Good day or bad day?

I woke up yesterday morning in a bad mood. I wasn't looking forward to going to work and I just felt the day was going to be busy and hectic and I just wanted to roll over and go back to sleep. Then in my half sleep daze I looked outside and through the blinds I could see that the sky was a clear blue. I had a sudden thought "why don't I just have a good day?" And so I did. It was such a brief moment but in that moment my mood swung from one extreme to another and I did in fact have a fantastic day. I was busy at work so time flew. My yoga class last night was pretty good, I had some positive feedback. Then dinner at Chris and Mel's with Jeremy and Laura and home to bed around midnight.

When we got home I checked my email and I had a fantastic reply from my yoga teacher. I had emailed her with some questions regarding a workshop this summer and about my classes and the difficulties I was having and she had such good advice and some really great suggestions of things to try. I'm really looking forward to my class on Monday now to give it a go. She was very supportive and encouraging and it was so nice to hear (or read I guess).

This morning we were up early to bring the scooter to the repair shop in North Vancouver. It is damn cold out, I still have a chill 2 hours later. We booked a car and Luke followed me and picked me up. On our way home we stopped on Commercial Drive and got some produce (and Italian Arborio rice to make risotto). Then over to 4th Ave where we stopped at Ming Wo and I picked up a few little things and then to the butcher where I got everything I needed for dinner tonight - beef tenderloins, prosciutto, cambozola and brie. Get ready for saltimbocas! I'm going to make gnocchi too.... It's not even 11am yet and I'm excited to get started making dinner. :) I need to find something chocolatey to make for dessert too... yum.

No other plans today. At some point we'll here about the scooter, they were hoping to have it finished by the end of the day. My headlights were both burned out, they only have 1 replacement though. My front brakes were metal on metal, my right mirror swings in when I drive and my battery was dying so my signal change lights would turn off when I was stopped at a light. Pretty sketchy driving it! I only really ever drive the 13 blocks to work and the 13 blocks home so it just didn't feel that urgent, but I'll feel so much better when it's fixed up.

I'm supposed to meet up with some girls tonight for a coworker's stagette at 9:30 at a club downtown. I haven't decided yet if I'll go... it's so expensive and although I do really enjoy dancing, clubs aren't really my scene. :)

I thought about what you said about deciding to have a good day when I was waking up this morning. It worked, even though it's not sunny :)
