Oh yeah - who's laughing now Mr. "We have this yucky wet stuff...." ??
Of course I'm just kidding around. I'll post pics of the 5 foot snow banks lining my entire sidewalk and driveway - that'll cheer you up.
Other than that, you have the right idea - focus on the things that are good. Sounds like you are financially secure and while that isn't everything, it's pretty damn good. It certainly makes it easier to move forward in the areas you feel are lacking.
Or...compare yourself to the less fortunate. I watched my neighbor load all his possessions in a U-haul the other day. Apparently another victim of foreclosure. Pretty damn sad watching he, his wife, and 3 kids leave their home behind 2 days before Christmas.
Haven't been a fan of Xmas for the last 2 decades. Now it's more hassle than anything else.
