bummer on all the ups and downs lately and bad storms. I love that y'all watched a movie on the iPad though during the storm :) What a great way to distract the kiddos! Must remember this one.
when you can make the bad into an opportunity for good that's great!
Oh, I hate storms...especially tornado warnings. And I have no basement. Glad you ended up with no tornado...that would have been terribly bad. Thanks for you post.
Oh, my. That really was a weekend to look back upon and laugh, otherwise you'd probably go crazy. This was my Monday:
Overslept - bad. I never oversleep.
Turned on desktop for first time since decorating. Didn't work - bad.
Went to friends for coffee - good.
Friends dog tried to hump me - bad.
Friends other dog decided my arm was a nice to lick, all the time - bad.
Got a takeaway for tea - good.
Played new GaGa album for first time. Didn't like it - bad.
Cuddled up with Mr. G and read - good.
Comupter cost £60 to fix - very bad!
You have to put it in perspective and smile ... not always easy in the middle ... but in the scheme of things what will you remember years from now the problems and hassles or the movie on the ipad?
Love the new look :)
Crazy beginning of the week - hope it's evens out as your week continues :)
We've been having terrible weather here too, but it doesn't compare with what's going on in Missouri and Oklahoma. It's great that you're able to keep your sense of humor when so many things go wrong at once. Julie
Wow..you can really find the good & bad in life ya..
Oh..I noticed you changed the header picture..nice..!
I was just whining about the wind before I read this. Maybe it's not so bad here. On the bright side of your ups and downs, it makes a great blog post :) (and what could be more important than that - thanks for the laughs)
