Doing the Happy Dance

After three years of giving us the finger, the community I live and work in finally approved a tax referendum in yesterday's primary. This time around we did not ask for a property tax increase, but a sales tax increase. Our city government partnered with us, and though they will be the ones to collect the money a portion of it will go to us. So in this election everyone wins: taxpayers will not have to pay higher property taxes and the library will get the money it needs.

More importantly, I get to keep my job. :-)

Anyone else have good news to share? I feel like celebrating!
