FIB, I'm so glad you had such a good day today....definitely sounds like you had fun! Glad you got some "good" news today, too!
My son is in Boy Scouts. He just made 2nd Class last week! He is hoping to be an Eagle Scout one day. Last year was his last year racing in the Pine Derby races. It's amazing how involved the parents get with those things!
Please try to continue to find as much pleasure as you can in life...it's always there, sometimes we just have to work a little harder to find it!
