Sorry About That…

Posted by mike on Dec 16, 2008 in General Musings |

What a crazy time its been. I’ve had so little time between taking a new job and wrestling with negative issue after negative issue in other aspects of my life. I’m not one to rant on my blog, so here is a bullet list of things people should know.

  • When you tell someone the furnace is fine and it is not fine, you cost them money.
  • Don’t flush non-flushables down a toilet at a house that is not your own.
  • Driving for 13 hours (round trip) for a 20 hour stay and little interaction with the family is a waste of time
  • Don’t force people to adjust to your schedule when you have other options available
  • Let people know when your kid is sick and don’t invite them over knowing they’re contagious
  • Throwing the contents of your basement out is a sad time, especially when it came as a result of someone else’s actions
  • Kids fall out of cribs
  • Last minute bills at Christmas time suck

It has been a harrowing six weeks or so and I am glad things seem to be turning the corner. Quite frankly, if things got much worse we were going to suspend Christmas so we could enjoy it. With things coming back to normal, I am trying to get my blogging, reading, writing, and other activities back online. My wife says I feel better when I do them and I believe her.

    Sounds like you have had a tough several weeks. But glad to see you back to blogging. Dare I mention things will get better?

    Would it make you chuckle if I did my bullet point? They may make you laugh :)

    Sue,

    You’re still here, that is great.

    Yes, things will get better, no doubt. Already turning the corner.

    Mike

    “Happy” and “Holidays” are two terms that seem to be the direct opposite of each other.

    And it is not over yet!

    I will save my new issues for my own blog.
