My exciting day.

Today I treated myself to all sorts of fun and wonderful things.  Let me just say that your attitude dictates how you feel about things.  Here is two stories of how my day went...

Version 1:
In the morning I had an appointment at the tooth spa.  It was lovely.  I read magazines and got to relax in a chair while people attended to me.  They thought I was so pretty they took pictures of me.  They loved my winning smile. Then I decided to treat myself to an elegant lunch.  I had fun chatting with a friend on the phone and making plans.  Then I decided to go shopping.  I was looking for something specific.  I couldn't find what I was looking for so I visited a few stores.  I enjoyed walking around and getting some exercise.  Then I got in the car for a nice ride home.  It was peaceful and lovely.

Version 2:
Had to go to the dentist.  Blah.  I hate waiting in the waiting room...so what if I was 1/2 hour early.  I read horrible magazines about marriage problems and how to lose 10 pounds in 10 days.  They are nice at my dentist, but they always bring up my wisdom teeth and how "they might need to come out"  Stressful!  They asked me if I was pregnant and then gave me xrays.  I hate those little wing things you have to bite down on. 
I took myself to McDonald's.  I usually eat in the car but decided to go in to eat.  The only place to sit was by someone who looked like a scary homeless man.  The other half of the McDonald's was full of 1st graders on a field trip.  I had to call my doctor's office to change my appointment.  Call,  busy. call, busy, call, busy, call, we are on lunch break until 1:00, call, busy, call...get through and change appointment.  They are sweet there too.  Then I went shopping and couldn't find anything I was looking for.  Annoying and time consuming.  Got in the car to drive home and got behind someone going 10 mph below the speed limit.  I am not a lead foot but I do like going the speed limit.  Made it home a half hour before the kids.

Attitude is everything...

    Although... I have to admit, I've been guilty of having an occassional personal pitty party.....
    I'm trying to do better :)
    Trying to have an attitude of gratitude.
    Hope you have a great weekend!

  2. LOL! Julie, you're too funny! I have to say, version 2 was more fun to read! It made me laugh, only because I've had days like that! Guess I need to change my attitude too!

  3. That is so funny because I LOVE getting my teeth cleaned. Course, I work in a dental office so when i get to sit there and do nothing, it's a huge treat. I feel like I really am going to a tooth spa and getting a massage for my teeth! I know, I'm weird.

    Attitude is most definitely everything!
    Cute post!
