Ever woken up in the morning resolving that today will be different? My sunday was far from sunny, I was bogged down by so many things and I allowed too many issues to upset me. From one unctuous ‘brother’ in church who has refused to leave me alone to being compelled to do what I didnt want to do. Anyways, to say the least, I was simply upset.
Called my twin in the evening and poured out my heart. She’s always there and always understands!!! Always!
Anyway, her advice was not to carry over all this into the new week and I agreed. I went over the whole days activities, forgiving myself and everyone who i thought was remotely connnected with the way things turned out. To cut a long story short, i woke up this morning expecting a better day…
I lost my key on the way to work and wasted a few more minutes looking for it! Of course I got to the office late, 9 mins only but late anyway.
We had an impromptu meeting in the morning where the boss decided to keep everyone standing for so long- left with my legs aching.
Have a project and a deadline to beat and enough pressure from the other 2 people working on it. Had to go to Oregun during break (tried to squeeze this in in 1 hour) and back. Waited for what seemed like ages for the person i was to meet before I decided to leave and then the rain started. My break time was over and I was not even in the office. If only I had credit on my phone but i didnt so i wasted more time at a business centre where the girls refused to allow me to dial the number and insisted on doing it themselves. Anyways, when the rain started , I left (was a drizzle but I didnt want to get wet). (I’ve cut the story short)
Got to Ojota, and there was hold up! walked part of the way in the hot sun!!!!!!!!!!!!and got to the bus stop and was further annoyed by all the noise.
Got down at the bus stop and for what is such a short distance , the silly okada man wanted to charge 30bucks. refused to pay and walked back. got in 35mins late!!!!!!!!!! and upsetter than ever…………………………….Went to the toilet for a good cry!!!!!!!!!!!(Thank God it was clean)
This is almost 2hours after all these details and I guess i feel much better. And i wonder, how do people handle ‘bad’ days!!!!!!!!!
I know this is mild compared to most!
I thank God I can write (I went to school), I am alive (that’s why I went out) and a whole host of other things! Its just that i realise that when the heat is up its difficult to Thank God! Grumbling is more likely to erupt than thanks. I’m working on it but i’m very far away!
