Is It Murphy's Law, Or Something Worse!!
Mur·phy's Law
/ˌmərfēz ˈlô/
noun
- 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!!
