You know it’s going to be a bad day when…
…you leave the house and just as you step outside it pours down in buckets, soaking you and two toddlers to the core.
…you can’t find your car keys but your toddler son knows exactly where they are.
…you get to the car and realise that your husband has taken out one of the car seats.
…you get to the pathology unit and the phlebotomist knows you by your first name.
… as you leave some old guy looks at you with daggers and comments “Awww, the poor little girl, why’d ya have to do that to her?”
But then you know everything is going to be okay when you walk from the hospital with little hands clasping yours and an elderly lady comments…
“You’ve got the whole world in those hands of yours”.
Mmmmmmmawwwwwww.
I likes me a happy ending ;0)
aww I’m glad there was a happy end to your trip!
I groaned all the way through the first five.
What a fabulous ending, though.
Moments like that last one sure make it all worth while, don’t they?
(I think I’ve met that old guy before… he hangs out at every lab I’ve ever been to. *sigh*)
Oh my that is one of the nicest, most inspiring comments I have ever heard! So so sooooo much better than the ‘double trouble/ you have your hands full’ that I usually get!!
bad days always somehow come good again.
What a very wise woman! Seems to me she was an agel planted just for you sweet momma!
The whole world! I love that sentiment – very sweet. But what did that old geezer mean by his comment?
That silver lining came shining through in the end
What a sweet and wise woman!! So glad it ended on a better note than it started!!
You just have to remember the people like the old woman and forget the ones who are less than understanding and not so kind.
We just will ignore everything aside from the old lady.
Still, I bet you felt like holding down the guy and jabbing him with blunt needles. Or is that just me…
Boo, old man! Yay, old woman! What a lovely thing to say.
why did he take out one car seat??? I hate hate hate putting in car seats..
Yay for the old lady.. mmm I wonder if it was me in disguise (hehehehe)
cheers kim ..
Now that one works the exact opposite of my favorite business phrase: ‘It only takes one ‘Aw Shit!’ to wipe out a whole bunch of ‘Attaboys’.’ In this case, the good guys win. Yay!
Awww what a stunning old lady!! That must have made your week
As for the rest, sounds like my house most days.
what a beautiful comment from the lady ! One of the best I have heard.
What a wonderful thing for that lady to have said.
And what did that old man mean? What a geezer.
