Is It Murphy's Law, Or Something Worse!!

Mur·phy's Law
/ˌmərfēz ˈlô/
noun
  1. a supposed law of nature, expressed in various humorous popular sayings, to the effect that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.

I'm deciding if I should water the plants this morning. The weather person predicts rain, but he/she is right 50% of the time, so ...




All I know is if I water the plants, it will definitely pour down rain today...and if I do not water the plants, it will definitely NOT rain today!




What's a muther to do?




I don't know about you, but that's the way EVERYTHING works for me. For example...

The last 10 winters it has snowed a tremendous amount of white stuff (not really, this is just an illustration), so I go out and buy a snow blower. (not really, because I can't afford a snow blower)




Anyway, guess what happens the next 10 winters. Correctomundo! Hardly any snow at all!!

Example 2: There are juvenile delinquent kids running through the yard, constantly! Littering, and ruining my grass, laughing real loud, and destroying stuff! (not really, it's only a made up story) Therefore, I put up a big wooden fence to keep them out. (I can't actually afford a big wooden fence, but I need to make a point here)




Guess what happens? You're right! The 2 families that had the rowdy kids, move away, and the neighborhood is peaceful and quiet for the next 10 years!!




What a waste of cold hard cash! (I never, ever had cash that was cold or hard, but it's just an old expression that a rare few use anymore, so why did I use it?)

So, I ask you kind readers...does it work that way for you, or am I under some ancient curse, or something?




Please express yourself in the prominent comments section below, or on Fazebook, or personally, if I ever leave the houze!


Have a happy day!!

  1. so maybe make a door /gate in the fence ??? also leaf blowers are cheap snow blowers too ! Amnd you know it is your small sprinkle of watering that is required to set off the rain storms ! So yes water away it is essential !
