One of those days, weeks, hopefully not years.......

Old Town (Gainesvill, FL(Zone 8a)

Its been one of those days actually weeks so far... Yesterday my new plan on what I was going to do didn't work out very well like I planned. Then on the way home with the kids in the car it overheated so I had to pull over find some water and put it in... Then made it hoem fine thought ok was just low on water... NOT! DH went to store with it and it did it again... Sooo this morning on way to work it was doing it yet again and when we got here car had almost no get up and go at all. Then after hubby dropped me off on his way to work the motor completely blew out. NO MORE CAR.... we have only had this car a year and its a 98 model. I can't afford to fix and pay 400 a month for it... Hubby's truck yesterday also blew a head gasket, but that one at least we have no payments on so maybe we can fix... Then to top it all off the zoning people called and said we had to file to change zoning (which we've been trying to do and they wouldn't let us) and we are 2 days late for the february meeting notification (how nice of them to call us 2 days short of deadline) so now we wont' be able to open our nursery until April... Hopefully we will do well at the markets on weekends, but I was really looking forward to a storefront that could be open in spring (march here in florida) I am hoping it doesn't pass us by... I don't know what else could possibly happen, but if it can, somehow I have a feeling it will soon... Just such awful things in such a short time span... Hopefully we'll get good on taxes and be able to figure something out.. If not I really don't know waht we're going to do...Ok enough venting I just feel better after I tell you guys for some reason :)

That old saying that it never rains without pouring seems to be so true! What a nasty turn of events for you and DH, Katrina. But I think that it will all turn out well down the road -- for some reason, you seem to be getting the message to stay put; so maybe there are some positive changes ahead in your present job situation, or some details about your storefront that need time to develop properly. When you look back on this period of your life, you will probably be able to see a larger pattern at work, and see the reasons why some of these things happened. That sounds ridiculous now, but you know what I mean. It's like untangling a knot -- it takes patience and a delicate touch, but eventually the thread is straight again. Am praying for your immediate and long-term needs, for your finances to be sufficient to meet all of them, and for your -- and DH's -- strength, calm and peace of mind throughout this period of upheaval.

Hahah Dori that is what everyone seems to be telling me. I am trying my hardest to keep my head up high. I am glad for the bulb co-op since that seems to get my mind off things. Might not make hubby happy but it does keep me busy !!! Thank you both for you wonderful thoughts :)
