And by things I mean me. 
I know the recession is hard on everyone, and some of my closest friends have been hit. They seem to be better for it, so if they’re not complaining, I’m not going to be upset about it either. I’m happy if they are, plain and simple.
Yesterday, I saw the new Harry Potter movie, and as luck would have it, my SCENE card covered it. I like free surprises. The movie was excellent, aside from a few cell phones. No need to rant about that, I believe I covered it the first time.
I won the lottery. That felt pretty good. Got a second job, in a way. My company made me feel valued by asking me to help out other teams. I don’t have to work extra hours unless I want to, I keep my existing job and responsibilities, and my work load increases.
I’m happy about this though. I feel needed. Tons of people out there are being let go and any of us still hanging on to our jobs, don’t have a lot of security. I’m grateful that I can help out.
I have everything I could ask for, a loving husband, cherished friends, and a mother who has more heart than anyone I know. So while I’m appreciative of what I have and think that life can’t get a whole lot better, I’m proven wrong!
Is anyone else as excited about this as I am?
And as a side note, I had another wicked, awesome dream about Matt Giraud last night. Since it’s been a while since I posted something about him, I figure there’d be no harm in adding it here.
