I know the feeling. My friend and I were talking about depressing parts of our lives at lunch today and the waitress overheard us, so she brought us free little ice cream sundaes. It was very sweet and she definitely got a good tip for that. So, that made my day!

I agree that life is what you make it. In these times, it might be a hard phrase to go by, but I feel as long as I'm doing everything I can to better my life, it will pay off.. eventually.

Hope things start looking up for you!
