Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.

I so appreciate all of your comments for my last blog entry. I was just so shocked, hurt, betrayed and humiliated. It colored my whole sunny day into a deep shade of grey. I am so grateful and glad I turned to my dad to help me with this. He really did an amazing job of standing up for me.

I am this amazing organized and smart person but there are just some situations that knock me off my proverbial feet and I just don't handle them well. The only seeming thick skin I have is on my feet.

Though not right now. As a treat to myself, I went and got my hair, feet and hands done. It was just lovely and just what I needed. It was also just in time as my date is Sunday. With all that was going on to bring me down, I haven't had a chance to call my lawyer back but plan to Friday night. I really enjoyed our first talk and we seem to have a number of interests in common. Plus, he seems to be a truly genuine guy. A very rare breed... or at least as far as I know.

I will be busy Saturday with the branch birthday party. It feels like it will end up being a really good time. We are going to have storytellers, a Tae Kwon Dao exhibition and medieval fighting. We are also going to have a fire engine and cake. All the things you need to have a truly spectacular time.

Okay totally bushed so good night and cake makes the world go round : ) P.S. The title was my fortune for tonight from Hot Wok.
