  1. Thanks for this. It is so true. I was having a bad day this weekend; my poor husband was convinced I was mad at him – and I was, a little. Mainly it was just a million little things that added up to me being in a prickly funk. It’s hard to remember that sometimes, bad days just happen when you’re in the middle of them, though, so, thanks for this.

  2. Wow. This was just what I needed. I’ve been feeling pretty awful the last couple of days and you have snapped me out of it! What a surprise to find this! Thank you!!!!
