We're often told we're lucky too - the Hubby because he can work at home (a choice he was able to make because he worked hard previously to allow him the freedom to not have to work for someone else), and me because I don't have to work. The Hubby worked hard and we have enough money that I don't have to work - but I did take care of our children and our house.Morgan Princehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11929878897599036944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-900246097326241068.post-51840978418295296692018-04-16T14:50:50.609+04:002018-04-16T14:50:50.609+04:00it sure is, we can choose the wrong route sometime...it sure is, we can choose the wrong route sometimes but it's how we deal with it and how we move forward that counts chickenrubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05731936852696584642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-900246097326241068.post-85155630270866412172018-04-12T18:43:05.701+04:002018-04-12T18:43:05.701+04:00For some unknown reason, this post turned up in my...For some unknown reason, this post turned up in my spam folder. I have no idea why! A friend of mine says that it's not what life throws at you, it's how you deal with what life throws at you. Not directly connected with luck but your post made me think of this. #AnimalTalesFancyingfrancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13188905043631051759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-900246097326241068.post-83812147271164579222018-04-10T19:54:21.697+04:002018-04-10T19:54:21.697+04:00fortunate is a better way but still in my mind und...fortunate is a better way but still in my mind undermines a lot of hard workchickenrubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05731936852696584642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-900246097326241068.post-2973011622262565762018-04-07T20:33:20.461+04:002018-04-07T20:33:20.461+04:00I agree hard work pays off, maybe saying you'r...I agree hard work pays off, maybe saying you're lucky is the wrong word... fortunate is perhaps better way to describe your successes?<br />Thank you for sharing this with us at #TriumphantTales.

I'm sure people think I'm lucky for living in a pretty big house, but like your husband, my husband has worked extremely hard for us to afford that house. He took a gamble and started his own business and it could just have easily gone the other way and we could have ended up losing our house.SarahMummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04103870858666628645noreply@blogger.com
