Life Is Good

This year is getting crazier. It's September 1st already. 2009 is almost over and I'm just getting used to saying it.

So recently ........

It seems fertility is in the air. I have several friends popping out little ones in the next few months. I'm just glad I don't have to go through the pain but can still get my fix buying them all cutesy things. There isn't enough money in the world for me to buy all the fun stuff I'd want to buy if I had a child. Maybe it's a good thing I don't.

It seems quitting your job is also in the air. Again, several friends, family and acquaintances are walking away from jobs, my father included. I'm happy for him. For all of them. Especially if they're lucky to find something better. I don't have the guts to do that just yet. But I like my job, so maybe that's why.

It seems spending money is in the air as well. Friends are buying fancy ladders and new cars. We got a new tv, other friends got new windows and are going on vacations. Recession? What recession?

It seems healthy living and weight-loss are in the air. I have a few friends who are also on the healthy kick and making vows to treat their bodies better. That's always fun. Especially when you have good company to enjoy while exercising and discussing recipes. It's nice to know that I'm learning to make new things, while still staying within my limits. I like that.

This has been one of the fastest years of my life. But it's also been one of the greatest so far. I think I say that every year. Life is good.
