  It’s OK to have a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day

  I had the worst couple of days last week — absolute garbage. It was one of those weeks where life piled on with a bunch of things. Big things, small things. Smaller than small things. Things that wouldn’t bother me if they were simply just a one-off. You know what I’m talking about. Those days where nothing seems to go right and no matter how hard you try, the day, your outlook, and everything around you just gets more sour. We’ve all been there. There’s a book I read to my daughter that I read as a kid. It’s called Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day by Judith Viorst If you haven’t read it, you should. It’s a classic. I think about and reference this book often when one of us is having a bad day.
