random thoughts – Day 1,765 – (Wednesday) – delights and annoyances

It was a day with ripples and bumps comprised of small delights and not-huge but too-frequent annoyances.

Blurry Kiki chasing a blurry ball.

Kiki played with a ball – delight! (Also a miracle, because in the past 11 months, she has never played in front of me.)

Missed getting a good photo of Kiki’s milestone of playing with a ball, so fuzzy has to do – annoyance. 

The tire pressure is low again – annoyance.

The drive to work is back to the regular traffic and knuckleheads blocking the intersections – annoyance.

The new stop sign configuration at the parking garage has some drivers confused about the meaning of the word “stop” and flashing red lights – annoyance.

Bagel!

Got a parking spot on the second level instead of level five – delight. 

Bagels, cream cheese, and a fruit tray for breakfast at the office – delight.

The paper plates, usually in the cabinet, were all gone (again) – annoyance (ongoing variety).

Lunch was quiche and fruit – delight.

The Internet went out mid-afternoon – annoyance.

Sautéed veggies.

It was 24 degrees when walking to the garage – annoyance.

Traffic on the way home was light – delight.

Slipped on ice in my driveway and hit the ground – annoyance.

Supper (sautéed veggies) took only 10 minutes to make – delight. 

At least the delights and annoyances kinda sorta balanced each other out. Thank goodness for the delights or my head might explode.
