The Story of My Life

I am picky. Or says my mother. What can I say? I know what I like when I like it. I know it when I don't. Though this is often a double-edged sword. The good? I really like the items I find. The bad? More often than not the things I want are beyond my reach.

Example: after searching for years for a bedroom set I found the one I wanted. New World Concepts Dakota series. Just needed to save the money. Fast forward to the day when I could afford the bedroom set. It is no longer made. Story of my life.

Example: after searching for all kinds of great bridal shower gifts I find some on Amazon.uk. Put them in the basket and .... they don't ship those types of items internationally. Story of my life.

Example: after searching for wall art that I am willing to look at more than once I find some on a UK shop website. Put them in the basket and .... they don't ship those types of items internationally. Story of my life.

Example: after searching for just the right PowerPoint graphic for a presentation to Senior Leadership team at the company I work for I find out that the perfect graphic can only be acquired by purchasing a graphic package. That package costs $159.00. Story of my life.

Example: dating. Story of my life. Nuff' said.

Sigh.
