Can't win for losing!

After 4 years of babying my rusted out swamp cooler through the summers, I finally bought a new swamp cooler this year.  Of course this would be the year that is so wet and cold that I haven't needed to use it yet.  The first warm time comes along and I need to call for service.  It keeps shutting off before cooling the condo down!

That is about how things seem to go.  It is hard to remember the good things that have happened and not keep going over the bad.  But, barring the bad things, I have a pretty good life. 

I have a place to call home, that is warm and dry (and soon to be cool). 
I have a car that gets me where I am going. 
I have not just one job, but two jobs that are keeping the bills paid.  Thank goodness and I can't wait until
        I'm totally out of debt.
I have food to eat and I'm able to feed the girls.
For my age, my health is reasonably good.
I have a good family who cares and helps me out.
I have two beautiful and healthy girls (Shadow and Pepin), that keep me laughing and busy.

Why is it easier to remember the bad things, when there is so much good in my life.  Is it because I concentrate on the bad in the belief that EVERYTHING in my life should be good?  Boy, is that illogical!
