Just A Little Bit of Luck . . .

. . . at some point.

That’s all we need right now.

My girlfriend and I have been going through quite a few tough times lately.  Not with our relationship, but rather events in general surrounding us.  It doesn’t help matters that pretty much all of those events are out of our control.

For a moment I was actually believing that something good was on its way.  There were a brief series of good events, a minor setback or two, a full day in the hospital on Easter Sunday, and then slow progress and improvement this week.

And then in the mail today — BAM!  More bad news.

There was no explanation for it.  No reasoning behind it.  Just plain old bad news.  It’s hard to blame it on bad luck since this kind of news has been semi-frequent for the past few months.  It’s just that this particular case seems so odd since the events leading up to it went so well.

Throw in the fact that today is Friday the 13th and there you go.  While I’m a superstitious person with some events, I don’t consider this to be an evil day in general.

At some point we need a little bit of good luck to help us out of this rut.  That’s all.  We can make the rest of it work from there.

Until then, it’s time to keep working on the problem(s) and see if any positive solutions materialize.
