The facts of life…

 

 

I’ve come to the conclusion that there are just some facts of my life that I will end up having to deal with day in and out no matter what..   Some are fixable and some are just funny to think about, and others … well are just facts of life.

 

It’s a fact of life that a pair of jumper cables will be a permanent fixture in the front seat of my car. 

 

It’s a fact of life that before each payday I will have no more than $4 in my check book.

 

It’s a fact of life that the crush button on my Ice maker will only work when it wants to, apparently it has an attitude.

 

… I will always be surprised by what my kids do next.

 

… when I think things are ready to slow down and even out something else will always come up

 

… the antique VW sitting in my driveway will probably continue sitting there only to be driven one or two days a year.  And even though we have discussed selling it… it will probably stay a permanent fixture in our life.  

 

… I will be sweeping and mopping my dining room and kitchen floors until the end of time.  Due to two rowdy dogs and 3 kids.

 

… I will always need to run to the store for something even though we just went grocery shopping.

 

… when hubby is away I become obsessive about checking my door and window locks and I look behind my shower curtain before I go to bed. 

 

… gas prices will never hit 89cent a gallon again.

 

 

While there are a hundred more things I could list, that I’ve just learned to live with… I’d like to hear of some things that you’ve learned to just… live with.
