"How's your day going?" the cashier at the hardware store asked me yesterday.
"Well," I replied. "I guess this could be one of the best days of my life."
"Wow, something really great must have happened!"
"No, not really. I'm just buying some stuff, the sun is shining, the car's working great, I don't have a lot to do today, I had a nice breakfast, I'll be taking a dip in the pool this afternoon. It's the kind of day I've been working my whole life for, so I think this actually qualifies as one of the best days of my life."
"Hey I never thought about it like that before." she said. "That's a good way of looking at it."
"Yup."

Re: The best day of my life
I came across this page while looking for a way to get in touch you both of you. I was recently dreaming and browing the home exchange and came across your beautiful and amazing home in P.E.I. and I wanted to tell you just how amazed I was with it. So I found this site and read your comments and I was immediately lighter in spirit. I must say the two of you seem to be the definition of life and living. Congratualtion to both of you for conquering this life and living it to it's fullest. The both you seem to have so much energy, life and the desire to enjoy every part of it, from the smallest to the most extravegant. Thank you for sharing a small part of that with me and for making me smile and putting a warmth from my toes to my head.
Ahhhhhhh, was so excited typing the last comment that when I finally hit send and read it over realized how many typing errors I had... my appologies. Usually read everything over as spelling/typing errors are my pet peve. Sorry
