7 Problems That Appear Unsolvable
The older I get, the more I realise that if you look hard enough or put a little more effort, you will find a solution to almost any problem. You do eventually learn how to do grown up things like budget money, clean a mirror and lose your keys less than once a month. That being said, there are some problems that just don’t seem to have solutions.
1. Missing socks. You can turn your house upside down but you are not going to find that missing sock.
2. Eating enough vegetables to please your mother. You could consume 30 plates of broccoli in one sitting and she would still say you need to learn to eat healthy.
3. Frizzy hair. No matter how strong this year’s hair products claim to be, they are no match for the humidity that Mother Nature likes to impose upon us.
4. Getting good customer service from your telecom provider. It does not matter if you are super nice or if you threaten to sue them. You will still end your phone call wishing you could throw your phone at them.
5. Flat beer. Adding Coke or more beer does not somehow bring flat beer back to life.
6. Broken Zippers. No matter how hard you try, you are not going to get that zipper to function again.
7. Being clawed by cats in the same room. You can feed a cat, give it catnip and even it spoil it rotten with toys, but you still cannot guarantee going home scratch-free.

Definitely in agreement with the frizzy hair one. I have tried tons of products but I have never had a good hair day in the humid tropical climate I am in. Great post 🙂
I have so many odd socks in my drawer now, I’m thinking of starting a dating agency for them so they get to go out a bit more often. Just can’t bring myself to sending them up to the big shock heaven in the sky.
How about ” Where do dust bunnies and Irish Lace on the ceiling come from?”.
If you ignore the overall number of socks you have, you can say you have gained an extra sock after laundry. This magical process takes the extra lint in the dryer and sews you a new sock! Congrats! Just put it aside until the next load, you’ll have a matching one for it soon! (If only the dryer could make it the same size and color.)
Missing socks should be added to the old saying about death and taxes.
I hate to admit it but I’ve lost a sock while wearing them, along with undies and earrings! blush,blush… They vanished into thin air!
I’ve lost socks before (from washer to dryer) and found the odd one months later balled up in a corner, inside a Duvet cover! It was a flannel cover that was washed/dried and then put away for the season. So check your linen closet! and if you still can’t find them, look behind and beside your appliances and your dogs toy box!.
Missing socks – yes. I’ve even lost pairs of pants.
Dare I ask if you were wearing them when you lost them?
Ahhh, the zipper issue. I busted the bottom out of my favorite winter coat in January. I can get it to work temporarily, then it explodes bottom up again. I’m in denial about retiring it. 😦
