Love/Hate
Some things you have a love/hate relationship with. You know... you might love to eat a whole bag of M&M's or Twix but hate what they do to your waist or your love your kids but hate hearing the tattles... you love your new car but hate the new car payment... you love your job but hate your boss. You know what I'm talking about.
We bought a boat a few years back and I fell in love with it. Not as much as I love my husband because as I tell him everyday, I love him THE MOST. But still... our Maxum was beautiful. It was well set up down below and up top and our family could sleep on at night during our trips to the lake with extended family. What I hated was that it only worked properly for us the first year. After that it broke down trip after trip after trip. It would have more productive for me to flush money down the toilet. Our boat was named Crossing Borders but I renamed it the Floating Bed or FB for short - that's all it became good for. Well, on my birthday we sold it and now have a new boat that I hope is not going to be the FB II. My fingers are crossed that the new boat will be a love/love relationship. It is working beautifully so far (of course I have not stepped on board yet). We all know what happens with me and anything that has any electrical components. Still it was time to say goodbye to Crossing Borders on Friday. Maybe with a newer, faster boat I'll be able to get Brett back on the molecule again....NOT!

Good bye FB, we had some good times in Navajo Canyon, bobbing outside the slips at sunset, and the times you would go over 20mph. Good times!
FB can also stand for "face breaker" which is another good reason to say goodbye. ;)
I am sure the new boat will bring nothing but happiness and joy!
