Daily Disappointment

Why is it that people can't keep their word? When they say they will do something, why do they then turn around a day or three later and say, "oh yes I know I said I would do that, but I have changed my mind."? And why is it always business that it affects? I am trying to start up my own business and I get clients, who are all gungho about using my services, I talk to them about the advantages of using a company to do the hard work for them, the ease of getting the work done, and they are all gung ho! "Yes yes" they cry, and then nothing, no contact that was promised. Or as just happened to me yesterday, I had even written up a quote for this one company, set it all out, started to work on the conceptual basis, and then they turn around and say, "oh we have decided to wait until after Christmas now." I just know that they will continue to put me off until I give up asking. Well I guess it was a good idea, it just isn't going to come to anything.

So I now have to come up with another money spinning idea. Perhaps I can shovel snow for the neighbours, 10 bucks a time for the paths. Do you think I would make much? LOL No me either.

But the sun is shining, glistening off the snow in the garden, there is little or no wind, so I will walk over to the pharmacy to pick up a fresh supply of medication, and buy some chocolate on the way home, then veg with Dr. Phil and Oprah this afternoon. Oh but wait, I have to clean the stove, and cook supper, which reminds me I have to get the chicken out of the freezer. Hmm, well perhaps I can still get some sofa time in, in between the chores. Ain't life great?

If you have 5 bucks, or even a loony to spare, please send it my way, all donations gratefully received.

Thanks.
