Shot down in May! As my good friend Frank reminds us: “That’s Life” !!!
But why is May lasting so long!!!! lol In order to appreciate the good things in life, you do have to experience the bad. And we have definitely had our share of bad, in the last couple of months. But, no worries!! The bad will not last forever!! That is not the cycle of life!! You got the Aprils and you got the Mays.
The goal of my blogging is to keep things light and fluffy. I really do not want to whine and complain about the negative things in my life, after all so many peeps these days, are stuck in May and dealing with lots worse than us! We really are blessed! We do have the best family ever! We have a beautiful home and I love my work (when I have it)!!
However, we all know that when it rains—does it not pour???? And yes, the water is still finding its way into our basement—but we are working on it!! Our Home Equity Loan is proof that we will not give up until we are dry or run out of borrowed money!! And some day, when I can laugh about it, I might just tell you the whole story!! And maybe I might even be able to laugh about the fact that our big screen HD TV died last night for no good reason!! But I am sure it is not because it needs the $200 bulb that we have already bought and paid for, in anticipation of the picture going out, since that does happen about every 8 months! Oh noooo–that would be way to easy! Instead I think it has something to do with the fan, which probably would cost us more than the TV is worth. But the good news is that I hear—Big Screen TV’s are much cheaper today than in the past! After all, ours is an older model—not even a flat screen! And we were planning on getting a new one some day, just not right now!
And I am not complaining about the new problem that has caused our stove to give off a “gastly smell over the last couple of days! After all, Taco bell is just down the street–YUM! And the water heater? Well, it has been making that load horrible noise for months now, and we have lived with it! But, the other day when I was downstairs and it kicked in—I wasn’t expecting the gas smell! That can’t be good!
But really, April is just around the corner, honest!
