Ever have a case of bad luck?

I give anything I could just turn back time and do today all over again. I got woken up to early this morning by the phone. I was basically woken up from there. Then, while talking to another person, hoping to get a good deal for refinancing our home, the guy gave me a deal that was outragious, it wasn't even funny. The day isn't over yet, it came a huge storm, me and my husband had to fight with the wind and rain, to fix the cover over our patio. The wind was so strong it ripped the cover. Finally to top it all off, as I was coming back into my house from taking my dog out. I tripped over the step, which is slick from the huge storm and fell. I had my daughter in my arms at the time, bless her heart. She fell and hit her head. I tore holes in both my pjs, tore up my knees really bad and skinned the heck out of the palm of my hand. I know I will be in more pain tomorrow. I'm hoping my luck will change soon, because it's becoming depressing. So, has anyone had just as bad or even worse luck as what I have had today?

I've gotten used to my luck, I swear I have a black cloud over my head, I've even named it Fred. Sometimes I just laugh at how badly things can go and all of the things that can happen in one day. It's never just one thing either, it's like bad things line up and wait for the perfect day to strike. I'm sorry you've had a bad day and I do hope it gets better for you. I think despite all my really sh*tty luck, I've had some great days too where I think wow that jerk Fred must be on vacation, lol. Good luck!

I think I must be really depressed over it all, honestly instead of smiling over the fact that you named your black cloud Fred. It brought tears on, because I honestly know what you mean. It seems like that light at the end of the tunnel doesn't get close, it gets further and further away. I prayed that tomorrow will be better. I won't sit here and say it can't get any worse, because once you say that it does and it comes x10. Thank you for the kind words and of saying good luck. I can really use some at the moment.

I can totally understand that, these past two weeks I've been feeling very overwhelmed and burnt out. It is fustrating when things seem to always go from bad to worse. Sometimes what helps me is knowing that everything happens for a reason. I've had some really bad things happen in my life, things I'd never wish on anyone else, and yet I have to keep faith and always hold out hope that things will get better and everything will be ok. I think without hope, without faith; I'd be in a really ugly place in life right now. Somedays yes I laugh and think damn that Fred and other days I cry, I think it's normal to let yourself express every emotion and healthy sometimes. To cheer myself up I made plans for my future or do something creative or when all else fails... chocolate raspberry torte. Things will look up for you, you'll see.
