I had to work
today, but we got to throw a luncheon for the production folks that
make us look so good. Everyone enjoyed it and there was a ton of
food. I was happy to show my appreciation.
Before that could happen, I
had to get to work, right? Yup, had to get there. I got
about 15 minutes from home, less than 2 city blocks from the
interstate, and my driver's side front tire blew. I was going 60,
but kept control and pulled into a church (gravel) parking lot.
Kevin came to trade vehicles, and he waited for AAA to send a
truck. My van is getting 2 new tires tonight, but needs other
attention. Think good thoughts over my husband tomorrow, while he
fixes the van...(and while the Chiefs kick the hell out of the Broncos.)
I could be sad about my
plight, but I'm not. The van is paid for. I'm getting
OT. Everyone in the house is healthy, and Mom provided a great
Thanksgiving dinner today. I needed that.
The North wind is howling,
and my van is in trouble. It doesn't matter. I'm
happy. I'm DAMN happy. My new attitude is working great at
work, and baffling many of the jerks that used to cause the
problems. I can smile (sincerely) and nod and speak only when it
will benifit the situation. I'm happy and loving my job
again. The new attitude is working. I like it. I
should bottle and sell it.

Damn, that van seems to be one nightmare after the next. I sure hope you can replace it fairly soon. It's a money pit that seems to have a desire to become a death trap as well. Money pits and death traps are supposed to be fun cars with over powered engines and stuff that grabs the attention of cops. You know, a muscle car with loud pipes and lots of chrome!
Glad that new apporach at work is working for you, babe. :-x

I like the attitude! I need to try it out myself.
