It is hard

Well, not only did we not sell the house, but there is a major leak in the basement which is going to cost significant money to fix.  we don't really have the money, but it is somehting we have to do.  so we will do it.  In the meantime, I am seriously worried about Bob.  this has been very hard on him.  He is already having troubles because the medicine he takes for his neuropathy has a side effect of depression, and this is not helping.  so we are keeping busy and trying to laugh our way through this.  I keep telling myself that we are extremely lucky and haven't really had any difficulties for a long thime.  this is just to remind us what it feels like when it is tough so that we can appreciate it when it gets better.  How is that for seeing the glass half full?
