I'm finding this month to be draining. Sitting down each morning to come up with something to whine about is making me realize how many little things tick me off. So to balance this off, I'm going to try to sneak in something I'm grateful for, too. I know it's cheating, but otherwise I'm starting to feel like I start the day off on the wrong foot.

Rudy - He's asleep on the chair across from me. He is a complete knuckle-head, but he is just the knuckle-head we needed after Howie died. He didn't care how sad we were - he is determined to walk around with that goofy, happy-dog look all day, every day. I don't think he cares about Trump at all.

Awww... and I kind of feel the same way (not about Rudy--although I'm sure I would if I ever met him--but about the whining). In fact, I was about to write something upbeat about the red poppies in my front garden. Dang, someone always beats me to it! Whine whine...
ReplyDeleteI write mine in chunks and post-date them--I'm actually already done with the month of whining.
ReplyDeleteI do this too, although today was the first not-already-written day, and luckily (ha!) there is plenty of crisis. Need to write most of the rest.
DeleteI was thinking about the same thing this morning. I am worried that I'll continue to look for things to whine about after this month is over. Except for the obvious Trump related things, I am pretty much over-the-top delighted with life this month so it is difficult to be negative.
ReplyDeleteI had hoped we'd be negative earlier, before the weather got nice.
DeleteThe whining is the one month I haven't written things in advance. So it's a daily chore! Whine, whine ... lol
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll find a way to get through the rest of the month by whining a little about glorious things. You know, being the nagging little conscience that says "This can't last." And I love knuckle-headed dogs!
ReplyDeleteA Trump-oblivious dog is just what I need.
