An Amazing Happening

As most of you know, things have not been going so great for HistoryBoy and I.

HistoryBoy is still having issues with school and hates going. I will go more into that again in another bog. He has been on and off sick since Thanksgiving as have I. Actually, my health has been horrid lately. I can't stay healthy for very long. This weather isn't helping. I hate cold weather but the back and forth from warm to cold is actually worse for my health than actual cold weather. UGH! I am still struggling to get on an even keel with good and bad days. I get so frustrated that I don't know what to do or how much more I can handle.

Then I got a sign that things were going to be ok and it cheered me up and took me out of myself for well a day at least.
So here is the amazing event for you.

USA Network (@USA_Network) had a Twitter contest for their TV show Royal Pains (@RoyalPains_USA) and if you Twittered and Re-tweeted #MeetMark you could win the chance to be first in line to meet Mark Feuerstein in NYC at a book signing. Well guess what folks, yours truly was chosen!! ME!!

*I* got to me the handsome, warm, friendly and charming Mark Feuerstein at a book signing of the book "Sick Rich" for the Royal Pains book series at the NBC Exprience Store in NYC yesterday. My wonderful hubby, Angus, as we all know his as here took off from work to be able to drive me because I can't drive myself.

I arrived at the store the event coordinator took pics of me. First with the publicity poster. Then with my hubby in the store. Once Mark arrive at the event, I was escorted to the front of the line where he came over and I was introduced to him as the contest winner and he gave be a big hug! I was in awe. I got to talk to him for a couple of minutes and I fund out he went to Princeton. So not only is he great looking but also smart and from my area! Triple Threat! Watch out Angus! LOL!

He signed a book for me and one for History boy. Mine says Congrats! Love, Mark Feuerstein and HistoryBoy's (who couldn't go because he had school and after-school activities) says To Matt, my #1 & 1/2 fan <3 Mark Feuerstein. HistoryBoy was ABSOLUTELY thrilled! We bought his a t-shirt as well and he wore it to school today.

All in all it was an awesome day. (I should say morning as this took place at 11am) We were back at Angus' parents by 1 and I was taking my nap shortly thereafter... so sad I know. Such is my life as we know it. I wouldn't trade it though. I needed a day like that to remind me that I can still *have* days like that, well maybe not exactly like that all the time, but you know what I mean.

Thank you to: USA Network ( http://www.usanetwork.com/ or @USA_Network) , Royal Pains (http://www.usanetwork.com/series/royalpains/ or @RoyalPains_USA) and Mark Feuerstein for helping me to remember me. I needed that. You will never truly know how much.

PS: Thanks to you too Angus! I love more than I love chocolate!
