Sunny Days Ahead

---

​This old gal…

Threw a tantrum…a humdinger of one…silently in her head…was cleaning the car…prepping for travel…when that adage she’s always lived by…rattled around…amidst those words…not printable…you get what you pay for…don’t have to have the top of the line for things…sometimes the generic or cheaper is best…but when it comes to some items…the cheapest…is not always…the wisest…

Lawnmowers…humidifiers…vacuums…one of us…looks at price…the other…looks at quality…needed a new vacuum…gave in…and bought El Cheapo…detest the thing…the attachments…do not work…so vacuuming the car…is impossible…took hours…steam pouring out the ears…wanted to throw this blobby old body on the driveway…and kick and pound…

But finishing up…this husband of mine…took the car for a wash…then took his wife…for a little retail therapy…where she began to relax…and smile…and realize…that life is good…frustration is short lived…and there are always…sunny days…ahead…
​
And this husband of mine…agrees…
