It’s been one of those Summers. Clearly the universe is not done with me and now it’s becoming one of those Falls.
I reflect back to the beginning of the year when I announced here, that 2019 was going to be my year. The universe has other ideas. The universe read what I wrote and decided to show me who’s boss. Not me.
Burning bridges? Sometimes it feels like scorched earth. There are days when you first enter the world of wakefulness, and you think – NO!!! – just a few minutes more so that I don’t have to face what’s going to go wrong today! BECAUSE SOMETHING ALWAYS GOES WRONG!
Something always breaks. Something has to be replaced. Something is so old that they don’t make replacement parts anymore. (Really Dyson?) And a 20% discount on the new model is supposed to make me feel better? The pool man says pumps are only made to last 2 years ma’am! The City water department tells me the leak is on MY side of the meter (of course it is, has it ever been on their side?). The new car battery is dead because hey, it wasn’t the battery that was bad, it was the alternator. The garbage disposal? You’re only supposed to put soft things in there? Didn’t your Mom tell you to put ice in it to sharpen the blades? Guess what, they’re AREN’T any blades. What?
I’m not going to burn any bridges, I’m going to fire bomb them. Hey universe, this is me telling you what bridge you can drive OFF OF!
OK – I’ve vented, but I am searching for a new bridge to cross, because what’s left of the old one is toast!
Hey girl — next year can only be better, right?!?!? Always looking forward –> with a big smile!! Love you, friend!!
Love back!!
