"Oh what a beautiful morning, oh what a beautiful day. I've got a wonderful feeling, everything's going my way...." I believe the musical Oklahoma begins with that song. Anyway, that was how this morning started. The coffee was good, Cheerios just the right crispiness(this is all true by the way) okay, I also add "nutty nugets" and "strawberry flakey things" and a couple shredded wheat biscuits; I'm a cereal freak but back to what I was getting to. Happy me happened to look up as I passed through the living room, and I saw that the newly patched ceiling in the living room was presenting with those brown water marks. Noooooo!! Somebody forgot to call the roofer to recheck for leaks as the roofer said. Yeah, Scott forgot to call the roofer and then well, there are the cat boxes that are over-needing to be dealt with, and the EARTHQUAKE this week, you guessed it, Scott Howard's fault!
Beautiful days can go up in smoke if our intention is to find fault with everying the other guy didn't do. I had a mini rant this morning there is no doubt about that. I was on a roll! I could still be ranting though, but I learned in this second time around marriage to be much more careful with my days. It is MY responsibility to do just that. I listened as Scott told me that he felt attacked and that he did forget but would get right on it. As for the cat boxes, he planned on picking up the cat litter when he was out. I stopped, I listened, I hugged. We went to Lowes, we did yard work, we are going out to dinner after church, and the rest of our Saturday has been great and it's our own fault:).
