WHAT’S WORSE?

What’s worse? Going to your grandson’s

football game and they lose 41-0 or to

find out the team that beat them lost the

weekend before 41-7? You’re kidding!

What’s worse? Getting your car washed

and it rains on the way home?

What’s worse? Someone gives you a

5 pound box of dark chocolates and you

have to offer them to others because you

have serious and well established diabetes?

What’s worse? You quit a job you love

but they don’t pay enough. You get a new

job that pays you a  lot more - but then 

the first job calls and offers you a lot more

than what your new job pays you?

What’s worse? Your granddaughter has

twin girls and they name them after his

mom and her mother - both of whom

you can’t stand and don’t understand?

What’s worse? You don’t leave home

and you don’t mess up - and your younger

younger brother does - comes home -

is forgiven and he gets the hug and the

banquet and the dance and you feel you

never got nothing - no how - and never.

What’s worse? You work in the vineyard

from 9 to 5 - and the other guys and gals

only put in an hour or two and get the same

pay as you get? No way any of this is fair!
