Is the world off its axis today?

I can't believe it's been such a long time since I've posted anything. Seems like there aren't enough days in the week, much less hours in the day lately!

What with working two days each week, teaching conversational English to a very nice Mexican lady two afternoons each week, attending all kinds of classes in order to become a "better soldier" in the ASDF, teaching ladies with embroidery machines how to use their software and how to digitize, and paper work up the ying yang this old gal doesn't have time for an occasional "pit stop" these days!

I can't believe the price of gas! Good golly Miss Molly, but po folks like me won't be able afford to drive to the grocery store - and if we do scrape the funds together to get there, we won't be able to purchase any groceries! Why doesn't this make any sense?

Isn't today supposed to be the first day of Spring? Everything is in bud and trying to bloom, and the weather is cold, cold, cold! The old bones are creaking, groaning, and moaning very loudly these days!

Hmm, sounds to me like I'm complaining, doesn't it! WELL, I AM! Did you ever have one of those days when you wished you hadn't? Today is one of those days for me - nothing I've done has come out right, everything I've touched has landed on the floor in a huge mess, stepped on Miss Freckles' tail and hurt her feelings (probably didn't hurt her tail at all), while pouring my first cup of coffee of the day the mug broke (I did learn that hot coffee will sure put a shine on my kitchen floor!), and the "check engine" light came on in my car as I started it up to go to the post office. Think I should just go back to bed and try to start the day all over again - but, with my kind of luck, things would get worse!!!

Micky Finn is done for today!
