    Unhappy murphy's back again......

    and like I said he's mad because he didn't get a christmas gift. I took the car to the garage for the repairs it needed for inspection. The guy on the phone told it would be under $100 parts and labor. I got the bill.......$146.00When I asked why he said some one must have misunderstood. This along with my dh's boss shorting his pay over $100 because "mistakes" happen is enough to send me screaming after Murphy! (I was so mad I forgot to get gas. There I was 25 miles out in the jing weeds with the gas light on, where gas is $3.19 a gallon.)But at least it's the start of a new year soon so everyone have a happy and save one. Thanks for listening, I feel better now

    Give Murphy the boot!

    At least you didn't run out of gas and end up walking, eventhough you did pay $3.19 a gallon.

It seems that I never have and good things going on in my life. I have basically given up. Does the bad stuff ever end? Thanks for always listenng.

    Unhappy

    I haven't posted for a few days. I'm kinda out of sorts if you know what I mean. Kinda lost and alone.
