Back To Reality.....

I wanted to write about our beach trip last week, but I think I need to vent first.  Tomorrow is my day off, and instead of cleaning the house and doing yard work, like I had planned, I will be desperately trying to fix my refrigerator.   It died today.  I am not happy about this at all.  I have a freezer full of things that are half melted, and my frig is full of perishables..... not good.  I just finished unloading the freezer, and putting everything in the freezer where I store animal bodies and bird food...  at least I had somewhere to put it... at least there is that.  But I am so tired of thing breaking around here.  My air conditioner is also not working so well, and the house is very hot...  And I have to repair the leak in the kids' pool... And I have to someday get around to fixing the riding mower...  But I MUST fix the frig tomorrow!  I hope I can... I researched the problem, and I think it is a bad starter relay-- don't ya just love the internet!  But it could be the condenser....  If that is the case, I am going to have a temper tantrum.  Seriously.   Things like this always seem to happen after I have gone on vacation or spent a large amount of money on something.   Why?!?!?!?  Anyway, I need to just relax and let these little ( or big) set backs roll off my shoulders.  I'm going to just try to keep smiling.... and planning my escape.  Someday I will move to a little island somewhere and bask in the sun while sipping a frozen drink, and laugh about these times... at least I can dream about it.  Ah, if life were only that simple....
