Do you ever have those days that are just terrible and then something good happens and you forget you were having a bad day? I had one of those days yesterday.
It seems that every Monday is the same thing. Awkward. I hate using that word because I feel it is overused, but that's the best way to describe Monday. Every Monday morning I wake up cautiously put both feet on the ground and say, "here it goes... let's see what this Monday will bring." It's totally unpredictable.
Okay, back to my story. So I'm having a typical Monday, and then I get a surprising phone call from someone that is across the world- literally. I hadn't talked to him in months, and to be honest it took me a second to remember who he was. But I couldn't take the smile off my face once I did. It truly made my day to know that someone else was thinking about me and took the time to call. After our conversation, the whole day was better. I even ran farther than I normally do, and I didn't even notice. It was God's way of whispering in my ear and saying, "Lee, keep your chin up, you will never be alone."
So I am going to try to start my day with cereal tomorrow, and get a decent workout in before I go to bed tonight... get back on track. When you are on the road, there is no one there to take care of you but yourself. You are always the stranger coming into a group of friends. Every week is like the first day of 6th grade or something, where you put on your best outfit and hope everyone likes you, and that by lunchtime someone will ask you to sit at their table so you don't have to eat lunch in the bathroom.
As far as Tuesdays go, this one is pretty good. However, Wednesday has always been a favorite.
I found this, and couldn't resist. No, this isn't about any of the places I have visited or about my own chapter. But every time I look at this I laugh, and I heard laughing burns calories.Keep your fingers crossed for Wednesday....
I really like your blog dear!
