It’s been one of those days

January 3, 2009 by Tricia

Have you ever had one of those days when every thing seems to go wrong? Sure ya have.

Well … I guess I’m having one of those days. First, my husbands alarm clock decided to go on the fritz. The alarm was turned off but for some reason it still went off at midnight last night and it kept going off every once in a while until we took the batteries out of it. Then, as I was setting up my alarm clock so he could use it a button got stuck down and I can’t change the alarm time!

So that’s two clocks in one day, but that’s not all!

One of the lights we have in our living room is a tri-light so we can set it on low, medium or high lighting. Wouldn’t you know that as soon as we got home from grocery shopping (we never grocery shop on Saturday but we did this evening) the light started fizzling out. So I guess tomorrow we’ll need to go out and not only buy at least one new alarm clock, but also some tri-light bulbs!

I guess that’s not a terrible terrible day, but it makes me wonder what will happen next! Hopefully none of our more major electrical appliances decide to go on the fritz.

I hope that your day was better than mine!

    I’m a big big fan of Earl Grey Tea. It’s hard to describe the taste. Kind of like a dark citrus flavor.

    I am also an Earl Grey Tea drinker 🙂
    No other tea gives you the same flavour.
    I have only met one other person out of all my friends that do drink Earl Grey.
    If it’s good enough for the Queen, It’s good enough for me.
    Thats what I tell my friends.
