Good, Bad and Worse News

Hi,

Good news: I survived Hurricane Dennis. I am really lucky. All that happened is that my roof sprang a leak, so there are puddles of water for me to clean up. However, God is good.

Bad news: Today is my birthday. I have to spend my birthday cleaning up the house. There is just so much to do. I have two leaks and they caused me to turn my house upside down. It is amazing how much water is on the floor and how much furniture I have to re-arrange. Right now, I am blowdrying a matress that got wet.

Worse news: Today is also my anniversary. How awful is that? I am stuck at home doing all this housework on this special day of mine. To make matters worse, DH got called in to work. Damn. Even worse, my twin sister, who was supposed to spend part of the day with me (celebrating our birth) cant do so anymore. Where she lives, there is a lot of debris blocking the road. So, she is trapped. Can things get anymore gloomy. YES. All my plans for this weekend are going down the drain. DH and I were planning to go to a resort for the anniversary, but things look kinda grim. OK, I am gonna cry now. (just kidding) I am OK. Things may not be ideal, but at least I have you guys to vent on.
 
Happy Birthday! I am sorry it turned out to be so crappy. Happy anniversary as well. Maybe you could move your plans until next weekend.

Awww, (((HUGS))), I'm sorry you're not having the best birthday and anniversary. But I sure am glad that you survived the hurricane and came away unscathed. That is definitely good news!

It will get better! Hang in there!

Happy birthday and happy anniversary! :D
 
Wow, you've been through a lot! Sending huge hugs your way...happy birthday AND anniversary...hope you get to do something special for both...if not today, then VERY soon...take care! :)
 
Happy birthday and anniversary!!! Once you get yourself back to normal, you need to do something EXTRA SPECIAL to make up for having not such a great day:)
 
Ugh....what a mess. But it could have been so much worse and I'm glad you and your family are okay! Today concentrate on celebrating surviving Dennis! Then just pretend that your birthday/anniversary is a different day and celebrate both occasions at once!

Congratulations on surviving Dennis! Happy Birthday! Happy Anniversary! Don't forget to get in major celebrations as soon as you can. They've been delayed, that's all. Put on some groovy tunes and whistle while you work! :)

Happy B-day and happy Anniversary, sorry that it's turned out so gloomy but maybe you can have a late celerbration that will even be better then the one that you planned and got ruined. I know you've probably waited for this for a while, but just tell yourself you just got to wait a little more, and if you do, it will be really special.

Look at it this way, at least you still can get on-line so your not totally alone today, we are all here. So you can celerbrate with us.

I'll bring the virtual champagne and cake. ;-) Zero calories and you can have as much as you want.

There are some days when ya just can't win, huh? I had a birthday like that when everything went wrong and I just wanted to re-schedule!

I am glad that you are safe and hope that you were able to make the most of your day :)

Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary!
