first off i tried to but yarn from an online store I have used before.........was asked to key in the "secret" code...5+7

it would not accept my order. I did it several times so emailed the owner..............same thing the code blocked me. So i phoned her and explained...she told me she had just sold her last four balls (The ones i tried to buy) and that computers are a problem and thanks for calling!!!!!!!!!

THEN

Hung out a fairly large wash.it is very windy so I imagined a quick dry.

Five minutes later the heavens opened.....hail stones.....I am about to bring it in and spin dry it again...

NOT MY DAY!!!

You have my sympathy! I know what it's like!

 

[jinkers]

I'd sure "rather be knitting"...

 

[lilydragon]

I can sympathize... Today at work there was a small gas leak on the top floor, so they evacuated my building. We had to be back an hour later to get back to work. Then 2 hours later someone in our IT department decides they are going to "fix" something in our operating system and all it does is give everyone error messages so they couldn't work. And just an hour or so ago I got into an argument with my hubby about the difference between a safe house and a home...

Well....Yesterday I went to the doctor to try and get help so I could quit my job and get unemployment as I physically cannot do this job anymore...he responded with"sorry cannot help you...just look for a job on your day off". I have been doing that. I am 61; been working at a recycling center for 7 years and have ruined my body (I do not want anyone to think I am just lazy) meanwhile back at home before I went; the dishwasher began to smoke and burn up as the water did not fill; the clothes washer over flowed and I had an inch of water in the bathroom; utility room; morning room and it started into the kitchen. I guess it had been filling for an hour and half-2 hours....my daughter sent me a nasty email and told me not to hang up on her. I would never do that!!I stepped on the cat and now he is afraid of me.

I sure am glad that today is a new day!!!

Poor Eileen ... It will get better! (((((HUG)))))

The cat will forgive you as soon as you feed him/her again.

My bad day was yesterday. I went to get into my e-mail and the account had been suspended. My husband had passed in July, 22 days before our divorce was to be final. They suspended his account for lack of payment. I should have transferred it a long time ago but I lost an e-mail account of at least 15 years. The company wanted $290 to open the account so I could get my e-mail back. Not going to happen. Then I told my lawyer off because I am having to deal with his estate but cannot get the husbands side to cooperate. So it was an Ativan day as I don't handle anxiety well. I was in tear mode all afternoon. The highlight of my day was talking to my sweet boyfriend and him calming me down.

I have had those days also, but put it into prespective . My husband has cancer and is fighting for his life. I would take a hail storm on my laundry any day and twice on Sunday. If you have your health nothing else matters.

Shut the curtains/blinds, lock the doors, shut off the phone, put on some soothing music, sit in your favorite chair & do some mindless knitting, play games on the internet or anything else that will help this day pass quicky so you can have a better one tomorrow. ;-)

 

[bobctwn65]

oh i so agree with that..I wish I had good health and eye sight..most days have to take a nap or two just to get through the day and am so weak I can only knit an hour at a time....you healthy people take care of yourselves..cause you don't know what you got till you lose it...hugs to all

 

[no1girl]

you poor soul!!!!!!!!!! today is bright and new......I pray you soon get a better job.


cheers, Cakes

Now I feel guilty. I am having a good day. My cardiologist tells me I will live forever if I want to. I don't, but it's nice to know I am a healthy 82 years old. I have had my share of bad days soI can sympathize with you all. All I can do is pray your tomorrow will be better and send you hugs.(((())))

 

[BTRFLY]

Eileenk- I sure hope you have a better day tomorrow. You deserve one! It always seems what can go wrong will. Maybe sit down and knit a spell- you'll feel better.

 

[chaplainesr]

sounds like you have an overflowing plate! but you hit on the essence.....today is a new day! i work as a hospice chaplain....each day is a gift from our Source....each day is a new day and a chance to begin again......

prayers for healing and wholeness....

and you are very special....... we share the same first name! Eileen.....

 

[no1girl]

as you said Chaplain. My mum used to say "every day above ground is a blessing and a bonus"

 

[joanne12986]

mr2 ... I know where you are coming from. My husband also has cancer and many things that used to upset me seem so very insignificant now. Knitting has become an enormous comfort to me now. At the end of the day I make an attempt to lose myself in a lace pattern until I can sleep ... better than any pill!
