Rank 100! Day went from Bad to a smile!

I know the ranks aren't a huge deal, but I was super excited to log on this morning and be 100 :) It made me smile, which I needed today.

I had plans to sign up for yearly with the black friday special, it was going to be a gift to myself. Unfortunately the universe had different plans. On Friday my car broke down and yesterday I found out it will cost a little over $700 to fix. This of course did not make my day, but I do like to think positive. We have saved up a little bit of money the last 6 months so we could have a blow out Christmas. It was seriously going to be an over indulgence of gifts to ourselves for all we had accomplished this year. And to send some great gifts to family. This car expense definitely changes those plans.

The positive part is that we saved up a bit over the amount it cost to fix the car. If I hadn't listened to my gut and instead did some shopping from home online Thursday or purchased the black friday special on Friday I would not have the money to fix my car. That would of been the worst thing that could happen. With the holidays upon us, it's hard to borrow that kind of money, and without the car it would be a struggle for my fiance to get to work, so I am thankful that I waited. Christmas may not be as big as I planned, but that's okay. It's not about the cost of the gifts or how many, it's about so much more than that.

So this did make my day a little happier and I am glad that I may have been able to help anyone while moving up the ranks :) Have a great day everyone!

Hi Stacy. Life can be a bummer can't it. Glad you had the money to get your car fixed. Keep smiling.

I am glad you are able to fix your car, and congratulations on your rank. :)
have a great week!

Congratulations on the rank. Keep up the good work.

Sorry to hear about the car but sometimes these things happen for a reason.

Richard.

Well done!

Well done about your rank!

Sorry to hear about your car! Cars do tend to destroy our plans sometimes!

Yes they do, they need to invent teleporting already, lol.

LOL :-)

Beam me up scotty!!!

Good work, keep it up.

It is cool to see how you move up in the ranks! Great job! =)

Life flings unexpected situations at us, but we can choose how we react to them. It just wastes energy to get upset; so much better to look at the positive side as much as possible and to put that energy into dealing with things rather than fretting. Have a wonderful Christmas!

Your right. I could spend my time being sad about it instead I am happy it will all work out. To make me feel even better today I will be putting up my Christmas tree and decorating the house :)

When I get really, really down I get a piece of paper and a pen and simply list all the things I am thankful for. Amazing how much better you feel once this is done. TRY IT SOMETIME??? THX Larry

I actually do that too when things look really bleak. It does help a lot to see the good things that you have :)

Sorry to hear about you misfortunes with the car - that's tough. But as far as things go with Wealthy Affiliate & IM, Lady you're rolling! Congrats once again.

Thank you! Yeah, it sucks when something unexpected happens, but it will all work out, I'm grateful it wasn't more expensive.

Yeah, but the good thing about getting your biz off the ground is that it will definitely soften the blow when unexpected events occur.

Very true!
