Just don't go

Ya know, I think it would be easier if we just stayed home all the time and sat out in the back yard and listened to the birds and the wind chimes........ahhhh.

But life just isn't so simple.

Going to get an oil change in your car is like going to the dentist. Why is that?

I don't like going to the dentist. First of all , it hurts. Second of all it hurts worse after I go than it did before I went! I go for a routine cleaning and come out with sore gums and an appointment for all the extra work they say I need done.
Well that is how it is with the car.

I go in for a routine oil change and waa-laa, they tell me my rear brakes are in need of replacing.
Now maybe some things I can put off till the last minute but the brakes! ?? I don't think so.
So now I need to figure out when I can go back to sit for an hour or so and get the brakes fixed and in the meantime grow a money tree to pay for this extra expense I didn't plan on.

And to add to this wonderful gifts of life that we are given our refrigerator/freezer has decided to leak water onto the floor. Seems that it thinks it needs to create a frozen lake at the bottom of the freezer which as the water runs down onto this frozen lake it slides over the ice and out the door onto the floor.
As of right now there is a dish towel on the bottom of the freezer which is soaking up the water so that it doesn't flood the floor until the repair man comes to our house tomorrow. Can't wait to see his expression when he see's this frozen towel!
And of course until he shows up I have no idea how much that is going to cost.

They say when it rains it pours..............well I live in sunny California and it's not suppose to rain here!
Not having much luck growing that money tree either!
