The Secret

For those of you who are unfamiliar with "The Secret", it's a good movie that is basically about the law of attraction. NO, not THAT kind. It means that you get what you think about the most. If you constantly worry about debt, that's where you'll find yourself. If you constantly think about how great it is to save money, that's where you'll find yourself. That being said, I realized the other night that I had unintentionally attracted the strange circumstances of our last move. I had for years been saying that the next time we move I wasn't going to pack much of anything but would have someone else do it. I also stated that I would not load the truck or unload it. I even went so far as to say that I wouldn't do much cleaning at either the old or new house and I wasn't going to unpack anything either. I was simply going to direct where it went. Sadly, that's pretty much what happened. I had meant that it would be movers doing it for me as I paid them, but instead it was Andrew as I was working and going to school full-time while he was at home doing schooling, but not working. I then became very ill as you all remember I'm sure. After we got here, someone else scrubbed the bathrooms for me and Andrew did most of the putting away himself because I was too weak. Looking back it's kinda funny, and we were both able to laugh about it, but as we went through it, I know neither of us found it humorous in any way.

I guess the old adage is true, be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it.
