It's Been A Rough Morning

12/12/2017

Good morning, Readers!
Picture
As the image indicates, I snagged this from memgenerator.net (click for link). This was me this morning.
This morning worked well for me.

Not.

I'm having a morning, guys.

It started off alright.  I'm coming down with a cold (the longest buildup to a cold in the history of colds, by the way), so it didn't start well, but it was alright.  I got up in time, at least.  I cuddled Galahad, who is a cuddle monster in the morning.  Ordinarily, it's cute, but I'm coming down with a cold, so I got annoyed.  Poor Galahad.  I did give him lots of cuddles, but it didn't last as long as it usually does.  I knew it was snowing outside, and I needed to leave relatively early, because walking in snow is a little slower than otherwise.

Did I manage to leave early?  NOPE.  More on that later.

I dressed, fed the cats (stopping halfway down the stairs to pet Persephone.  She doesn't really give you a choice.  She stops dead on the stairs and won't let you pass until you pet her), and gathered my things.  I'm at the ChiSeries holiday bash tonight, so I would be hauling along my convention bag.  Problem: my float box wasn't in my convention bag.  Already later than I'd like, I sprinted around the house muttering darkly to myself, looking for the thing.  I couldn't find it.  Now very late, I had no choice but to leave.

For the record, the box is in the living room.  In plain sight.  I just couldn't find it in my frantic state.

So, now I'm without cash or my square payment swipe.  Which I need.  For tonight.

Luckily, my friend Eric is a life saver, and I'm able to borrow a spare swipe for me.  So not all is lost.

I was late to work, of course.

In happier news, the walk in was beautiful.  And really good exercise.  And beautiful.  I love the snow.  I do wish I wasn't in the city, though, and didn't have to walk to work.  I wish I could be out in the country, taking a slow morning walk in the snow before breakfast.

*sigh*

Okay, I've done enough grumbling.  I'm off to do work.  Hopefully see you tonight!

​Ciao!

Sorry about your morning. Hugs. ♥

We have a lot of snow here too, and it's pretty, but I'm really glad I don't have to walk too far in it. My dogs are absolutely LOVING it. :D

Thanks, Jaimey! It's much better now. I've had a coffee and something to eat, so my mood has improved immeasurably.

It is really pretty outside, so that helps.
