Flowers and Sunshine

It is amazing to me what flowers can do to your mood. I had one of "those days" this week where everything went wrong. On my way out to door to work I dropped a glass bottle filled with water on the tile kitchen floor. It exploded everywhere and took me 20 minutes to clean it up. I had to lock my kitties in the spare room because I was afraid they would find all the little glass pieces I missed. I hate to lock them in a room for a few hours when we have people over. The idea of them locked up for a whole day made me panic, but I had to get to work. When I finally made it to work (15 minutes late) I discovered that my computer had a virus. A virus so bad that I had to transfer all my files to another computer so that I could wipe out the infected computer. That took me until 2pm. Not exactly a productive work day. On my lunch break I left a frustrated message on Evan's voicemail, ate some Chic-fil-A and dragged myself back to the office. A few hours later, as I sat slumped in my chair, flowers were delivered to my desk. They were from Evan and instantly I felt better. I could not keep the smile off of my face for the rest of my day. I was surprised by the drastic change in my mood, but I couldn't help but to feel good. This was a very wise move on Evan's part. He could have called me back and listened to me complain about all the things wrong with my day, but instead he sent flowers. Genius.

Have a great weekend!

That's incredibly wise.
Yup, I think you should keep him.

By the way, I saw SweetP today at the park. She is SO teeny and so nice! She looks really great. I'll post photos on my blog on Monday.
