Just can't get it right

It's weird how some days you just can't get it right, but other days you feel like nothing can go wrong...and those days can happen one right after the other...it doesn't matter if you are on cloud nine one day, the very next you could be sinking in your own spit.
Today is one of those sinking in my own spit kind of days...I should have stayed in bed...but if I would have done that even more people would be upset with me.
I try not to have "bad" days, but sometimes it's just unavoidable. BUT then again, it is only 11am, this day has the possibility of turning itself around.
OK, as I sit here and stare out the window and have a conversation in my head about why this day is so bad, I can't come up with any one answer. It just is...and here I sit alone, listening to Jimi Hendrix on Pandora. It's also weird how my Pandora station knows my mood in the morning...is there a little magical person hiding in my computer? And they can see if I'm smiling, crying or scowling when I open it up?
All I can say is thank goodness for this blog...it's pure therapy for me.

Joe Purdy sang:
"I just can't seem, to get it right today
I just can't seem, to get it right today
I just can't seem, to get it right today
I guess I'm gonna give up
Oh, I guess I'm gonna give up.

I'm sorry if I made you wanna cry
I'm sorry if I made you wanna cry
You should know I never meant to hid
I just hate bringing' you down
Oh, I just hate bringing' you down."

It's a miserable song...it makes me sad. I wish life was all rainbows and DisneyWorld trips and anything else that makes you happy. BUT it's not...life is filled with arguments, grouchy people, bills, death, sickness and other nasty things. OK, Rhonda turn this day around...

The arguments are a BLESSING because it means you have people in your life to argue with...people that care about you and are arguing because they want the best for you.
The grouchy people are a BLESSING because it means you have people in your life to be a ray of sunshine too...brighten their day, don't let their grouchiness bring you down.
The bills are a BLESSING because it means you have things to pay for like heat, a home, electric and many other things.
Death can be a BLESSING because it means someone was here to share their life and you got to know them while they were here and share in the gifts they had.
Sickness can be a BLESSING because it helps you realize how amazing your family and friend are and it makes you thankful for health when good health returns.

Now, believe it or not, Pandora is playing, "I am a Man of Constant Sorrow" by the Soggy Bottom Boys...

What should I name the magical person in my computer?!?!

OK...it's gonna be a good day.
"You're off to Great Places!
Today is your day!
Your mountain is waiting,
So...get on your way!" ~Dr. Seuss
