The Universe Giveth and the Universe Taketh Away

The universe gave:
One miraculous same-day chiropractic appointment.
Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

The universe took:
One very nice, rather large, frosted glass figurine that I accidentally knocked off a shelf at work. Naturally it hit my child in the face on it's way down.
Shining moment that.

The universe gave:
Lots and lots of engine feedback knock.
Whatdya know--no return to sender option on that one.

The universe took:
My warm weather!*$%

The universe gave:
A husband who can start a fire in five seconds.

All in all, it could be worse!

  1. Ahhh silly universe. Sounds overall that it gave more than it took but still..... Did said child get hurt?
    Hope the rest of the weekend goes good!

    1. Adaline,
      Said child did not get hurt, thank you for asking (though I had a moment when it crashed where I was sure he was).
      He has exhibited a marked case of suspicion when I near breakable objects, but other than that, not a mark on him!

    1. Sunnygirl,
      it's a close one lol.
      He is unmarked and unharmed. Though he did seem to really solidify his belief that mom shouldn't be trusted around breakables, things that can fall, or anything that could possibly be tripped over...Besides legos.
