:)

This morning just wasn't my morning. I was really exhausted and down when i woke up. It didn't help that it was rainy and windy so my little umbrella kept blowing wrong side out during the walk to work. I almost pulled a Mary Poppins. I vented to David about my woes when I got to work this morning. Things started looking up by lunch time. I made lots of progress on putting my presentation together and a morning cappuccino did a lot to remedy my sleepiness. I was only one of 3 people in the office during lunch today. I didn't feel like spending money, so I opted to stay and eat my peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Someone rang the doorbell to the office and since I was closest and there weren't many people in there, I answered the door. This was the first time I have ever answered the door. (I'm a little timid because I'm afraid I won't be able to understand whoever is at the door). It was a delivery guy with a long silver box and said he was looking for Jennifer. I said "that's me" but apparently I looked really confused, because he pointed out the sticker on the box that identified it was from a flower delivery company. I immediately knew what it was and a huge smile spread across my face. It was a beautiful rose from David to brighten my day! This isn't the first time this has happened. My first week here, a guy came to deliver flowers exactly 2 minutes before I was about to give a presentation. Both times, the other ladies in the office have "oohed" and "ahed" over the flowers and have said things like "Wow, Jennifer, you got yourself a good man." I just stand there beaming and say "I know"
