The Sum of All Fears

One day there was a knock at the front door, I opened it up and was almost floored, it was all my in-laws with all their belongings saying, "Hope you don't mind, but were moving in for a couple of months, on account of us failing to pay our back rent.. wer'e so blessed to have you in this family, you are heaven sent!" Needless to say, they eventually took over and my husband didn't mind, but after 1 year, I was about to lose mine! So I moved out with some of my stuff, and am happy although down on my luck, as I sing along to a song on my car radio and look out my window, living in a van down by the meadow.
