It all started out yesterday morning when I broke my french press coffee pot. With no coffee in me, I knew it was going to be a bad day.
I had to paint my (3 car) garage, and there was no getting out of it. Luckily I own a decent paint sprayer (1 gal. every 3 min.) and it works pretty good. It's got a 50 foot hose so I just kept spraying across the front, around the corner, and down the side.
I was almost to the end of the side wall as I pulled a little more slack from the hose and heard the spray pump sucking air. I knew by that sound that I had overturned the sprayer and bucket of paint because I should still have about 1 1/2 gals. left. I ran for it, but still lost about a 1/2 gal. onto the grass.
So making a long story a little longer, I had to make a run to the paint store for more paint. I get there, pull into the parking lot, open the car door and there on the ground is a dollar bill looking at me saying "pick me up, please". So I obliged and then headed on in and got my paint.
I'm putting the paint in my trunk wondering if that lonesome dollar bill had any friends in the area, so I wet my index finger and hold it up to see which way the wind is blowing and start looking. Sure enough, 2 of his buddies were two cars down in the parking lot.
It made me feel a little better about how the day was going.

They may have fallen out as you opened the door?
