I Won! I Won! Again!

How about that? I got another big prize at an event! Last time, it was a vacuum cleaner at the Electrolux event. Yesterday, I went to a Samsung home appliances event and got...

...Getting free Wendy's iced tea from Kat, who felt so bad for me that she surprised me with my drink of choice.
...Knowing that some pretty awesome people got my back.
...Having a husband who is there to defend me and support me and fight for me when I'm just too damn tired to fight. "You're my knight in shining armor," I told him. And he replied, "And you're my princess." Kinda cheesy, I know. But when you've got that to hang on to, no bad day can bring you down!
