Bad day to Good Day

Well had a rubbish day.

1) Cheque I was given to for work last week bounced (£65)
2) Car was going to cost £74 now going to cost £114 as I had to have airconditioning pipes out to replace a headlamp and they had to replace some of them due to corrosion and knackered seals.
3) Customer cancelled appointment for toinight as he is broke until end of month.

But

1) Customer who gave me bounced cheque had paid me cash
2) Part time work called to offer me 5 extra hours tonight.
3) Customer called and rebooked for next week.
4) Mate wants me to help him do a garden clearance tomorrow as I have a van. £45 in my pocket plus he will give me a tank of fuel.

So when things do go bad , smile and think that a good thing is due. Oh , and i won £10 on each of my two lottery lines last night.

You guys do realise that you can MAKE yourself lucky? You can teach yourself how to be lucky like you can teach yourself to ride a bike. It's just another skill.
