I'm easily annoyed this evening. For example, I wanted to find a cute background for this lovely blog. I started looking, but didn't immediately find one I was in love with so I just picked one that was ok. When I couldn't figure out how to make it work on the first and second try I got annoyed and quit. Now I feel very annoyed and agitated. Ugh, sometimes I wish I had more patience with little things like that. There's no reason to get upset with something so silly.
I've always been good about keeping the things that bother me inside and not letting anyone know that they bothered me. But you can't bottle things up forever. Eventually they start to leak out in the little things - like trying to change your blog background. I suppose if I had blogged about the big things that have been annoying me, maybe I wouldn't lose my patience with the little things. Who knows =P
To make myself think more positively, here are some things I am thankful for:
My wonderful husband who sometimes keeps from going nuts and other time forces me to it.
My fuzzy little puppy that gets so sad when I leave him that he tears into his bag of treats and barfs them all back up on the couch.
My job that challenges me to act like Christ even when I think the person I'm talking to on the phone is a complete moron.
Health insurance that actually covers expenses and will allow me to receive the care I need without worrying about $50 billion in doctor's bills coming after me for one simple check up.
Friends in my own town that I can meet with and decompress to whenever, which, for awhile, I thought would never come.
My family, which is the best and most wonderful family in the whole wide world.
