Good Morning my Shopping buddies!
How is everyone? I've had a weekend full of feeling like crud. What a horrible time of year. I know that Jeanne and Emily have been battling this ugly winter yuckies. blah is what I say to that!
Today a quote, which kinda makes me chuckle...but in a way it can relate to our lives in many ways!
It takes 8,460 bolts to assemble an automobile, and one nut to scatter it all over the road. ~Author unknown, as seen on a bumper sticker
How true is this for you? How many times in your life do you feel like you are so well put together or that things are just so, but one LITTLE thing will come along and rattle you. Completely turn your universe into a tailspin. Why does that happen!!! Why can we have 99% of things go our way but that 1% comes along and whacks us!
Can you recall a situation where something so small amounted to something so insurmountable?
I can think of a day where MOST women would experience this. A wedding day. Why do so many brides fret over the little things? When there are bigger fish to fry we have meltdowns over hair, or flowers or the like. Maybe it's the horrible shade of purple that your soon to be MIL is wearing. Whatever it is I know that a lot of brides get completely crazy on their wedding days. I for one can honestly wholeheartedly say that my wedding day was full of fun and relaxation. Sure, I was 2 hours late to my own wedding but then again I never once let it bother me! I'm so glad too! Remember, you want the marriage not the wedding!
So tell me, what's a situation where one little thing goes wrong that has thrown your whole day/situation off?
Hugs,
