I was amused and impressed yesterday by a friend's ability to turn situations into Germanic sounding compound nouns. On saying she could make a career from it she asked me to give her another. And so I requested "can I have a word for the uplifting feeling I get when after a very challenging day I see a sleeping child with dog also fast asleep on same pillow?" and her response is today's title :)
If I was to have to repeat a day, I would very much hope it wasn't yesterday. To be fair I think the point of "groundhog day" is in the learning to react differently and whilst I'd rather things weren't so challenging at times, I think I did well enough albeit not perfectly, in my responding. Not all was as bad as it could have been, so the scarf lost on the night hike was found thanks to kind friends helping to search. And my foot injured when a stool was dropped on it doesn't seem to be broken. But it was definitely a day of scrabbling round looking for the positives. There is something about sleeping cute kids and animals that is restorative and I shall carry the image in my head today as it makes me smile.
And today, today is a new day :D
