Bad Day

I had a bad day yesterday. I think all of the junk I have been dealing with just kind of hit me and the unemployment thing was overwhelming.

I got my first check for 2 weeks and it is not as much as I was hoping for and I will have to dip into savings to help pay some bills.

Anyway, later on that night I went and got some flowers for inside the house (and mums and tulip bulbs which I planted this morning-Steph you would be proud and thanks for the tips).

I chose some Gerber Daisies in bright Yellow, Red and Orange and when I got home and cut them and put them in the vase my mood lifted a little. The same happened when I woke up and saw them on the kitchen table.

Isn't it interesting how something so minor can bring happiness? I don't know if this is just a girl thing (or maybe just a me thing), but seeing those flowers was like seeing some rays of hope. Now, I know they won't help me get a job or pay the bills or find true love. But they help point me to the one who can. Maybe, just maybe, God knew what he was doing when he made the bright flowers that grace our fields, flower beds and vases. Maybe He put them there to help us in moments like these.
