Apparently, there is a study that now shows that all of those happy Pollyanna types can go to hell are really not better off than the grumpy among us. For surly old curmudgeons like myself, this is something to be almost happy about. But, don't let happiness take over or you might start to make bad decisions.

Feeling grumpy 'is good for you'

Bah humbug!

P.S. In case no one noticed, I'm obviously grumpily catching up on some long overdue posts. I've been sitting on this one for a month. I hope I haven't left anyone too happy in that time and caused any bad decision making. If I did ... well ... all I can say is ... mumble grumble frak.

P.P.S. I can't remember where I first saw this. If you are reading this and remember sending it to me, thanks.

most people that JUST dont lie/fake it, tend to called grumpy.
Its not that they ARE grumpy, its just that they SAY what is needed, or what they WANT to say.
Also REALISTS would fall into this category.  and as most of the Older persons have LIVED and know whats happened in the past...we just cant SEE any changes for the better in the future.
