What?
WHAT!!!!?
OMG, WWWWWWHHHHHYYYY?!!!
*stamps foot*….!!!
Wheeewwww!
Scuze me, beloveds, I am trying to get some act right so I can turn my DAMNED 🍋 LEMONS INTO UPLIFTING LEMONADE FOR YOU. OMG!!!
*Cassandra stops 😡 pouting long enough to tell her mournful, terribly sad and awfully what in the fresh hell tale*.
*Cassandra thinks she is being really dramatic about this*
*Cassandra becomes angry with reasonable Cassandra, and they get into a terribly entertaining fight*
*Tired of fighting, Cassandra shares her sad, sad, terrible tale*:
I was in the mood for 🥣 cereal. Golden Grahams to be precise. I decided to do an emergency order and ordered some cereal, some 🥪 sandwich fixings and odds and ends and breathlessly awaited my order.
A while later, the 🚪 doorbell rings. Okay, I don’t have a doorbell, and they left the order without knocking, but still…
I fling the door open to find everything but the Golden Grahams!!! Or, so I thought.
I call the store. Calmly 😡 mad. The store was NOT helpful. Rude, in fact.
I had to tell act right to STAY on the high road. In truth, I dearly wanted to use the low road. I chose the high road.
I told myself to just make sandwiches 🥪 after remembering the sandwich fixings.
Dramatically, I pulled out turkey, cheese, and reach for the buns, and there were no buns!! They forgot the buns and canned goods as well!!!! OMG!!!
I wanted to act a fool. I didn’t. In the end, I found some old buns and made some sandwiches. I ordered more cereal. I got on with my life.
Life is short, beloveds. Things happen. Inconvenient things. Frustrating things. Things that will make the way a bit longer.
That’s okay. Roll with the punches. Go another way. Try something different. Make a new plan. Refurbish the old one.
I used this situation to make ME better. I chose not to be angry with the driver. I chose not to be angry with the store. I chose not to be angry.
I chose to laugh. I chose to get on with my evening. In the past, I would have spent the rest of the evening stewing. I would have gone to bed hungry. I would have played the martyr and not fixed something else to eat.
I am growing. Slowly. I am learning. Slowly. I am hungry…lol.
I’m fixing to enjoy some sammiches. Who wants to join me?
asking for A Friend,
Cassandra
