No seafood festival

no seafood festival
Due to circumstances out of our control the seafood festival was not to be. I mean the festival was here we just weren't able to attend. When I found this out yesterday I was sulking cause I had my taste buds all set for some shrimp and honestly it gets old making plans and having them fall through over and over again. It seems the planets must align just so for us to have a simple date night. The nursing agency wasn't able to find any coverage for Nickie which meant I have 3 straight days without relief. It also means that on the only days that Bob has off and we could possibly go out together alone, without nursing care that just can't happen. We made the best of it and bought a new charcoal grill and some steaks. It wasn't shrimp but it was good. I will have to pick up some shrimp and fix up some spicy peel and eat shrimp here at home very soon. I'm trying real hard to be happy with my life as it is and for the most part I'm very happy. I just have those times when I feel like, this is my lot in life and nothing is ever going to change. I hate feeling that way and I know I should be thankful for everything I have, the good the bad and the ugly. For with out the bad I can't appreciate the good and with out the ugly I can't appreciate the beauty. When I remember I thank God for even the bad and the ugly and remind him I'd love to see more of the good. Something tells me I'm not praying correctly but I assure you my heart is in the right place
