It took me an hour to get the 5 miles to home tonight after work. *sigh* Traffic opened up right at my exit *sigh* I kept reminding myself that hey, at least I wasn't in the accident, right? I am telling ya my positive affirmations are constantly thrown down into a hole by my negative side. All I could think about was an hour of my life wasted after wasting 8 1/2 at work. *sigh*

I decided a long walk on my own was in order.

I ran into several friendly people. One is a neighbor with a dog who I always wave to, but can never approach because of my Kraymer. I got to say hi to her dog. It was nice. Then I passed a man who said "This was a great idea!" I can only assume he was referring to going for a walk. I had to smile and say "it sure was!". Then I passed a random lady who said hi. I was smiling, and I kept my smile. I walked all around the wastewater they call our "lake". I got lost for a few minutes but just kept on trucking. I ended up finding my way. A full circle! I thought I was going to be trapped by a fence but there was an open door in it which practically led me to my "back yard".

All in all, I feel better. I think I need to do that more often. I still seek change, I think I always will, but by the time I got home tonight from work I was ready to spit nails. Now I am content!

Thanks for listening to all my whining and negativity. You guys are the bestest! This is also not a promise that it will stop. :0)

Happy Wednesday!
