Have You Had “One Of Those Days” Lately?

by Charles on January 8, 2009

All of us have “one of those days” from time to time but I seem to be having a cluster of them this week. Nothing disastrous but I’m definitely not going to walk under any ladders or break mirrors anytime soon.

Over the last two days we’ve had nearly seven inches of rain. Most of it fell while I was making a visit to the bank that I couldn’t postpone. It seems that when the streets start to flood a lot of people drive faster to try to get out of the rain quicker. Its kind of entertaining when they aren’t coming at you.

When I discovered that a splashing sound I kept hearing was nearly an inch of water that had somehow found its way into the floor of my backseat, I thought it might be a good time to stop at the wine shop. There I found that my favorite wine had gone up by four dollars a bottle since last week.

None of this was a major disaster but I was starting to see the writing on the wall.

So when I found time this morning to make some more of the planned improvements on my website, I moved any flammable material far away from my computer. I also made backups to be safe.

Well if you tried to view my site today, I think the “fatal error” message explained how things went.

It took longer to make the corrections than I expected and I apologize for the downtime.

I haven’t made this post to whine but I know a lot of us have had a rough week and want to let you know you weren’t the the only one. As long as we don’t let things make us give up, they will get better.
