Sunshine and beautiful spring days.

Fica-- pronounced fee-kuh (Swedish coffee break that includes a pastry)

H coming home after a week away.

What are yours?

Re: Things that make you happy

  • The fact that we are getting pizza for lunch at work. And the fact that our boss is letting us have either the Friday or Monday of Easter weekend off without charging us vacation. My job in general makes me happy today I guess.
  • My doggie running right past FI to greet me when he brought me home from the airport the other day.  I think I'm her favorite (shhhh!)

    Talking to my BFF about the new guy that she's dating.  She's not girlie at all and is really excited about this guy.   SO CUTE!
  • Seeing my baby love books makes me happy. =-)

    -Taking walks with my best friend that include tropical sno and stopping at the park to play.
    -Reading a really good book.
    -Being with FI.

    When my hydrangeas bloom. Particularly if the pH of the soil means they'll be blue. I got pink last year and I'm hoping they'll be blue this year.

    Sunbathing.

    Happy hour at my favorite bar. When H comes to happy hour with me, it's even better.

    The fact that because of the pay periods with the old job and the new job, I'll be getting a little extra money. And that means I can take advantage of the 40% off sale at Ann Taylor right now.

    And, my new job gives us an hour and fifteen minutes for lunch because they're reasonable and understand that it's almost impossible to be able to go out and get something to eat in an hour. But they pay me as if I only took an hour.

  • Lattes, and the gift card I won to starbucks yesterday.

    Sunshine.  Stealing that from others.
  • Oh and the fact that I am now the proud owner of HP and tDH Part1 makes me happy!

    Shut the front door.  Off to Ann Taylor I go.  Ann Taylor makes me happy.
  • I'm pretty sure BabyBee is one of the cutest, smiliest babies I have ever seen.

  • My soccer team
    Lola being funny, which happens about every 5 seconds
    H surprising me by taking care of dinner on a day when I reeeeaaaally didn't want to cook (yesterday)
    FRIDAY.
    Also sunshine because it was grey and horrible all week, and I thought winter had come forever and that I wouldn't see the sun until September, but today is sunny
  • My kitties. My friends. Having the warm weather coming back. The smell of fresh cut grass. Cheeseburgers. Harry Potter marathons. Pedicures. Weekends. Making travel plans. The sunroof in my car.
  • Banana cream cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory

    Carlos, the cat that acts like a dog who lives up the street.  He's the best cat ever (I'm a dog person, so that means something).

    Carlos had been missing for the past few days.  I was really upset about this because I sort of consider him to be my pet (he likes to sun bathe on my car and runs up to me meowing whenever I call his name).  Mr. Penny told me he said a prayer for Carlos because he knows how much I love him.  It was cute and random.  That made me really happy :).
  • Tastycake Mini Frosted Donuts...unfortunately I can't have any more between now and our trip to FL :(

    The way H looks at me sometimes.

    Talking to a student who's really excited to come to school here.

    When a friend I don't get to see much texts or e-mails me to see how I'm doing.  It makes me feel loved and missed.

    Did I mention Tastycake Frosted Mini Donuts?  Fuucking diet.

  • There are many things but one that stood out to me recently.

    My dad passed away when I was 10. My sister takes my nephews to visit him at the cemetery often. The other day they asked her if she could take them because they wanted to show grandpa their baseball uniforms. It touched me that they have him in their lives in some sort of way.
  • Oooh, and my Kindle. And free books on my Kindle. Changed my life. I'm not exaggerating, I read ALL the time now, whereas before it was hard to find books in English.
  • I WANNA PONTOON THIS WEEKEND!!!

    And I'm pretty damn happy. I choose to be. I enjoy life much more if I look for things that make me happy. I just really don't like being miserable. It's not a whole lot of fun, ya know?
