Happiness Is…..

When I was drinking I was always tired.

Irritable.

Not that that has changed the irritability my lack of drinking so I have determined that it is a general irritation with the world at large.

People have becoming ruder and ruder as we remain in this unusual time period.

I keep hoping for change but alas…..

However that is not what this post is about.

A wee bit about drinking but not about Covid.

Drinking=hung over/ickiness

Now…..

My customer this week had asked for green bananas.

And last week I kind of failed in that I had no green bananas so I found the least yellow but still.

I understand they need to last a week.

As I was stood in front of the display of bananas cringing because not a green one was in sight and the ones I had seen in the back were only slightly less yellow I thought to myself ‘Jay just go to the back and look. Maybe you missed something.’

I suppose you are wondering how it is that I could miss green bananas?

Boxes and boxes.

And I cannot lift those boxes to get at the ones below.

When I went to the back one of the produce guys had just dismantled the boxes thus providing me with…..green bananas.

When he took the box top I chortled in glee.

As I walked to the front of the store I realized how happy I was because I could fulfill my customer’s order totally.

And that is what my story is about.

Me realizing how far I have come when I find great delight is something as simple as green bananas.
