Ok, is 2010 over yet???! In one week's time, we've had a main water line break going to our meter, and then a hot water line under the kitchen sink, and then my fuel pump went in my car. Huh, so much for the savings account. So NOW my refrigerator died. AAArrrgh!!! Silly me had to ask the question "What next?", so now I guess I have my answer!! But I'm kinda at the point where I just have to laugh. It' that or cry,lol!

I've always heard bad things happen in three's. You've had more than your three. Now it's time for some good things! Life can sure be difficult at times? Hang in there. Things *will* get better!

Thanks!! I'm trying my best. I've been through bad stretches before, but something always seems to pop up and save my butt, so I gotta believe this run of bad luck will end, too!

I've been there, and stupid me, I always ask that question "What next?". And I always get my answer lol. And it's never a good one! lol It's always better to just laugh and do what has to be done then to cry over it. I bought a '91 Blazer a couple of years back, and for the first couple of months it seemed it was in the shop more than in my driveway.

Vehicles always seem to figure int runs of bad luck, huh??! I was joking with my bssand said that if I could just get them to send me my paycheck without requiring me to show up there, I wouldn't NEED my car. Told her it would be the 'green' thing to do, save on emissions, fuel, etc....eh, no go,lol!

Oh, you definitely don't want to ask that, at least not in the context of something else bad happening. That's just asking for more trouble! There are always challenges in life; best to meet them with a positive outlook and to always hope for the best to happen.
