Sitting Pretty

in a fortunate position<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I heard that Michael and Jennifer got a good price when they sold their house.

Yes, they did. Now they’re really sitting pretty. As a matter of fact, they’re thinking of going on a long vacation.

I wish I were in such a fortunate position. I haven’t had a vacation in years.
