What a lousy day … I overslept, woke up still mad at my husband, PMSing, was late to work, and when I finally DID get to work the phone was ringing off the hook and every client was wanting every single thing done right that instant! I swear, if I didn’t know any better, I would have thought that I was stuck in some ‘Groundhog Day’ parallel Hell where every day was Monday all over again.
In short, I had a REALLY lousy day.
Apparently, one of my coworkers had picked up on this and without a word, walked up to my desk, gingerly laid down a chocolate bar, and slowly backed away. I looked at it, turned to him and before I could snap off a terse “What is THIS for?”, he said, “I live in a household with four women … and you looked like you needed one of these about now.” He smiled and walked away. I stared at the sweet confection for a moment, then proceeded to tear into it like a ravenous five-year-old opening presents on Christmas morning.
OK, so now I feel a little better … but today still sucked (for the most part).

Hey Nicki. Pricless!

Nicki, Monday comes only once each week, but any day can be stressful. Just try to bear in mind that EVERY NEW DAY gives us an opportunity to start anew. So try to not live in the stressful past. Instead, look forward to each new day possibly being better than the last. I hope today is a better day for you. And always remember that God loves you.

Sorry to hear about your bad day but I can relate. I get to feel my wife’s wrath every month that special time comes around. The smallest thing makes the whole day go wrong.
I sure wish I could give her a candy bar to turn her mood around. I would stock pile them for each and every month.

You poor thing! I don’t crave chocolate often at all, but I definitely have to have it while pms-ing! Hope your day got much better!

What a sweet gesture!
