Positive stress, yes, that's what I'm trying to think. Just trying to laugh/smile at any setbacks, troubles, stresses. We'll get moved. We're so blessed that it's all working out and nothing is going to dampen that (please remind me that I said that if/when I complain about it during the next two months!)

Glad your dad is doing OK; sorry about your unexpected bills. Did you completely pay off one bill (like a big dr. bill)? If so, there's your problem.

For several years, in our family, whenever we paid off a dr bill, something else costing big $$ came up. When our daughter broke her arm I put off paying off the complete amount for months, just paying part each months, because I was afraid something else would come up. I hope your big bills are done for awhile!

Fortunately dad is in the hospital under the NHS so no bill there but it is the little things that are not covered that cost such as telephone/TV costs which I suspect will work out something like 10.00 pounds per day plus the cost of getting up to the hospital to visit though local petrol costs in the UK are very high just under 5.00 pounds sterling a gallon, I have to smile when I hear Americans complaining about your gas prices we would love them here in the UK.

As you hardly get any fresh fruit in hospital I will have to take some in to Dad tomorrow.
