5 Things I Am Grateful For...
1. Had an awesome time Halloween night at "A Victorian Haunting Experience", held at the McFadden Ross House in Dearborn! Met some great people, had my tea leaves read, won a $20 Lulu gift card AND scrumptious acai chocolate, heard some interesting Dearborn ghost stories ...a terrific night!

2. Turned 45 last week and had a great birthday dinner at Angelo's in Westland. Ate French Onion Soup (with extra cheese of course!), baked gnocchi, and some of the most incredible rolls my mouth ever tasted! Scrumptious! Chuck called on my birthday to wish me a happy one and I received a package from Texas, thank you Kristie!

3. I'm in the midst of a three-day week-end! We set the clocks back an hour yesterday which means I get an extra hour on my week-end off! That makes me feel even wiser for choosing Sunday as a vacation day!

4. It's a brand new month! Happy November! It's beautiful outside -crisp, clear and calm. Fallen leaves are blanketing the ground ready to be raked. Christmas songs will soon be playing on the radio.

5. I received a great work check last week after winning top bonus (an extra $175!) and having a wee bit of overtime!
