Here it is December 1st. I sent my first Christmas package off in the mail today. I have had 90% of my Christmas shopping done before Thanksgiving. It SNOWED so much that schools were all canceled. I didn't find a new job yet, but for the first Christmas in a long long time I feel... what's the word... Optimistic! I feel happy and I am looking forward to Christmas this year. I don't know what the difference is this year. Is it that I am only slightly less broke this year? Is it that I found some friends so I don't feel so lonely? Is it that I don't dread my job quite as much? Is it that I got some great presents and I hope my friends and family like them? I am not sure but happiness is definitely an improvement. I feel a little like George Bailey in It's a Wonderful life when his hope and he return to his life only to find that everything isn't so bad after all. "Merry Christmas, movie house! Merry Christmas, Emporium! Merry Christmas, you wonderful old Building and Loan!"
