Grasping at Straws Gratitudes

grasping at straws

So my life sucks. I have gotten bug bites every night since I got home from Europe and after a thorough search and buying a mattress cover, 1 lousy little bed bug showed it's ugly red head on Tuesday. After speaking with the exterminator today and hearing news of the prep for Sunday's visit, I had a little melt down. Lots of stuff comes up during melt downs, and there's nothing that brings some clarity than rock bottom. As I look at my gratitudes I am grasping at straws. I do need a little perspective, so while my life can certainly use some improvement, I need to be positive and start to make some changes. So, listen up universe for here we go.
