I'm pretty much even keel.

A friend dropped me a note today. And said that I sound even more happy than usual. Hmmmm. I don't know if that's true. It's been a long time since I've been sad. Or unhappy. And if I ever go into the doldrums it rarely last for more than a day or two. Seems to me that I have to be happy. Or content with my life. I become annoyed with the state of politics and the economy. But I recognize that I can't do anything about it. So I don't let it get me down. Instead, I focus on the things that make me happy. Mainly being in love. And the fact that I'll soon be off to Italy. Maybe that makes me more happy than usual. But I'm pretty much even keel. In a relatively steady good mood. --Jim Broede
