Chapter 6 - Say goodbye to Little Miss grumpy boots’

We often reinforce old patterns of behavior in our loved ones without even recognizing it. If you think your partners will come home grumpy, not kiss you hello and bark at you about the crap day he has had then chances are it will be a self-fulfilling prophecy. You won’t be a modern housewife; you’ll be Beryl the bore who slowly turns into nagging Nora.
 
Like bunny boilers, grumpy people are about as fun to be around as rotting fruit. No one likes a grump, and that should be motivation enough to remove those grumpy boots. If you are in a bad mood don’t run straight to the nearest friend and download your problems because as much as they say they don’t mind they’re actually having a whine about you having a whine the minute they find someone to whine too. Potentially you could be responsible for the start of one vicious circle of whining.
 
Before you decide to be the ‘Nucleus Grumpuss bootsus’, buck up and be happy. This may seem like a tough ask when you’ve woken up with bad hair and a pimple but just remember no one cares and no one wants to hear about it. You need to think positively and not dwell on the negative. Wear your happy high heals rather than your frumpy grumpy boots. Fashion, like emotions, come and go. You may not like the long boots over jeans look, although it’s very now, it will be so yesterday in a minute. A grumpy mood can be so ten minutes ago if you are relaxed about fashion.
 
If the bad mood is lingering like the breath of a halitosis sufferer you need to consider taking some drastic steps to get rid of the bad energy and inject some new positively. Day spas are a great way to exercise the darkness from your day. They can be expensive and your partners credit card is a must have for this excursion. You may have to be creative in what you refer to the day spa as in obtaining the plastic, however I have found hybrids of spa names such as ‘Garden of Eden’ Physio, ‘The Temple’ of Back Pain and Chiro are effective in throwing him off the scent of where you really are. The name will appear on his statement just minus the physio or Chiro bit meaning you haven’t entirely fibbed, you have just edited the truth.
 
Going off to a spa for the day may not be a community minded or selfless task but it is contributing to home harmony and therefore quite giving on your behalf. You will stop whining to your friends and your partner will be happy to see you at the end of the day making you a winner.
 
Moral
 
Positive Energy is community minded and grumpyness is so last season.
