![]() I planned to go into the office Sunday afternoon to get ahead on some of my work. Before I tell the story, I want to let everyone know that I am a true blonde, and over the years, some of the harmless blonde jokes I've heard have come to fruition. Since moving to Holly Springs, Coffee at Holly is one of my favorite places to frequent because it's an excellent place to meet new people in town.Īfter two good days, Sunday afternoon came down like a hammer. It feels like a nice escape from the work rush and is definitely a feel-good spot. The Coffee Shop is one of my favorite places to take a break. ![]() The owner's Marc and Marie, are so welcoming and enjoyable to be around. At lunch, I went to Coffee at Holly in downtown Holly Springs and enjoyed a delicious ham and cheese sandwich with a hot chai vanilla tea. ![]() The Tire Center replaced my plugged tire with a new one on Saturday morning as I did some work at the office. After a week of ups and downs, I was glad to see a positive win for Marshall Academy. The Patriots took the win with a final score of 54-46. From that point on, the Patriots did not let the Colts gain any momentum. The Patriots scored 19 points to Lee Academy's six in the third quarter. At half-time, the score was Lee Academy 23 and Marshall 21. I enjoy watching basketball and love taking photos of the games even more. I went to the Marshall Academy basketball game against Lee Academy.

Although I was disappointed about canceling my appointment that day, I was thankful my hairdresser was doing well and realized things could be much worse. As soon as I got my hopes up for a better turn in my day, I received a call from my hairdresser. If I hadn't noticed my tire was flat, it would have been even worse if I had driven on it.Īs the work day continued smoothly, I started to gather my things together to leave for my hair appointment. I felt like I was having such bad luck, but I also knew that sitting in my self-pity for too long would get me nowhere. The object that flattened my tire was lodged into the side of it, which meant I would have to buy a brand-new tire. That was until the Tire Center called to inform me that my tire had a bigger issue than I realized. After getting into the groove at work, I was starting to see the upside to my recent misfortunes. It was probably good for me to get some fresh air anyway. My morning was looking up until I remembered I had to walk to work! Thankfully, I was blessed with a beautiful morning and enjoyed the walk. So, I took some cold medicine, and it brought some relief. I knew I had a full schedule ahead with work tasks, and I also had a hair salon appointment scheduled, too. I hardly have headaches, but my headache was so bad it actually woke me up that morning. The following morning I woke up with the worst headache. It was already after 5 p.m., and I knew it would be almost impossible to find someone to fix it. All was going according to plan, but as I was heading to my car to leave work, I noticed my back tire was flat as a pancake. The beginning of the week started as it typically does with work deadlines and getting the newspaper to press. But, as Zig Ziglar once said, “Happiness is the ability to move forward knowing the future will be better than the past.” Even though my first week of the year started with many unexpected events, I still have high hopes for the year. This week has been a whirlwind, and it's often felt like one thing after another has gone wrong. Surprises come in many shapes and forms – happy, sad, exciting, and grand. Life is full of surprises, and I have had many this past week.
