What's Got Us Bummed Out?

I misread one of Mama Kat's Workshop prompts last week, thinking it said "Why are you bummed out?" but in fact it said "Why are you burned out?"  So, anyhow, in a sense this post was inspired by her.  I don't do much ranting on here so if you don't want to listen to my little annoying problems that are bumming me out, I understand.  You have been warned.

Here's the things that bummed me out:

My DVD Project: I took off three days from work last week to put together a couple DVDs from my video clips and home movies but didn't see two of my movie scenes. One was of my dad playing with me in my jail tent. He was the prisoner trying to escape and I was the sheriff. I see the tent but am missing that part. The other was a Christmas scene of us kids playing with our puppet stage and marionettes. I'm hoping these were on a reel that just wasn't marked properly so I didn't have iMemories go ahead with the transfer. Overall, I am very pleased and look forward to getting my DVDs for Christmas.  It's a lot of work though but kind of fun!

Back to Work--Overtime: I loved having that time off and so of course am a little bummed out that I have to go back to work today. Although, the good news is that it's a short work week AND I am getting out early today, Tuesday and Wednesday so I can walk Abby at her normal time because Gerard has to work overtime those days so he can have off Thanksgiving and Friday. Naturally, that's got him bummed out.

Football Sunday: Yesterday the Browns game was disappointing once again. With six turnovers, you would think they would win easily, but no. Our offense couldn't do anything. They lead into the 4th quarter but gave up a TD in the last few minutes and could not score after that. At least the Patriots beat the Colts in a close game!

Yahoo Mail:   My email was goofy for awhile last week but seems to be back to normal now.  I am so glad!  It wasn't filling in the TO: field automatically, the font was huge and it looked ugly and was annoying to me.  When I forwarded an email, it appeared in a tiny box I had to scroll down to see and the recipient's message was formatted all wrong. 

Now on a more positive note:

I am participating in the Blog Jog that started yesterday and the Fantastic Followers Giveaways hop with my other two blogs so I will be off my normal routine this week.

So, what's got you bummed out lately?  Anything?  Go ahead and share about your troubles in a comment.  I know these are all minor things and I will certainly not dwell on any of them.

Not one thing has me bummed out at the moment. Personally that is.

If you want to talk about the federal government then we could go on and on.

Have a terrific day Karen. :)

Wow, I guess everything is all well for my readers here. I'm the only one bummed out on things. My email is normal at home, but if I check it from work, then it's all goofy still. Hmpf. Glad things are going well for everyone!

Sorry about your Browns :(

What bums me out is that I am STILL itching after wearing a new outfit without washing it last Saturday. It's better, but still not gone! GRRR

Happy Thanksgiving, Karen! :)
