Making Lemonade out of Lemons

Sometimes life throws you lemons.

Like for instance...

A particular U2 concert that you have been dying to see gets cancelled. (Sorry about your back Bono, get better real soon so I can perch myself in the stadium and watch you with glee.)

or...

You booked an awesome hotel room for said concert date. An awesome NONREFUNDABLE hotel room.

or...

Your husband injures himself by taking a nasty, nasty fall and needs crutches to get around for several weeks.

What do you do about all this???

You take the kids to grandma's house for the night (Thanks Grandma!), put the crutches and hubby in the car, drive to the big city to take advantage of the awesome hotel room regardless of concert being cancelled, throw open the curtains and stare at the amazing sights from sixteen floors up, enjoy being cooped up in the ultra mod-four star opulence with your very best friend, find yourself laughing at a shoebox full of vintage pictures of your hubby from his youth (Thanks Grandma!), venture out into the city to enjoy a delicious dinner and potent cocktails, retreat to room 1654 to relax and sleep the night away knowing that even though life deals you small blows, you and your hubs will make the most of it and be happy no matter what!
