Each year, my work can run 24/7 from mid Jan to early March and right now I’m a little behind my own target. So the work hangs over my head. But every Wed, after a difficult late afternoon meeting (not related to this work,) a bunch of us go to dinner, hang for about 2.5 hours and bubble and laugh. And today is Wed!
Plus, D1’s bf now has his shoveling groove on. 
It’s going to be 81 degrees here at the coast today and I’m meeting friends for happy hour at a lovely place overlooking the ocean. Life is good
Reading all these wonderful, simple things that bring people pleasure!
For me, facebook chatting with D at midnight - initiated by her. A phone call from S where the first sentence started, “Everything is great!”
We are all fine and generally happy. This is a good thing.
Being a dog couch-- when the dog jumps up on the sofa and flops on top of me to take a nap.
We have a contract on our house!!! It is for less than asking price, but much more than I thought it would sell for. It is a cash sale and they want closing in two weeks!!! Thank you God!!!
The ortho confirmed that while it IS a hairline fracture, it should heal fine BEFORE we go on our trip and no need to take boot or crutches on trip (tho maybe a cane). He was nice, as was his Nurse Practitioner. They said use Tylenol instead of ibuprofen, since the latter MAY slow healing of fracturea (I never knew this & the others never mentioned it).
Love this thread! Little things that make me happy on a regular basis are my Starbucks latte, watching birds at my feeders, and reading a great book . . .
Oh, and OP, Tom Chef and Project Runway also make me happy!!
It’s almost 6pm and it is not dark outside. Can’t wait till spring forward in a few weeks.
My friend has chickens laying too many eggs right now–she gave me 42 eggs this week. Just made a pound cake with 13 eggs! (Also had French toast, omelettes, and plenty of fried eggs. . .)
Happy news @atomom! I just saw on the news that you can eat more eggs now - they are not so concerned about eggs for cholesterol!!!
My basketball team (Vanderbilt) winning the big game tonight.
A young energetic slightly experienced CPA to do the piles and stacks of returns on my floor. Then I could spend all my time just consulting and advising clients.
Other choice (more likely, ha) is for financial aid packages to start dribbling in so D can make up her mind. She’s exceptionally frugal and cost conscious and it’s going to have a big impact on her decision.
Second week at my new job, my boss said to me, “I am really glad you are here.”
Just finished watching the sunset and whales off our balcony in Maui. Made me very happy.
DS (our younger kid, a senior in college) recently accepted a great job offer starting in June. Yay
I had a nice little chat with my new neighbor who was thought to be snobby. Quite contrary he was personable and pleasant.

I found a great on-street parking spot downtown. There were 20 minutes to go in the pay to park window but when I went to the meter someone had stuck a voucher to the meter for the next person that still had 25 minutes “left over” . . . Seattle <3
