happiness.....

I get to decide if  I want to have a good day....


Not the weather man....

Not the tired muscles ....

Not even the hotel room.....

I decide. 

Me.

In the end....
When I meet my maker....


I can't hold inatimate objects responsible for my ways.
Pretty sure He won't be buyin' it!

I can try to put it out on the lawn for sale but ...
like i said...
Pretty sure he aint gonna buy it!

So I am going to load the munchkids in the car and 
jam out to my favorite CD and .....
Smile at passer-bys.....
Adore the flowers...
Show extraordinary amounts of Patience to all....
and

Have a Great Day or Bust!

Wishing you a decidedly great day too........xoxo   shell

  1. Hooray for today! (Does that help any?) I so know those days where you wake up hating the world and everything about it. It really does take a change of mindset to make things better. I hope your day ends up wonderful. May great adventure find you and keep you throughly entertained.
