Expectations...

We all have some expectations on a daily basis of how things will go for the day, right?
And most notably, we as adults are able to deal with any possible minor disappointments that the day may give us from not meeting our beliefs of just how things should have gone for that day, correct?
Sure, barring anything major like extreme illness accident or death, true?
Absolutely!
That is why today’s choice of entertainment was not that big a deal on the expectation odometer.

To be kind would be to call it a dud.
The problem is when I hear of anything of entertainment value occurring within a decent road trip’s distance for us to go to, to enjoy I have this unrelenting tendency or need to spread the word so others too can have fun!
And then I silently go into my embarrassment mode when I realize that perhaps the excitement I stirred had gone flat, and when I don’t hear from my list of contacts who I anointed with my enthusiasm I reevaluate the reasoning for me to want to be somewhat of a town crier.

Today was one of those days…sorry folks!
The arts and crafts show seems to have been same old same old, not anything new under the sun, not even that much art or crafts to be honest, and that sun I mentioned which happened to be blocked by clouds and also a nasty wind that kept us in the high fifties today instead of the mid-seventies as we should have been!

The best things that happened for this day is that I accomplished the completion of my first epic novel early this morning before we left for lunch, which was not too bad at Bob Evans that now serves a few low cal healthy dishes. I had a spinach salad with cranberries, pecans, apples, and chicken with fruited vinaigrette, 380 calories so it said! (At least I hope so). Skinny Hubby had a ‘rise and shine’ a big late breakfast that he enjoyed too!

Hubby called his Mom and was recognized by her!
All is well, when that occurs, right?
And so all in all it was not too bad of a day after all folks.
We all must make the most of those little things in life that brighten our days, correct friends? Correct.

And so on that positive note I will wish you all a good night and ask you to count those blessings that you do have when you look hard enough and we will count ours too!

Which way will the war go?
