{Heidi and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day}



Let me introduce you to Alexander, a dear friend of mine. He's a kid who has had a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day.





This is how he described the beginning of this terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day: "I went to sleep with gum in my mouth and now there's gum in my hair and when I got out of bed this morning I tripped on the skateboard and by mistake I dropped my sweater in the sink while the water was running and I could tell it was going to be a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day."




Sometimes, we have days like this, today is somewhat like that for me. I wouldn't use the words "terrible", "horrible", "no good", and "very bad" all in the same sentence to describe it...but maybe 2 or 3 out of the 4 would suffice.


It's just a lot of things......like.......like the terrible weather today, I woke up with a headache,  my face decided it wanted to go back to my 13 yr old breakout stage, I forgot my flash drive/notes for my data analysis class, one of my group members have disappeared, I have 12078372 papers/tests before the semester ends, plan A hasn't worked out, plan B just died, I don't have a plan C because I'm too stubborn to move past plan A let alone B, I'm going to be on campus all day today, I don't know all the answers, my biology class is a joke so I have skipped it for the billionth time today, my apartment is a mess, there are millions of clothes to iron, the homemade Oreos I made last night did not turn out too good, I have anxiety up the wazoo, I need a nap, I have eaten too much Halloween candy today, my sociology classes are a bit too revealing for comfort today, and it doesn't look like I'll be getting to bed anytime soon tonight.


Wow. Am I a whiner or what?


I am very blessed and live a great great life with lots of friends and family who love me.
But sometimes it's just hard.

But my boss just put 2 BYU brownies on my desk.......maybe this day is starting to look up!
