Bad day

I've had a bad day.

Bad days aren't good, because often times they're started by another person's bad day, and then because of you're bad day, you cause someone else to have a bad day. It's a vicious cycle.

My day didn't start off extremely well, because my car was out of gas. I got up extra early to go get gas, but then realized my windows were icy. That took the extra time I had given myself, making me rushed to get gas. But, all was fine, I ended up at work at an appropriate time.

I then wanted to make it a great day. BUT, someone else, to whom I'm trying to give the benefit of the doubt and just saying s/he had a bad day too, did not help my day improve...a couple of times.

Then, I come home to find the parking situation around our house a total mess...so I park down the street. I walk up to the house and Chuck says, "You'll need to move your car." I snapped at him, because I was already parking a mile away from my house anyway, where else was I supposed to park it? And I had had a bad day. So, now I've probably made his day bad.

Yes, we can choose our attitudes...choose to be happy...yadayadayada. But sometimes it's REALLY hard. But, now I feel bad that my bad day may have caused Chuck to have a bad day. So, I need to try harder to keep my bad days under the radar. I don't want to be the cause of another person's bad day.
