Printing the wrong file. I felt sad and miserable when it happened, thinking I’d have to spend extra time at work to get it finished. Then I went back to my computer and realized that I’d printed the wrong file. What I thought could take over an hour ended up taking 15 minutes instead. Making a mistake is a bummer, but realizing what I’d done, understanding how much less work it’d be and feeling like a weight had just been lifted off my shoulders? Definitely grateful for that.

Getting out of work early. Not “playing hooky” early, just “I got here early, so I can leave early” early. I was planning to head straight into town for the epilepsy support group meeting, but I had enough time that I went home to take care of the dogs for about half an hour. And I’m sure their little doggy tummies and bladders were happy I did, too.

Having enough gas in the tank. Driving straight into town without having to stop for gas is good when I’m in a hurry. Because my time management skills are amazing.
