almost 39

as i head into the last year in my 30s things have been breaking down this week...

took my car in with the check engine light on. as we got there the light went off. of course. murphys law. decided to get it check anyways and pay the money even if it was just the gas cap. which was good because the battery was almost dead and i needed something else.

so we spent two hours getting the car fixed. and had to bring it back the next day. we brought it back and got a loaner car. they fixed the air thing and luckily it was covered under our extended warranty. but then mike noticed two huge scrapes along both sides of my car. so we left it and he wanted the dealer to fix it. tonight we went back again to get it when they said they fixed both sides and again they did not fix it.....grrrr

also this week i drove out to the apple store because my apple watch decided to die...this is a trend this week...and it just had a black face and white line...luckily we had apple care. so we sent it away. today they called and it was ready to be picked up. went to get it and they gave me a new one.

not sure if this is a sign or an omen...but things are breaking down.

haley and i have had bad colds, chills and aches and fevers.

bear has been throwing up.

my dad started chemo this week. the good news though is that he says he doesn't feel so bad. but is that because he's comparing to the last time he had chemo when he was in his early 20s and chemo was so different then or is he being strong for us? and is it really good news when you dad has had cancer three times and is getting chemo?!

so much going on that the car being worked on is just a pain and my watch dying those are materialistic things....me getting older - yea whatever - last year i wasn't feeling well but this year i'm feeling so much better we are roller skating on my birthday. so that's good.

but also there are more shootings and bad stuff in the world that my stomach just aches to think about and to think about our kids finding out about. they know some stuff. but i don't want them to know everything.

i don't even know what the point of this blog was. but ha  - guess another sign that i'm getting old.
