Remember the Perfic Day. Well that certainly never happened.
To be completely honest I've had a pretty nightmarish weekend.
That Friday I really wished I had gone to work because I had
my lovely warm bath which I had to try and sweat out my cold turned out to be a
disaster. I got soap in my eye which made my contact lense kind of go behind my
eye, so I leapt out of the incredibly deep bath to only see a wave of water
follow me and spread all over the bathroom floor. This took me ages to mop up!
I then came
downstairs to find a broken computer due to a power surge during a storm, which
had consequently blown the hard drive.
So poor Craig had a horrible welcome when he got home on Friday
after work.
The computer problem was fixed by my uncle yesterday but unfortunately
we have lost all photos, music etc since February this year; so all our bogging
photos, holiday snaps, home transformation and chickens :( What a real shame.
This morning I noticed the clothes I had put on the radiator
hadn't dried which was really strange, so I went to put on the heating and it
wouldn't come on.
We phoned our plumber who told us this only happens if there
is a leak, and low and behold, we found a leak coming from the valve in the
kitchen radiator.
So that is basically our weekend. Not much fun and a blag!
All the more reason I guess to focus on Reason's to be Cheerful.
Sometimes it's very had to feel cheerful
and even the best things in life (crochet included) can't even help to put a
smile on our face.
But no matter how miserable we are, or how crap the weekend
has been, or how sad we feel about bad things that have happened; we must
always feel grateful for those little things that make us smile.
Here are my Reason's To Be Cheerful (N.B. 11 & 12 -
HAPPY FATHERS DAY! XXXXX)

ReplyDeleteHello Kate.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget me Kate....I'm a bit behind with my notebook thingy. I have to go and buy a new one the one I had in preparation has been pinched by my grand-daughter...ok not pinched she didn't realize I was going to use it and she used it for some school work. I am also a little bit puffed as I've been busy this weekend with bloggers requests...its hot work sending out all those sun rays... clarification on my blog.
Very sorry to hear you have been having troubles but glad also to see you are still able to find cheerfuls in your daily life I hope this works for me too.
Keep well
