Today was a day not in my luck, to start off the day I was sitting on the bus heading into work, it was 7am, I was looking out the window enjoying the sunrise and minding my own business. For some reason the bus company decided that they should have these plastic seats instead of cloth. These seats must be easier to clean but they are quite hard to stay in one spot as you slide around on the seats with every turn or stop or hill it goes down, Halifax Is filled with insanely steep hills so bracing myself while on these seats has become second nature. Well not yesterday! Taking the normal route to work we get to the steepest hill of the route and for some reason the driver slams on his breaks. Well I never had time to react and in front of the whole bus I go sliding right off the seat! The bus driver asks if I’m ok, the people addicted to their phones look up and stare and I do the hurt ego face as I pick myself up and sit back down. Not knowing what to do I sit there look back out the window.
Well you would think that is enough of an unfortunate day but oh no it is not over yet!
Upon arriving at work we were doing a Personal development day and got to go out to a park. There was a pond frozen and thick, and a co worker of mine was standing and walking on it. Seeing that It was very solid I went a little further down and put one foot onto a rock and the other onto the ice, well that was not solid ice and i went right through up to my knee. Hauling myself out I tried to make it non Chelant and brush it off. But as the cold set in I had to go home and change which resulted in me sporting my favourite skirt and my big old winter boots!
After those two episodes I thought to myself that has to be it, there can’t be anything else that can happen………. well my momma always said things come in three and boy was she right. When I got home changed and went back to meet up with the group, we went out for lunch. Yumm. We were eating laughing and talking away when I started to not feel so good, I couldn’t figure out why, I’ve eaten it all before and I was only drinking water. So I brushed it off kept enjoying the meal and company, the waitress comes around and refills our waters, that’s when I notice there are slices of limes in the water! In case you don’t know I’m quite allergic to limes. So that solved the mystery as to why I wasn’t feeling good. Needless to say I my body did not result well.
Once I got home, showered, FaceTimed my beautiful niece, and relaxed I fell asleep fast anxious for the new day to begin.
Yikes!!! Trusting today will be better!!!
Thank heavens for niece, a very nice way to end a rough day. 🙂
Sarina, that sounds like a crazy bad day! Glad that you are safe and warm! Love from Alberta ❤️
