Have you ever had one of those days where you cry, a lot, for no reason? Asking for a friend. I don’t know what her problem is because her day seemed to be okay. For instance, she got up on time to get her car to the shop for her appointment to get the car inspection. She held her breath all morning petrified of the results of the inspection, but as luck would have it there were no immediate threats. There are threats that should be taken care of within the next year, which she can live with, so that’s not a reason to cry.
Then, this past Tuesday, she was invited to participate in a craft show (uncanny so similar to me) which at first she turned down due to a previous engagement, then emailed back in the middle of the night to say “wait, I can do it”..and even though they had already moved on to the next person, the next person also cancelled so she was able to get into the craft show. But with the car being inspected at the shop she had no idea if she could get to the craft show site to set up prior to the start of the craft show start tomorrow morning. And then, because God smiles on the downtrodden, at times, the car was ready at a time that she was able to pick up the car, swing by her apartment, pack up the boxes and drive the hour to the craft show site. She was very unprepared because she had no tablecloth big enough but they were able to provide one. She was embarrassed at her unpreparedness but stopped by Walmart on her way home and bought 6 tablecloths (disposables) – 3 to reimburse the event place and 3 to keep for herself. And get this, the organization sponsoring this event works with the blind! How kismittey because she has a blind mother. So immediately loves the organization.
Her day went pretty splendidly having her car inspected without incident, making it to the craft center, surprised they’re an organization that works with the blind, got all set up, drove home in the pouring down rain, which was stressful, like VERY stressful but when she came home the sun came out and the sky turned blue.
So why cry? What’s her problem?
I guess we all have days like that. It’s cloudy, rainy, grey, and sometimes you just need a day to let it all out. At least that’s what I told her.
Happy Friday
xoxoxo
PS – Not a lot of progress on the painting. It was a busy week.
“Momma said they’ll be days like this, there’ll be days like this my momma said “…hum a few bars of this oldie but goodie song and smile. You’re not alone. We all have days like this. Here’s to “Sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows” ♥️ positive vibes for a better tomorrow ♥️
