What a day. I don't even know how to express how today's outing went. Each one of these things is supposed to be nice and something to look forward to. I want these things to create nice memories. I don't feel like today's adventure went like that. It started out so far from my desire.
First of all...
I don't like people telling me how to raise my children.
Plain and simple. Especially not strangers.
I don't handle unsolicited advice very well.
I don't want to go into all the gory details... but I yelled at a woman in the store today. TWICE!
I could have just said something smart to her, and made her be the one who was embarrassed. I mean she was over stepping, butting in where she didn't belong, making the situation worse than it was and being rude. Instead, I was rude back and I embarrassed myself.
Adding to my embarrassment... I ran into a friend from church, right after yelling at the woman.
I ended up leaving the store without even looking at jeans.
After a break, in the food court, I returned to the store. Dug in and found a great pair of jeans at a pretty good price. And although it wasn't the way I was imagining my adventure going. It was a success. I guess that is how I have to look at my days right now, they might not go the way I wish they would... but as long as I am making some progress it is a success.
