Ive had electrical problems. The main circut breaker burnt out last night, I found I need a new meter box, thats about 150 dollars plus the wait for CFE to come hook it up. Its a job to keep these old houses from falling apart.

Today i was out with my friends for my birthday celebration. When we reached the park, where we were going to celebrate , it started raining. The party program was on the urge of its ending that one of my friend started playing guitar and start singing. I must say he is a very good singer. So Playing guitar and after that dancing in the rain made my day.

I was wrong about my electric meter box. The wiring in the house shorted out and burnt up. But Ill survive. I got candles and kerosene lamps and a generator, thats what Im running the computer on so as long as I have that and my books Il be OK until I can get the house rewired. No big deal.

@ Fran, it dosent do much good to get upset, thats what life is. A series of problems that you have to deal with one at a time and plod along the best you can. Theres a saying that says it better but I cant post it here. This is a family forum.

48 degrees and you loved it. Ahhhrrr, Ant you and I really need to swap countries.

That would suit me just fine Gannon, rained nearly all day again here.

It peaked at 48 degrees on the Wednesday then cooled down to a balmy 40 for the rest of the week

Some of the scenery there is stunning and the local people are really friendly, Fran's right, they are really glad of the custom.

This isnt the exact words, but it has the same meaning. When dealing with life, make sure your back is to the wall.

We lost the baby a few days ago. Isnt the first time. For a while it felt like I was in hell with how sad and angry I was. But Matt and I are far from giving up hope for our family. We both know we're meant to be parents and surrounded by children. Its just taking longer than we expected.. that fact alone is enough to sadden me if the failed baby wasnt enough. But we're both strong willed and for the sake of our future children we're both determined to get back to normal so we can try again.
