Our Bad Luck

Matt and I had a lot of bad luck last summer. To start the summer off, Matt was laid off the day after we bought our new boat. Two weeks after buying the boat, I jackknifed the trailer backing it down the boat ramp, and broke the winch off, so we had to dock the boat at a friends house until we got the wich replaced. Later in the summer my jeep suffered a hit and run in front of our house, the next week Matts truck got hit by a box truck in the Bass Pro Shop parking lot. Needless to say, we were hoping for a less eventful summer this year. Unfortunately, the black cloud has followed us! Last Sunday, my Jeep broke down in the Target parking lot. We had to wait 2 hours to have it towed. Then, today Matt was on the lake fishing with some friends on Lake Lanier and the boat motor wouldn't start. Matt had to troll (at about 2 miles an hour) for over 2 hours to get the boat to our friends, Frank and Natasha, house. They have become our safe haven when we are on the lake!! I'm really beginning to think that we need to start wearing helments, because who knows waht may fall out of the sky next!!
