Mr Grumpy

I was given this door hanger many moons ago - one side being Mr Happy and one side being Mr Grumpy.

I can't remember how it started, but it became part of piano lessons for a couple of young pupils, for a while, and if we finished a lesson where it was clear there was a need for amending of sinful ways over practising Mr Grumpy would be turned round to face outwards and hard work had to be put in for Mr Happy to reappear. 

It's been a few years since I've used it this way but I have been pretty grumpy for a few days and it suited my mood.... missing parcels, missing medication from the monthly repeat prescription, offers to do one small admin task turning into a much larger one, various little things just making me narky. 

Still, when I think about it calmly, there's lots of good as well and maybe I will turn Mr Grumpy round to Mr Happy again tomorrow.
