When It Rains.... It Pours!

I can safely say today was not that best day I have had.  But that seems to be a long running pattern lately.  To start this day off, not only did I have to get up for a 6am shift at work.  But on the way to work our car got a flat tire and needed to be replaced.  I knew from then it just was not my day.  Because when I got to work I found us working short a person again.  And where I work when you are missing someone, it doubles your work load.  To make matters worse, we have a patient that also decided to have a not so good day either.  Needless to say my 6am-2pm shift was the shift from hell. 

I guess I shouldn't be complaining since I do have an okay job.  Even though it is a very stressful and draining job.  It can also be rewarding as well.  but those times are becoming few and far between. 

So back to my craptastic day.  After work was the drive with my dad to the tire place to get the tire fixed and we find out it's not just one, but two tires that need to be fixed. Over $250 later that I didn't have to just shell out.  So much for the overtime I put in last week to try and have a little extra money.  I think whoever said money was the root of evil was right.  Though this is becoming a very common occurrence. And my husband can also agree with me.  It does not fail that every time both he or myself try to get a little extra money put aside, something happens to our car.  It's like it knows... creepy huh?  Maybe it's like that car in that Stephen King novel. Just my luck once again.

Ok so enough complaining for now.  Even though venting is a good thing.  I think I need to end this on a positive note.  I did get a very interesting offer today that I am considering but need to do a lot of research on.  Who knows, maybe something will come out of it.
