O.K., so I woke up this morning feeling strange and a little out of sorts... I could tell it was going to be one of those days when you just know that the world is out to get you! You go out for coffee and they get your order wrong; you go to get your car washed and you realize that there is a new dent in the fender that wasn't there yesterday; you realize your finances aren't going to cover your monthly bills this month; and, your best friend, who you always can rely on, is off in Mexico somewhere drinking Pina Coladas.

This just about sums it up. I'm feeling sorry for myself. So, I decided to write this message instead of continuing my pity-trip. When I am feeling like life is getting out of hand, I find that writing is my escape. I know that I am not alone and I also know that this too shall pass.

The good news . . . I had a chocolate bar in the refrigerator!
