New Year’s Day
Well, I may have jumped the gun about 2010 being the best year yet.
Hopefully today is not indicative of what is to come. My husband is out of work with the flu…no work, no income. A horrible grating sound coming from the washing machine woke me up this morning (hopefully easily fixed). Then while I was working on answering my emails, the dryer caught fire. Thank God my husband went to get a pillow and caught it before our house caught fire. Had to run to the pharmacy 35 miles away because they forgot to give me one of hubby’s medicines yesterday…..the most important one….his antibiotic.
The good news is that we are all safe and sound and together. We have a roof over our heads, electricity to keep us warm, and food to eat. That is a lot more than some others have.
Say a prayer for us that this year turns around. We could use an upward turn in our lives.



Wow, really hope this is not how your whole year goes! Maybe start fresh tomorrow??
**sending prayers and Hugs**
Nope not a sign for things to come. Just the worst that can happen for the New Year. Can only get better from now on.
Oh Marilyn, send you a ton of prayers and hugs!
I am so sorry this happened! However, you are both SAFE AND SOUND and to me, that makes today, January 1st, 2010 a fantastic start to the New Year…do you hear me Marilyn!
Oh My Gosh! Your washing machine and my microwave. Blew out while we were standing at the kitchen sink. Didn`t catch on fire though-pulled the plug right away. We`re both fortunate. Keep the faith my friend-things will be better w/the morrow…….
Awww Marilyn, look at it this way… the crap has already hit the fan for this year, so everything after this should be FABulous for you in 2010! Keeping positive thoughts for you and hubby

Oh Marilyn, what a day you had. But just think, you’re both safe and sounds, and it can only get better from here on! Sending love and hugs and prayers for a happy and healthy (and less eventful!) 2010 for you both

Marilyn, I am glad everyone is safe. Rewind to the energy you have felt before yesterday. 2010 is going to be good. Hugs to you both!

As you mentioned, you still had a bit of luck even in the middle of all of that mess (found the fire before any major damage), so try to look on the bright side.
Hugs.
Just a little of leftover 2009. The new year will bring good things. Sending good thoughts your way!
Marillynn:
Your share of bad luck has surely been exhausted for 2010!! So glad that the fire was not more extensive. HOping your hubs is feeling better soon. Wishing you lots of sales this year and peace and happiness.

Oh Marilyn! Sounds like your guardian angels were on the job with that dryer fire! Praying for a wonderful and healthy 2010 for you and your husband.
