When It Rains It Pours
Do you ever feel like nothing can go right? I have to say that I have been feeling like I'm being punished for something. Right after Thanksgiving, my refrigerator wasn't working. It has some sort of sensor that is not functioning properly and it ices up. I have to thaw it out every couple of weeks so it will stay cold. I can live with that, no big deal. Then Michael dropped his cell phone in a puddle. Still under warranty, whew! Then I dropped Brandon's phone in the washer. Not my fault, he did not take it out of his pocket before handing me his clothes to be washed. Not covered under warranty anymore, I had to pay for it. Ugh! The kitchen faucet will not turn off. I hooked the portable dishwasher up to it so the water is not running all the time until I can get it fixed. The television in our living room broke last week, followed by the microwave. I said what next....This morning my computer started "acting up". I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT MY COMPUTER! Thank God my hubby's friend is a genius and got it up and running again. But I have to ask, "Am I jinxed?"

That sucks! When we have periods of time where things are going wrong like that we go out for Chinese food to break the bad spell. I've been doing this since I was a kid and it always works!
ReplyDeleteI hope things start looking up soon!
I think it's "Murphy's Law" when one thing goes wrong.....it kind of has a domino effect.
ReplyDeleteI have washed a wallet (several times) and a cell phone that my oldest left in his jeans. After replacing the cell phone at a hefty price....we opted to buy insurance on it.
Which is good...because half the time he has no idea where it is either!!
Hope things settle down for you soon :-)
Hang in there!
So sorry that things haven't been running very smoothly lately...we've all been through it one time or another. You are not alone, my friend! I really hope that things get better real soon!
ReplyDeleteOh Sandy! As much that has broken, at least you don't have much left to break!!
ReplyDeleteWhen it rains, it pours. But, it never lasts forever. I'm sorry for the string of bad luck this week though. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteOh, and the cell phone in the wash...I did that twice this summer to my son's phone and since it was my fault I had to pay for it. :(
Yes, it does seem that when one thing goes, they all go.....bummer.
ReplyDeleteTalk about having bad luck, bad karma and being jinxed! At my house, events like this are usually a direct result of having purchased salt. You purchase any salt lately?
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of stuff to break all at once. I am very sorry. I'm thinking that maybe all of it has happened all at once and for the rest of the year now you will have nothing break whatsoever . . . :)
ReplyDeleteSalt! LOL!
ReplyDeleteGee, I am sorry about the patchy road your appliances are taking. Hopefully, things will run smoother soon for you.
The important thing is that Big Daddy has friends in high places and fixed your computer:)
You are right, when it rains it pours! Thank goodness the rain brings a rainbow! Yours will come! I am praying for you!
ReplyDeleteIt gets better eventually, just stop asking "what next"..lol..and yes SALT over the left shoulder? right? :) In life a little rain must fall...get a sturdy umbrella! I'm done being confucious.. *hugs* hope it gets better soon!!
ReplyDelete{{{Sandy}}}...you are just being tested..stay strong!!
ReplyDeleteWhen it rains, it does pour...but it will soon pass, and maybe you'll even see a rainbow! ;) Sorry you've had a crummy week with all that...and I thought Murphy's Law stalked me the most! ;)
ReplyDeletethat is so not fair, I hope that your jinx leaves you soon.
ReplyDeleteYIKES those things are supposed to occur in threes....but you're WAY past three! I hope things start going smoother from now on!!! Oh and don't get to close to me in case it rubs off hehehe.
ReplyDeleteNope, not jinxed! Shit happens......so you just gotta flush! Hang in there honey! The sun will come out.......tomorrow....tomorrow!!
ReplyDelete=)
Total bummer
ReplyDeleteNo you are not jinxed. That's just how it works. Everything goes at the same time. It is the law of Universe.
ReplyDeleteI would die without my computer, talk about anxiety! Ha! Well at least you can say things can't get worse! Wait....don't say that, you might be jinxed!
ReplyDeleteI hate it when things break like that all at the same time. Hope it all starts working again soon!
ReplyDeleteGood grief! It will get better....I mean, what else could happen? Right?
ReplyDeleteUgh! Hope things start to go your way soon. We had that kind of week last week, I'm ready for a change of pace!
ReplyDeleteTake care!
