Unfortunately/Fortunately Silver Lining Thread

[EnglishRoseFox]

I was thinking about this a couple of weeks ago and then Ken gave me the idea in one of his posts.

In life some things stink, but I try and either see the good in the situation or turn a dire one into a good thing.

So here's what you do, mention something that is bad (either serious or lighthearted) and then something good that can or has come out of it.

Simple!!! I hope you will play with me.

Here we go:

Unfortunately My dog chewed a hole in my favourite pair of jeans this morning

FORTUNATELY it gives me the perfect excuse to go and get myself some new ones!!!



Who's next........?

Unfortunately Our niece peed all over the bed

[janeyl]

Oooh!! Oooh! Me next! Me next! Cock-eyed optimist that I am...........

Unfortunately I have had to spend the week off work with a trapped nerve in my shoulder (very painful-not to be recommended)

Fortunately-it meant that I've been able to watch the splendid British efforts in the Olympics AND I got to see my Spunky Monkey yesterday for some bonus time as well!

Unfortunately it's nearly time to leave to catch the bus...

This thread is going to turn me into Pollyanna! hehe

Unfortunately, it is hard to deal with at times.

Thanks for your kind words!

You are more than welcome and I am glad for the love and support you have

Unfortunately I am very indecisive about what to have for lunch

Fortunately I have hardly any food in the house so the choice is narrowed down a lot

back shortly, thank you to all that have played and I hope you continue to do so

 

[e-trance action]

Unfortunately I missed ERF and have to head out myself.

Fortunately I can leave a post telling her what a neat thread idea she had and that she deserves nibbles and kisses from someone whose affections she enjoys for such a great contribution.

Cheers, ERF

Unfortunately this made me very sad
Fortunately you have an amazing outlook and made me see there is much we can overcome.

[EnglishRoseFox]

UnfortunatelyI have a horrible stomach ache creeping up on me

FORTUNATELY I found my hot water bottle and know that this combined with sleep, whilst not as nice as a cuddle, will make it all better.

Goodnight Litsters, sweet dreams

 

[MollyDolly]

Unfortunately, my nap ran too long and has left me feeling groggy...

Fortunately, I awoke to a wonderful surprise in my inbox

 

[EnglishRoseFox]

Unfortunately the stomach ache has turned into a cold when I woke up this morning

FORTUNATELY the 2 miles I ran earlier cleared the cobwebs and has made me feel much better

 

[lovemonster]

Unfortunately, my neck and shoulders are aching terribly right now.

Fortunately, that means I can ask the old man for a nice massage when I get home..
