When it rains ... it pours!

How come it seems as though life is either all or nothing? It's not like you could have a busy week at work, and a quiet week at home ... or conversely, a quiet week at work, and a busy week at home. Oh no. Everything seems to come at you from all angles!

I love, love, love everything that I am involved in, but does it all have to happen on exactly the SAME week?

And then, of course, that is the week that one of your dear friends comes up to you and says, "Are you okay? You look like crap today."

Gee, thanks.

Doesn't anyone remember what Mother taught us ... "If you can't say anything nice, don't say ANYthing at all!" Clearly none of my friends have that filter button!

Oh, and did I mention, that on top of everything else, my lovely black lab left me a surprise on the kitchen floor when I got up this morning?

Yep, when it rains, it pours.

So clearly, my only option tonight is to climb in to bed, pull the covers over my head, and hope that tomorrow goes a tad bit more smoothly than today did! :)

(On the flip side, check out my favorite weekly column, "Suburban Fringe." It's quite funny this week! http://www.stltoday.com/fringe)

Let the rain fall down ...
