Well I have a lot of thanks today as I count my blessings. Matt was so sweet and gave me a gift card to the movies because he really wanted me to see "The Help". I did go and I enjoyed it a lot, especially the popcorn jejejeje. The movie was engaging, not life changing but certainly plenty to think about but also plenty to enjoy.
Kym surprised me with a pair of tickets to the movies. What a great treat to pop open the mail and have something wonderful like that mixed in with the bills. I thought about it though. My nephew is turning 10 this week and I had no money to get him a present, so I mailed the tickets to him. I know he loves the movies - who doesn't and it made me super happy to still be able to give him a present. It made me enjoy those tickets more than if I actually used them to see a movie. Kym you are lovely.
Last night I went out with a friend that I used to work with. We had dinner in Escondido, he insisted on paying. I was very appreciative but still kicked in a buy one get one half off coupon that I had. I got prime rib! It was so goooood. It totally makes me worry about weigh in on Monday but it was worth it! Later I suggested that we go to the casino since I know he LOVES the casinos and it would be entertaining for me to just hang out. He made me take $40 to play with. Truthfully, that made me feel very, very awkward. We ended up playing 3 card poker - which although a card game, it is more a game of chance than skill. It was fun and we played for 2 hours. I ended up leaving with $60! I gave him back the $40 he let me play with. I wanted to give him the entire $60 but he refused.
Tomorrow the hunt starts again. But I certainly can't knock the good things that I had to count today. This is very positive.
