2/21 Expressions

Today I received a $20 GC/Birthday card from a local restaurant. The food is great - but a bit pricey. "Back in the day" (before economic troubles) - a reservation was necessary. Thinking hardly anyone would be there - we just went on a whim. We did get a table - but you could hardly tell there's any kind of economic trouble because the place was packed. I have yet to look at our investment/retirement portfolio - it is depressing enough just listening to the news - but "getting out" I realized that I need to put things into perspective. There are still many things to be grateful for.
