Some days are just bad on their own

There are some days that just get bad and worse and despite one’s efforts to check or improve on performance. For instance there’s a day I woke up to find two of my chicks dead and a couple others injured, vividly from being trampled upon by larger ones while entering their respective coops the previous evening. Getting to the farm, I found out that one of my avocado trees had been attacked by mistletoe. A closer examination of my tomatoes told me too clearly that they had been visited by pests. I went on working on the farm despite the series of discouragements but was suddenly forced to stop when, while removing a pile of maize stalk, I nearly held a rattle snake, which of course scared me to my nerves by the way it looked and the noise it made. I decided it was time I took a bath and leave for my cyber shop. Then I remembered I hadn’t fed the chicken. Heading to where I kept their feed, I was startled to find the feed sack open on the side and almost half the feed scatted on the floor. I later concluded some mice must have been responsible. I cleared the mess, had everything corrected then went ahead to feed my birds. The process took some reasonable time. Soon I went the borehole to get some water but alas! The bucket rope broke and I was left with no option but get stream water about two miles away! I prepared and left for my business place. As I just switched on the computer, there came a sudden outage. At first I thought my prepay tokens were over but when I looked at neighbouring shops, I confirmed that it was in deed a regional blackout. It took about three hours to resume. By then, many of my clients had come to my cyber and gone away disappointed. I decided to ignore the day’s things that had happened just badly on their own. Have you ever had such a day? How did you handle it?
