Bad Luck Day(s)

I am not feeling sorry for myself, but I do want to make a list of crappy things that have happened to me lately. Maybe I need someone to feel sorry for me?! I bet everyone has days like this. Although I really included two days because there wasn't enough crap in one day. I'm all better now and am really looking forward to Brian's visit and our family party. While you're reading these, be sure to feel sorry for me.

1. I ordered a roast beef sandwich with lettuce, mayo, onion. I was handed a DRY, hard bun with no onion and no tomato with sub sauce. (I mentioned mayo 4 times when I ordered.) Made them give me a refund.

2. After working so long and hard my blood sugar got low, I ate a high carb snack and got really sleepy. I no sooner laid down to take a short nap (I can sleep even five minutes and wake up raring to go) some lady came and rang the doorbell. I waited for her to go away. I was almost asleep! And then she rang again. Then beat on the door. Then rang one more time and knocked one more time. Good thing she left because I was ready to go ring her bell a time or two. Come to find out it was a politician handing out handbills. Well, I was so pissed I got adrenalin running through my system and couldn't sleep after that.

3. I had to clean the gutters that run across the front of our house. They sag in the middle and the debris that falls of our roof mixes with rain water and decomposes in the gutters, making a smelly muck that I am sure is full of disease-carrying bacteria or something. I was worried about the ladder sliding across the concrete driveway when I climbed, so I pulled the van up to put the base of the ladder against. When I went to move the ladder, it fell backwards and broke my flippin' windshield! Well, it didn't actually break, but the crack goes from top to bottom directly in front of where my eyes will be looking next time I drive. Wah! And then I stepped in some of the slop that spilled on the driveway, I had sandals on and it went between my flippin' toes. EUUUUUUUUUUU!!!

4. The drain in the shower backed up. I had to bail out grey foamy water until Fritz could get home and fix it. Next day, I did a couple rugs in the washer and the sink it drains into backed up! Now you can feel sorry for Fritz because he went down there and fixed that!

5. I walked into the garage using the back door and our 5 cd changer, which someone had precariously balanced on a narrow tv top, got jiggled just enough to go crashing to the floor, and you could hear the parts inside being thrown around. Okay, it wasn't working, but we were going to get it fixed!

6. I know there is more, but I am tired and am going to go to bed. Tomorrow, if I have time, a couple pics of the shortie on her moving day.....oh, and I still thank God for every day because there are usually far more blessings than curses. But I like to bitch, I've noticed. Wonder if that is old age or something.
