Karma...Ain't it a bitch!

I really should not wish ill will on anyone...but sometimes I cannot help myself. The tool from South Carolina who cut me off, slammed on his brakes and gave me the finger was pulled over by a good ole boy in a black & white less than 2 minutes later. The crazy pit bull lady in my neighborhood who runs with her dog's leash around HER neck jogging smack in to a parked Explorer after yelling at me for looking scared at her dog running freely 25 yards away from her. Don't get me wrong, I have had my fair share of moments where I know I was being "paid back" for a wrongdoing or evil thought. I am by no means perfect. This knowledge does not stop me from getting more than the teeniest, tiniest bit of pleasure out of the fact that I am pretty damned happy with my life right now, while the jerks of the world get what is coming to them. Yes, I wish I had Elle McPherson's legs (as I am sure Shane does too) and a house that was paid off (again, I am pretty sure Shane would not mind that either...), but other than that, I truly have no complaints.

Time for a brag session:

1. Husband who loves me
2. Two freaking adorable daughters
3. Health
4. Roof over my head
5. Both of us are gainfully employed
6. Great family
7. Fantastic friends
8. I still have all of my teeth, hair & limbs
9. I am within 6 pounds of being lighter than I have been in 5 years!
10. A new deck that can be seen from space
11. Cute purple shoes that do not hurt my feet....That in itself is reason to celebrate!
12. 82 degrees in February...puff clouds and blue skies

I am definitely tempting fate with that last one. I need to stop there. I really must have paid some dues over the past decade to deserve everything I mentioned and everything I haven't. I need to start being more grateful for everything I have. So if you hear me bitching about the dog peeing on the carpet (which needs to get replaced anyways), or about how my ass seriously needs to stop muffin-topping out of the back of my jeans, or about how I want to go postal at the Estes headquarters, or about anything else...remind me that my life could be a lot worse...at least my picture is not being passed for a Redneck woman mugshot (that one is for Dana, LaRae, & Shanna--God Bless 4-wheeling!!).
