Don't give up on bad days!

Dear readers,

I'm sure you all know those days, which just don't start right! It's like the whole world (or at least a huge part of it) is against you, and you don't know why, for you just woke up from a good night's sleep and were actually ready to start your day right... but it didn't work out.

There were two of such days for me this month!

The first day (actually it took four days, but it was only kind of Murphys-Law-ish on the last of the four days...) was, when my cellphone suddenly stopped working.
I couldn't call, be called, text or go online anymore, and I didn't know what happened!
I turned on flight mode, and put it back to normal and everything, but nothing happened.

Then I went to buy a new sim card, for I was so upset with the situation, and I was ready to cancel my contract with my mobile provider and the moment I took out my "old" sim card, I decided to push it back in one last time... and TADA: It suddenly all went back to normal, and I even had five bars!
So I was like: What just happened? And I already bought the new sim card!

I then wrote my friend about the incident, and she told me, something similar happened to her mom, and they were able to return the sim card... so I went back to the shop (it was just half an hour after I bought the card..) and they really gave me my money back!

This made me so happy, for it was a complete turnaround for my not so nice day!

Another day like that is today!
I'm up since (only) three hours, and I was ready to start my day happy and well rested with a nice shower...
Standing in the shower I noticed: Well, there is no hot water coming out of the shower head, and I thought it might kick in once I was showering for a longer time... but it didn't.
However, I cannot just go outside unwashed, so I really pulled it together and took a really icy shower. It was so cold I even forgot to use conditioner, for my head really hurt from the icy water.

Then I noticed: My heater doesn't work either!
So I was basically shivering once I stepped outside the shower and I didn't know what to do.

Every once in a while I checked the taps to see if there was any hot water, and suddenly it got at least lukewarm (which felt pretty "hot" to me after the icy experience...). I then decided to eat my breakfast first and drink some hot tea to warm up, before I call the property management to see what is going on here.

After my breakfast I again checked the taps and suddenly there was really hot water coming out of all of them. I then brought out my trash and saw the car of the property management driving out of our yard so I ran back in and suddenly: TADA my heaters were back to heating my place up!!

What I learned is: Don't be mad about a day which seems to go all wrong, for there is always a big chance it can turn around to be a good day in the end!
And if we didn't have such days, when we don't know what to do or why everything seems to go wrong, then we couldn't appreciate the good days as much!

Don't give up on a bad day, for it might just turn out to be a good day that overslept!
