Had a pour go so smooth last Thursday I almost felt guilty

We did a 40 yard driveway in Lincoln and everything just lined up - mix was perfect, the weather held at 72 degrees, and the crew had the finish done 20 minutes ahead of schedule. Has anyone else had a job where literally nothing went wrong and you kept waiting for the other shoe to drop?

I swear it's like the universe knows when you're having a good day and just lets you have it, but then the next week you can't get a single thing to cooperate. Makes you wonder if there's some cosmic balancing act going on lol.

Just gotta ride the wave and save your energy for the rough patches.

Oh for REAL. I've learned that the HARD way. When things are going smooth I try to use that time to get ahead on stuff like meal prepping or setting up my calendar so when the inevitable crash comes I'm not scrambling. Like last month I had three good days in a row and I made sure to do my laundry and pay all my bills early. Then sure enough the next week my car broke down and I got sick and I didn't have to worry about that stuff. It's all about using that calm before the storm to stack the deck in your favor so you're not drowning when everything hits the fan.
