Sarah's Problems

I've been playing this game called What's the Phrase? and one of the categories is First World Problems.  I've been feeling very thankful after guessing such things, so I thought I'd post a list of My "Problems".  They may make you chuckle, but just think how blessed we are to have these types of 'problems'!

1.  Waiting in a line. Any line.  To get anything.  Like a soda or a car wash on onto a park ride.

2.  Getting my kids out of the house on time....to get to school or to dog training or to a play date or to the movies or to the park.

3.  Losing my keys....in my house to my cars. 

4.  My cell phone battery being low....so I can't play games so I don't miss calls.

5.  There's nothing good on TV or Netflix or AmazonPrime or in my DVD collection...that haven't seen or haven't read or have an interest in.

6.  The dim on my ebook isn't dim enough to read in the dark in my comfortable bed in my comfortable house.

7.  Waiting for my friends to play their turn on their smart phones so I can play some more.

8.  Doing laundry again!  and again!  In the washing machine that sits in my house.

9.  Doing dishes again!  and again!  By putting them in the dishwasher because we enjoyed another meal.

10.  Dropping my kids off on time to their two different (blue ribbon) schools, that are 4 miles away from my house so they can get the best FREE education out there for them.
