Good news and bad news............


If someone tells you they have good news and bad news, which do you want first? As i think back on times I have encountered this question, I have always wanted the good news first. Now I wonder why that is. I guess if you get good news, that puts you in a good mood. If you are in a good mood then bad news doesn't seem so bad. But think about it this way. If you the bad news first, you can be bummed for a few minutes, but when you get the good news it makes up for the bad news. Therefore you are in a great mood and the bad news is forgotten. If you get the bad first, nothing dampers the good. So which do you prefer to get first, the good or the bad? 

So my good news for the week is that my Celiac's test came back negative. I immediately bought chocolate chip cookies and had several. The bad news is they still don't know what is causing my iron deficiency anemia. I am not sure if that is terribly concerning news, because I have been dealing with this for several years. 

Other good news is that I am flying home for the holiday weekend.  I am at the airport as I speak........or type. To all my Georgia peaches...........see you soon!!
