Reason for Everything

So isn't there something that says there is a reason for everything? Well about 2 months ago we had a message pop up on our 3 year old $2000+ television that we had just paid off before the interest free financing ended that said the projection lamp was nearing the end of it's life and we needed to replace it. The lamp that is supposed to last longer and of course the warranty we bought ran out after 2 years. Yeah, that TV. Well yesterday the lamp finally decided to give in to it's horrible whim to go out. You know what else happened this weekend? My garage sale. The one that I made $80 at? Yeah, well when dear hubby looked on EBAY for a projection lamp and it costs $81 you know that everything happens for a reason. So hopefully the lamp does the trick and we will have our TV up and running again in no time. Until then we will be watching TV on our baby TV and wishing we had our gigantic one to watch. Oh well. What can you do?
