Nothing Seems to go Right

Have you ever had one of those days when everything seemed to go wrong? First I went to the bank today. There was a error in my account. Much less in there than there should be. I finally got that figured out. I had to go to the store. The lady in front of me was paying with a card that wasn't working. It took her almost a half hour to get it to work. She was short $5.00 but she used a gift card so it wouldn't take anything off. I ended up giving here the $5.00. You never know, when you are going to have that problem.
Have you ever had a day when nothing seemed to go right?

Now, that I am home, it really wasn't that bad. Worse things could have happened.

I have had plenty of those days! I hope yours gets much better. That was really nice of you to give her the $5, maybe even though your day wasn't great you made her day perfect. You never know.

lol It seems to happen with regularity. But at the end, it works out that I have more good days than crazy ones.

I don't remember if I have ever encounter such day, I always think there must be something beautiful happens everyday. It's so kind of you to help the lady with $5, I guess she was really relieved with your help. That's a beautiful thing happened because of you.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a more beautiful day for you.

I had this last Thursday. It started Wednesday when my wife had neck surgery. Thursday morning I left the hospital to go to work. On my way to work I missed my exit so I had to take the slow route to work.
The day went by slow and I left at 3 to get my wife at the Hospital. On the way I stopped at Sonic to get a burger and fries. Even though I specifically said fries they gave me tater tots and I didn't notice till I was gone. I needed to get on the toll road to drive about 2 miles south to get to the hospital. I go down a road and turn on the frontage road and get stuck where they are doing construction. It literally took me 20 minutes to move about 1000 feet. Then a wreck happened literally at the entrance to the highway just as I got through the construction. So I drove the frontage road the entire way.
We go and drop off her prescriptions at the store and go home. They tell us they will be ready in 2 hours(7:00 p.m.) I show up at 7:30p.m. and I wait in drive thru line for 15 minutes and they tell me, they were out of one of the pills. Why can't they call and tell you they can't fill the order? So I ask them to call another one of there stores and transfer the order because we NEED this pill. They tell me to circle the building and wait in line again while they call. I wait in line another 10 minutes. When I get back the guy tells me, he hasn't had time to call yet and I have circle around and wait in line AGAIN. I am pissed by the point and peel out of the parking lot. I go home and tell my wife that I am calling to complain. We call and a woman answers and says that she just called another pharmacy for us and that they are filling it right now. It's 7 miles away and it will be ready by the time I get there. I drive there, wait in line for 5 minutes to be told its not ready yet and to park and come inside. I park and come inside and wait 15 more minutes in the waiting room.

I think there is no day in which everything goes wrong for anyone. All you have to do is to change your perspective of viewing a problem. In the case of lady you mentioned, her problem made you care about others which is a very great thing. See the positive side and we need people like you who helps the needful.

More than once. Some days just seem to not work out as planned. I do keep a fairly organized schedule. It's not written in stone, but I like to do certain things on certain days, whether it's cleaning the house or running errands or making appointments, but lately I have had to rearrange things more often than I want to, because I'm trying to help out my daughter who has added some extra activities to HER schedule and needs me to take care of her grandson on days that she can't. It's a long story but if I have him, I can't run errands, etc.
