Lemons
Just when you think OK with your life for a nano second things just have a way of sucking and the two baby steps you took ten days ago don't compare to the one giant step something out of the blue kicked you back.
I was just sitting thinking about how smooth things had been going for the past few days. Then the phone rang. The conversation went from pleasant to if I don't hang up now it won't be good for my blood pressure. I don't like to be called names and one name I really don't like to be called is liar. So, I was upset and expressed my opinion to the one who was calling me names. For a split second I thought I was transported back to high school or maybe grammer school. I couldn't believe my ears.
I didn't say anything for a while to anyone. I just sat in my chair trying to control the steam I knew was coming out my ears like in the cartoons. After the steam finished coming out of my ears and my complexion changed back to normal I did the only thing I could. I tried to make lemonade out of rotten lemons. It won't be easy but nothing, and I do mean nothing, ever is.
