I had a 45lb bag of birdseed break open onto my kitchen floor this morning, So far, have not seen the humor in it. Maybe later.😬
I see everything with humor.
I always compare it with worse things that have happened to me in the past --- then I realize it's not that bad.

I know I'm having a bad week when I think of last May and June as the good old days.

@Desert Lily I totally relate. I have actually written three novellas and two readers magnets in the past month at work during slow times. Drafts obviously but the story is there. I am super anxious to get it started and learning all I can about self publishing along the way. Still deciding on my pen name too, I get the anonymity wish. Congrats!!

Well when I let Eddy out very early this morning, I saw three packages from QVC!
Last nite around nine o'clock, I heard a loud slamming noise as Eddy and I sat in the kitchen watching Fox (forgot abou ITKWD). I closed the kitchen door and then went and checked the other end of the house. Saw a truck with red lights on and someon was walking to it. It was bigger than an ambulance - my first thought. Smaller than a UPS truck. Anyways, I called my neighbor across the street. She's ninety years old and I kinda watch out for her so wanted to make sure she was all right and no one had broken in. (Knew it wasn't an ambulance 'cause a couple months ago she dropped her alarm she wears around her neck and before she realized it there were two cruiser and an ambulance there
. So, don't know who delivered it but must have been my packages.
Anyways two cardboard packages were so wet, they peeled apart when I tried to open them. It was okay though - just a lock'n lock and a couple of CE pans. The other package was a hundred count shrimp potstickers I'd been waiting for though. All the ice was gone - they were sitting out too long. Called customer service and someone immediately answered!!!! Unfortunately these were sold out even on waitlist so she had to credit me and I won't get my shrimp potstickers
. That's my yucky day story today. Not as good as everyone's but I really wanted those shrimp potstickers.....

@eddyandme 100 shrimps bit the dust. That is so sad especially when you have a taste and they make the delivery. ![]()

With all the mishaps I should be shaking my head feeling sorry for everyone BUT instead I am laughing. This has been one of the funniest threads I have seen here in years. It just proves there is humor in many things if you look for it. Thank you everyone, I needed those laughs.

@Desert Lily That is harder and more impressive because you do it all yourself. Take the glory! It is much deserved.
