You know, I've realized that a lot of my posts lately have been...how shall we say it? Kind of depressing. A lot has been going on in the past few months. Two hurricanes, an unexpected brush with death and a hospital stay, the death of a friend...not the most upbeat type of news.
But you know what? I really consider myself a very lucky person. Yeah, we had two hurricanes but I survived. My home made it through without a lot of damage. I might have been in the hospital, but the alternative would have been a lot worse. So many people don't have homes. So many people lost loved ones. This place is still torn up and it's not going to get better over night. But every day it gets a little better. Everyday there are more signs of things returning to something resembling a normal life.
I'm going to continue to post news that is not all happy and cheerful. I'm going to continue to rant and rave about what is going on. I'm going to continue to feel overwhelmed sometimes.
But I just wanted everyone to know...I am one lucky s.o.b.! I have my home, my family, my friends. (Yes, I lost one recently but I would rather honor his life than belabor his death. I mourn him, but he lived a good life and that's the best we can ask for.) What more can someone ask for?

You have a very good outlook, just remember that it is ok to acknowledge the bad things when they happen. In a way, it make us more appreciative of the good things. Plus, you have Buffy the Wonder Dog! =)
(And trust me, I know all about depressing posts lately. I swear it's 'in the stars' or something.)
