Why do I always push my deadlines to the very last minute? Why is there so much laundry to be done in my house? Why do my kids put empty packages of lunch meat back in the fridge? Why do the cats pee under my desk? Why did my new toaster work yesterday but doesn’t work today? Why don’t I input my debits into my check register right away instead of walking around with 50 receipts falling out of my wallet? Why am I not independently wealthy? WHY WHY WHY?
:wall:

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....

Why am I the only one who can put phones on chargers?
Sorry you have the flu, Melissa. I had it a few weeks back, and KNOW I had Bird flu/swine flu/Hong Kong flu/west nile/Type ABC….Could barely get out of bed to go to the bathroom. But I had to…toilet papper roll had run out.

Why finding kanjis from a dictionary is so difficult?
Why can’t I find again that Japanese internet page where you could draw the kanjis and with a push of a button you could find out what it means and how you are supposed to pronounce it? :wall:

But you are certainly not alone with the Why questions, and there never seems to be a sensible answer…….

Why am I the only one who loads/empties the dishwasher, takes out the trash, folds/hang the laundry? Why do two reasonably intelligent, physically capable teen-aged boys have to be told to do chores? Can they not see what needs to be done and pull a Nike and JUST DO IT?????

Why do I still have this darned cough after more than five weeks, especially because now my back is even hurting more than before?
Why do I can’t get Artithemtic in my head and why do I have to learn it, although I want to become teacher for German, English & History and definitely not Math?

Why do I waste so much time doing “research”?
Why are there so many stupid people in the world?
Why do fools fall in love?

Why am I not independently wealthy? – I ask that question everyday!
Why are there so many stupid people in the world? – I would love to know the answer to that one!
Why are there always so many clothes to wash when it’s only my husband and me now?
Why am I still spending so much at the grocery store and on utilities?
Hope you feel better soon, Melissa!

Why can’t I ever figure out what I want to fix for dinner? I hate to cook.
Why can’t I ever get these boxes packed so I can get this room painted. This book is just too good to put down. Then I have some more books in my TBR pile I just have to read…Go figure.

Why do all of these whys sound so familiar?
And why do they all have to happen on the busiest days of my week?
And why does it all coincide with days That Man has to work late?

Since I’m getting older I have a few questions about that too.
Why is my ass still fat, but no it’s flat?
Where did all of these old age spots come from on the underneath side of my arm? If they fill in will it look like I have a tan?
Why does it never fail that when I’m having a good day and feeling good, someone will always say: “how are you feeling? you don’t look so good.”

Why do I have a cold?
Why did my nephew decide to draw a roller coaster on the wall with crayon?
Why did I trip over my TBR pile and end up with a big bruise and sore wrist?
Why does the weather keep changing here…freezing one day…boiling the next?

Why is the universe so big?
Why are bananas yellow?
Why can’t I think of a good answer to type here?

Why can’t I keep everything neat?
Why can’t I even get organized?
Why don’t I even have enough energy to write letters or at least without pain?
Why can’t I find a job I can do so that I can have at least a bit of jam with my bread and butter?
Why do I have so much clutter and junk?
Why do I have this thirst for knowledge even if it’s totally trivial?
Well, I could go on in this vein, but I’m sure nobody really wants to know.

I’ve got stuff in boxes, but they’re all downstairs higgledy-piggledy with some not even marked. Just a small matter of several hundred boxes in which I have to find dozens of things that I desparately need. Why couldn’t my supposed helpers do the job I had to pay them for? AARGH

Why do I have to have arthritis? Why do people I don’t really know choose me to confide stuff I don’t even want to know to?:talktothehand: Why can’t I win the lottery so I can get a better car?
On the other hand:
What did I do to deserve the greatest grandchildren? Why did my children finally get it right and marry the best daughter-in-law and son-in-law? I am truly blessed, so I try not to question the negative stuff too much. Hope you feel better Melissa. Have a great weekend everyone and Hugs to all.:wave:

Why do I get up in the morning thinking “I’ll write loads today” and when it gets to 4.30pm I’ve still done nothing?
Why am I the only one who thinks it’s a good idea to fold the clothes that I’ve just pulled out of the dryer, and not leave them in a tangled and still-damp heap in the middle of the floor?
Why does my dog feel the need to lie on my laptop while I’m trying to write?
Why do I not have enough time to catch up on my reading?
Why are we never happy?! :roll: :mrgreen:

But here are a few of my questions:
- Why doesn’t a day count more than 24 houres, so I can read more?
- Why am I not able to put my ideas for stories on paper?:wall:
- Why do people not speak to me for days and then invite me all on the same day?:wigglebrow:
- Why is there no answer to those why-questions?:hissyfit:

And why does your bookstore stock every writer you could think of except for the one you are looking for, namely Suzanne McMinn(this probably applies to Irish bookstores only)
And why does Sunday disappear when Monday drags on forever?8O
