Noah's Ark...well...not really...

So, this morning I went in the bathroom to take a shower. I used the toilet and began brushing my teeth when I heard water coming from the toilet. At first I thought I was hearing wrong, and then I looked down. It was a miniature flood! Obviously not a big deal, as it was cleaned up with about 4 towels. But the dialogue that I heard from my parents was GREAT.

I called Mom in because I wasn't sure what towels she would like to use for the mess, and of course Dad came in to check out the water. I stated, "I'm sorry." To which my Dad replied with some sort of comment like: It's no big deal. I did it last week. That's just what toilets do sometimes.

It made me stop and think. I know A LOT of people who would've made a BIG production out of it. Meanwhile, Dad was right...that's just something that happens from time to time.

Life goes on.

Not a huge revelation or anything.

But, it was fun to be reminded to keep the little stuff the little stuff. Life is too short to worry about the little stuff.

Later!
