Day 3 Kill It With Kindness Challenge


 Day three starts off much the same as day two, however, this time the stealth Samurai warrior tissues have multiplied, the war-zone carnage has stretched long and far within the realms of my hay-fevery crib
(It is at this point that I am becoming concerned with my snotty night time antics).
 
I clumsily throw my left leg over the edge of the bed, my foot thuds onto the plush carpeted floor, this is followed by the second thud of my other sleepy hoof. Slowly I lift up my body as my drowsy torso slumps over my heavy legs for a moment...... Or four.

Not deterred, I straighten up and through itchy eyes, fumble my way towards the bathroom in search of eye drops, anti histamines all the while yearning for a non puffy reflection.... Not today...

Here we go!

Early.

School drop off.


Toot.

Work.

Music! Yes, music soothes me. I prop my phone up at my desk and select shuffle on my pre-selected "Sunday" playlist. The dulcet sounds of Damien Rice, Katie Noonan and Lucy Schwartz fill the air, my head and my disposition.

My mood is lifted, I feel a sense of organizational problem solving coming on! My day runs smoothly and quickly. Much to my bosses surprise (and delight) I buy him Japanese for lunch. "This tastes alright eh!" he exclaims blissfully between mouthfuls of Tori Don (I think he enjoyed it!).

I still have my swagger, however added to said stride is a ridiculous grin. During my lunch break I smile at strangers and am offered a discount when I pick up my lunch (and boss-man's). Happiness MUST be contagious!

Upon returning to work, offering boss-man his feast I choose to lovingly and kindly mop the showroom floor, not part of my job description, however, this is not an issue.

I arrive home for a spell to feed our fabulous furry family members (no, not the children!), I notice our newest family member Pippy (or as Noah calls her - "Bucket-Head") who has recently been de-sexed has an inflamed area around her stitches. A visit to her vet is in order. I wait ever so patiently as she didn't have an appointment and we are seen to by a delightfully obvious animal loving veterinarian, we have a chat I thank her ever so much for seeing Pippy on short notice. Luckily Pippy's issue was easily fixed (I won't go into details for those of you of the squeamish elk).

We are not charged for the visit! How kind!   

Home.

Weekly dinner date (or as we call it "Free food Wednesday!") at my future In-Laws house with the little humans and outstanding partner Cam.

Home.

Today I am an ever so happy 5 out of 6!
