Bad Luck Comes in Threes or So They Say

I never believed in that saying but it seems that yesterday (Saturday) proved it right to me for once.

Yesterday started out as a pretty good day.  Weather was sunny and warm for a change and B and I were looking forward to getting some yardwork done.

BAD LUCK #1!

In the middle of mowing the lawn the wheel fell off the riding lawnmower.  It took both of us to push it into the garage.  B spent the next hour trying to get the wheel back on.  The result being that it wouldn't go back on and we would either have to find someone to repair it (which has never been an easy thing to do) or buy a new one.

BAD LUCK #2!

Went into the freezer to get dinner going only to find the freezer light out.  Of course, being Saturday night, there was no way to get a replacement and had to use a flashlight to see into the freezer.

BAD LUCK #3!

In the middle of a movie B and I were watching last night, the television went black.  We had sound but no picture.  After checking the tv in the bedroom and seeing it was working fine, we checked over the one we had been watching.  Everything was as it should be except no picture.  So now we have to go out on Sunday and get a new tv.  Then because we have our tv through a satellite system, we have to call the satellite company on Monday and see how soon we can get someone out here to install the tv onto the system.

And as if to add one more point to bad luck, the weather went from 84 degrees Saturday to 45 degrees today.

  1. Ellen, sometimes those little clouds sure can block out the whole blue sky, can't they? I hope the cost of those replacements wouldn't hurt too much but whatever needs replacing needs to be replaced/repaired whether we like it or not and perhaps, now's a better time than later.
