Life is Wonderful But Sometimes It Sucks...


Yesterday I woke up in a really bad mood, I had a lot of pain during the night in my chest and woke up with an ugly headache. And of course it was a day that Adrian and I had a lot to do starting with a lot of shopping. While I was grumpily maneuvering the cart around Walmart Adrian told me that I was being a grouch and needed to stop it. He gave me this whole spiel about how life is wonderful and I should be thankful for a new day and yadah, yadah... everyday is a new chance to do something great he said. But yesterday sucked, and so did today. 

I'm not the nicest of people on a regular day, but when life decides to give you so many freakin lemons in one day then what am I supposed to do? It's hard to be all peppy and happy when you miss an important call in the morning thanks to awful Sprint service, then in the middle of the errands my car decides to start making a very strange noise. By the time the very long day was over at about midnight, I was ready to just about hurl. A restless night later I wake up to find that yes my car had now died and that it is NOT the battery as we had hoped, oh no that would have been to cheap, it's going to be something a lot more expensive to fix. Of course. 

There are so many things in my life that are so out of my control at the moment, things that are pretty serious. What I want to know is why life always has to be so darn hard. 

Argh, I know I should be thankful for the many good things in our life and I am. But I can't help but to wish that for once things would go smoother for my family. I know that things will never be perfect, life is just not that way. But how about a little break for me and my kids...just some time to catch our breath would be absolutely amazing.
