    Grinds my gears when I worked so hard all week and didn't lose weight - I blame the sodium of my giant Chipotle burrito last night (I was over my calories slightly but not enough to NOT lose even one pound.) GRRR!

    Makes my day when I get a cute little old lady customer who just says the nicest things. :happy:

    GmG: People who come into their office and take care of personal hygiene and sinus issues without bothering to close their door.
    MmD Honestly, hearing that your little brother made you a cd "just because" that is so sweet

    Grinds my Gears:
    Neighbor who complained about having to work instead of being grateful for the opportunity.

    Made my Day:
    Coming home from a morning workout with only 15 or so minutes to get ready for work, to discover that my husband made an iced coffee for me and stuck it in the fridge before he left for work with a little post it note that read "Nom Nom Nom"

    GmG: my old bank. Holy crap, they continue to be inept. And I can't seem to get away from them.
    MmD: my new bank. Dave, specifically, the CSR with the Mr. Movie-phone voice, who helped me solve the problem created by my old bank.

    GmG: Not being able to walk upstairs because it hurts my knee
    MmD: Getting up 40 minutes earlier than I usually do, to work out (Never thought that would happen in a million years)

    GmG: people who spend two days trying to get people to fix a mistake, when they could have done it in 30 fricking seconds.
    MmD: went down a size, yesterday.

    GmG: Hubby calling and asking if we need anything, while he's on his way home. "We need dish soap." And then he whines that he doesn't want to stop and get anything.

    IF YOU DON"T WANT TO STOP, DON'T ASK!

    MmD: My nail tech kicks *kitten*.

    GmG: My son's new habit of biting when he's angry. His big sister now has a mouth-shaped bruise on her arm. Ugh.

    MmD: I got to take a walk by myself for half an hour. Found some cool photoshoot locations for the future. :)

    GmG: People who consider me 'the help' because I'm the administrative assistant.

    MmD: a lovely email.

    GmG: my 4.5-year-old daughter is already having body image issues and comparing herself to others. She cried for 20 minutes today because she's not tall like her best friend. Why can't these awful thoughts just stay away from my baby girl?

    MmD: I had a wonderful time this morning with my mom friends. I'm finally feeling like I can let my guard down around them.

    GmG:
    The fact that in order for me be a stay at home mom my husband is gone from the house from 4 am to 530- 6 pm.

    Made my day:
    Listen to my three old tell her daddy the names of the letters, and point them out. She is so smart :)

    I'm resurrecting a thread.

    So:

    GmG: The *kitten* client who came in today to scream at me and my boss about losing a loonie in one of our machines. I reimbursed the loonie without a blink, but the attitude was awful. WHY do people think it's okay to scream and yell and stomp like children, when they're in their mid-damn-forties?!?

    MmD: I am resisting the urge to buy fudge.

    What is a loonie? I like this thread it reminds my of my friends Mom who always says "Now say something nice".

    GmG: Waking up with back pain & a headache.

    MmD: My employees said they were glad to see me & meant it.

    Grinds My Gears: Very slow day, no phone calls, no paperwork to be done at work. But since I'm the only Receptionist and Junior Accountant in today I have to stay. :yawn:

    Made my Day: The boyfriend has been texting me all day keeping me company while I'm bored out of my mind. :flowerforyou:

    A loonie is a slang term for the Canadian Dollar coin.

    GMG - My sugars crashing when I'm half a mile from the end of my walk

    MMD - Completing said walk!

    GmG: Meeting the new admin assistant today...the position I applied for after having been laid off for a year.
    The position that I suggested he fill. The one he suggested I would get. Oh and now I have to train her.


    Made My Day: Getting the support from other co workers who felt that I deserved the job. She's not very bright. Karma is a Bit$h.

    Irritated me- I came home to find a giant pile of wood in my living room

    Made my day- Discovered my kitten likes to have her nose rubbed (so cute!) Also my dogs greeting me at the door always make my day.
