My son just started playing Basketball league at the YMCA and is kicking butt -he is 11 and this is his first time to play organized B-Ball

I'm getting married to an awesome young lady in a few weeks.
I may have found a potential house to rent for a while that I can afford given my small stipend I get from school.
I have my Graduate school completely paid for by working as a Research assistant at the school.
God Loves me and works all things together for my good.
My school sent me to stay a week in another town to learn all about supercomputers and is paying hotel and per diem fees
Out of town but my Fiancee came up to visit and we had a fancy dinner and movie date.
I recently sold a jetski that I was paying 400$ a month on....so now I have 400$ freed up to spend on more important things.

and many more

The roofers got the new skylights in just BEFORE it started to rain yesterday.

I found fourteen dollars of freshly laundered currency in my pants pocket this morning.  Dryer sheets make your money smell nice.  I am tempted to write the US Mint and put forth the hypothesis that if the money supply smelled better it would help the economy.

It was announced yesterday, that we are hiring 40 new employees.  In the past month, we have hired over 200 people and are well in the black on our hiring vs. attrition rate.

Additionally, my team is expanding from 3 to 7 and possibly up to 9.  Our client is also going to be pulling work from a group in India and giving it to us.  Yes, work is being outsourced from India back to the United States.

Put our house on the market and got a full price offer from the first couple through on the first day - cleared the inspection last week and we're on track for an on time closing!

Sold for a price that made us happy as sellers and was a solid deal for the buyer - so I'm sleeping well!
