Life is annoying sometimes!

Life is annoying sometimes! When is the last time, you can remember when things went your way. It seems like every day is a battle of some kind. Some bill, neighbor, relative is always on the attack.

I spend a good deal of my day trying to straighten out the last mess when a new one appears on the horizon.

Don't get me wrong, the few moments in life that are good make it all worth while. Here's one: My three year twin grandson told me I had to go home and take care of my puppy, yesterday, but then they said, "But don't leave me."

I guess that's as good as it gets! : }

That is definitely as good as it gets! But, I know what you mean. Some days, I just don't even want to be around people!

I especially don't want to look at the bank.

Carol, this might sound strang to you, but each time I pay a bill, I give thanks to God for blessing me to be able to pay it. It is my conviction that this attitude has helped me not to be deliquent for the past twenty years. I believe if we are willing to spend our energy on overcoming our set-backs, we can overcome anything. Now, I know that is big talk, but I believe it. Most of the time when folk upset me, and sometimes they do, i back up, examine myself, seek ways to deal with it, and my God has never failed me yet....My greatest desire in life above all things is to be known as a peacemaker. Life has taught me to think and pursue this avenue... it brings peace and I love it. By the way, this is real because one day I became tired of being a nervous wreck whose blood pressure was sky high, and hair began to fall rapidly.

Thanks so much, Rosa. It's good to have friends who remind us of what is really important.

I know the feeling. Since Jan. of this year, when we first got my dad's cancer diagnosis, things have gone from bad to worse. Big things, like his cancer and passing, and my hours and pay getting cut at work, to small things, like one of my dresser's drawers falling apart, or a pair of jeans ripping on me, things just keep piling and pilling and piling up and I just want to find a rock to hide under and pretend I don't exist for a while.

A rock to hide under would be nice.

With a family as big as mine it seems there is always a brush fire to put out. I have a lot of sleepless nights having mental arguments and such. Guess that's life.

Ditto, Nancy.

Sounds to me like things are going pretty well.

My life has always been a mess. But, it's when my kids grin at me that I think, It hasn't been such a bad day after all

Just about nothing goes my way these days. I can't remember the last time things went my way.
