Though things haven't really been improving, especially due to the nature of our economy, I've found that my mood has been better and I've been more optimistic. Not happy, but just not sad either, which is good for now. Can't log on very much due to a busy schedule. I hope everyone is doing well and hanging in there. I'm really thankful for my uncle. Not only is he like a father to me, but he gives good, if simple, advice. When I ask how he deals with life, he says, "I've got no choice. I gotta just do the deal." No one else is going to do it.
