Today started out innocently enough.
Woke up a lil later than expected.
Showered.
Discovered there was a boot on my car.
BAM! There it is. No matter how positive I tried to be between yesterday and today, sometimes you can't fight everything.
I freaked out - after all, what's not to freak out about? There is a BOOT on my CAR - I can't move it and I have to pay money to take it off - oh, and I think I forgot to mention that this was all because I had three outstanding parking tickets - which results in a headache when it's all said and done. In essence, I didn't pay my parking tickets, so I paid for it with a boot, $150, and a headache.
Lesson learned: pay parking tickets on time. Better yet - don't get them. Check and check.
However, in this, I had to suck it up and take care of the situation at hand. I had to stop my tears, read the instructions on the bright orange sticker left on my car. I took care of everything within a half an hour, and within two hours, I was able to just try to laugh it off (maybe I was just scoffing at my frustration with the NB Parking Authority) to get past it.
This is my attitude, this is who I am now. I'm still working on it, but the true essence of my being is just that: When I am challenged with something that seems so sudden or maybe a little scary, I freak out for a minute. But then I get my bearings and just deal with it. I'm trying every day to take challenges and make them accomplishments. I'm also trying to create challenges by setting goals and achieving this...
