The Bad...my friend was diagnosed with breast cancer. The Good? Well, if there is one, I'm not sure. But I made her a cute Chemo hat.
More Bad...I backed into parked car with the hubby's truck. The Good? I Have Insurance.
More Good... watched the wee ones make sugar cookies. Nothing bad about that!
The Bad...went to a craft fair. It's been a long time since I have been to one, and I was saddened to see more of the same cheesy stuff you always see. Where's the innovation??? The Good? I found this "stein" to take to a fun Oktoberfest party down the street!!

The REALLY good? Take along fresh apple pie!
The Ugly? No words are needed. I left my purse in the front seat. My Bad. Soccer Moms beware...they sit in wait in the school parking lot...watching your hustle and the distraction and chaos of getting your kid to the field...
The good in this? I have insurance. And I have a good bank who watches my accounts. Laurel 6...Thieves 0. The bad? Replacing all the cards, Gigi Hill wallet gone, no driver's license and two hours at DMV...
I am pretty glad that October is almost behind me. It's been a roller coaster. But in the end, I can say that even though the Bad and The Ugly were tough, there is still much to be thankful for...like photographing my granddaughter for her senior portrait, taking our good friends out to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary, having fun with my knitting friends, reading a great book, enjoying a "Refuel" daily devotional series, watching "Upstairs, Downstairs" on PBS, getting my flu shot, celebrating another friend's 70th birthday, spending the day in Berkeley shopping at Stone Mountain and Daughter for fabric and many other blessings.
Life is a daily drama, but it's meant to be lived each day. So I will not focus on the (*%*#@^*&^, but concentrate on enjoying today. After all...it's finally Fall, it's raining and I have firewood.
Laurel. Breathe...

Oh, your car! How infuriating!
ReplyDeleteI hear you.... and breathe! I've had a $$@@ October too - but we will come out the other side and be thankful for a lot!
ReplyDeleteGreat observations on your lot.
A 'good' post :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings dear. It is refreshing that you can truly see the "Good" in all the "Bad and Ugly". I am sorry for your mishaps and will pray for your friend and her diagnosed cancer. You are one of the good ones Laurel...
ReplyDeleteBalance is the most important thing in life, and you do manage to keep balanced. Sorry about these mishaps.
ReplyDeleteSome interesting photos here. I'm sorry about your friend. One of my long time friends just let me know yesterday that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer also. You've given me an idea to make her a chemo hat. The one you've made your friend is lovely.
