On the bright side...

Today was one of those days that just went wrong right from the beginning. Starting with the realization that I'm getting sick (ouch, my sinuses!), almost being late to the bus stop, scrambling to get stuff done at work... blah blah blah one annoying thing after another...and ending with one of Lorelai's most epic meltdowns to date (oh hello, terrible twos).

But in an effort to practice what I've been trying to preach to the boys, I'm going to stop dwelling on the negative and look at the bright side:

• Adam is home now after a work trip.
• The weather was really nice today.
• I got positive feedback on some information I presented during a meeting today (which almost made up for a slight dig about something else at work).
• There's pumpkin spice coffee at work.
• The week is more than halfway over.
• The kids are in bed and Survivor is on, so I can totally veg on the couch from now until bedtime.

 I'm hoping a good night sleep is all I need to wake up on the right side of the bed tomorrow.
