Gratitude Day 17

I realize many of my gratitude posts have been more somber and serious. Though it has been a couple of tough weeks, I don't want any of you to think I have lost my optimism or hope. I'm still me. Just taking steps into the darkness and waiting for the light to guide my way.

1- My aunt's laugh. Tonight my aunt invited my sister and I to her house to have dinner with her family. My cousin is in town and getting ready to move to London (again) so this was a way to see him before he left town. As we sat and talked and laughed I couldn't help but admire my aunt's happiness and joy for life. The icing on the cake though is her laugh. Anytime she is laughing, you are laughing with her. It was great to be with the Perry family tonight.

2- Scotcharoos. For those of you who have never had this dessert, you are missing out. Delicious! I love them! They have incredibly addictive substances in them called chocolate and peanut butter and butterscotch. Oh how life seems better when you have had a scotcharoo.

3- Informational interviews that turn into full time offers. Though nothing has been officially signed, hope exists. The CEO that I spoke with last week may have a position for me at the beginning of the new year. Many changes are happening in life and switching jobs seems to be in the mix.

That sounds like some exciting news! I'm anxious to hear how that pans out.
