Happiness this morning.....



...... sitting on the balcony, little chilly, but a wearing hoodie. Enjoying hot coffee and watching the last of the fog lift as the sun hits the tops of the rooftops. Being on the third floor I have a great view!

Kitty chatter and bird watching is amusing me..lol

Happiness is … becoming a grandmother to my eldest daughter's first son. His name is Z. Bachir (Bachir is Persian for "Brings Good Tidings") and he's 13 months and 21 days old (as of today), and he has big green eyes and dark red hair. He's a cutie, for sure.

… Fine tuning my online news source subscription news feeds.

I've noticed how certain major news networks feature too many 'Captain Chaos' news stories and subsequent news stories about GOP henchmen who have controlled politics for far too long. I know that we need to stay on top of issues created by these horrible people, but I just don't want to see their ugly faces in the news on a daily basis. So I've cleared space in my web life to include only positive and relevant news source web pages.

Happiness is...

... Long term goals and little steps towards them.
... Knowing this is not the destination, only part of the journey.
... Finally having people in my life that I don't have to pretend around, no matter what is going on in my head.

A warm bed next to your Partner, sheets turned down, cool fluffed pillow with bedded snuggle cat curled in a ball sleeping and purring, on the bed in the middle of the so you can just slip in disturbing no one.

Coming into work after a nice and long break to find my manager is taking the day off. I have a good relationship with my manager but it's good not having her needing anything from me on my first day back in the groove.

theoddz 01-27-2020 01:29 PM

Happiness is really looking forward to coming home, after being out running around doing things, knowing I have a beautiful, comfy, safe and secure home, with a warm overstuffed recliner to get into and put my sore leg up. :winky:

Happiness.....true and overwhelming happiness, is also having such a beautiful, sweet, warm, funny and loving wife to share a cool evening and a good show on a huge big screen tv in our big beautiful, comfy home. :awww:

I'm a very, very lucky and blessed fella. I have absolutely no complaints and every reason to be super thankful for so many wonderful blessings. :thumbsup:

gifting a teenage girl with depression with paints, brushes, and canvases to help with finding healthy outlets.

Happiness is...
 
Having a little extra money in my monthly grocery budget to afford to buy Orange Juice and a half box of Oranges. Orange Juice and Oranges are fairly expensive, so when I have extra money to buy them -- it makes me feel happy and it helps me to feel healthy (like I'm doing something good for my body).

Happiness is:

Seeing the incredible acts of kindness that this pandemic has spurred. Sadly, that it took that to spur them, BUT happy it is happening!

Fresh cantaloupe slices with a kiss of sea salt.

Surprise packages filled with love from my chosen family & friends

Waking up healthy yet another day.

Hopey & how much she loves me.

Happiness, for me, is the realization that I don't have to do it all. In fact, i don't really have to do most of it.
Here's a word to those who are dealing with the stress of homeschooling....RELAX

"... until isolation and distancing measures can be loosened, and schools safely accessed for all children, we need to ease the burden on parents. And the external drivers of much of this stress – workplaces and the education system – must do their part. Parents doing home-based work are struggling to produce at pre-pandemic levels, while parenting and teaching off the sides of their shared desks and often sharing a computer. The list of expectations, online curriculums, assignments and school-based meetings with multiple children of various ages can be a scheduling nightmare. This is especially challenging for parents of school-aged children under 10, preschoolers and children with special needs. For parents who are doing essential work outside the home, homeschooling takes on a whole other dimension.

School systems at all levels – starting from Ministries of Education – need to publicly reduce the assignment-driven pressure on both students and parents. Employers need to support parents in the short-term, re-examining expectations and ways of working, so these employees can return to work with their mental health intact. The longer we remain in a collective lockdown, the more of a toll it threatens to take on parents’ health.

Learning is lifelong, and a few months of incomplete schooling will have a negligible effect on most children. They will eventually learn their multiplication tables and the French word for “happiness.” When kids finally gather safely again in schools, each of them will be at a different place. And trained, compassionate, caring professionals will be there to help each one of them.

A parent’s job today is not to homeschool; it’s to stay connected. Kids who are emotionally secure will learn better. There are a lot of lessons in what we are going through together, and many of them are on the home front."

From a very sensible "Globe and Mail" opinion piece today.

This thread is so beautiful! It makes me happy just reading it.

Today, happiness is typing these words under a tree beneath the setting sun. I've been in workaholic mode these past few weeks, so it means a lot to take a few minutes to myself.

I'm really trying hard to work in a little "me time" every day, but it's tough! I hope everyone reading this was able to set aside some time for self-care today.

3 (kinds of)happiness's today... coffee date w PhD..in her car w Starbucks and the rain outside

RebelDyke 05-14-2020 09:55 PM

That first phone call that lasts 5 1/2 hours of (dare I say) a potential budding romance? That leaves you with a cheeky grin or smirk..and makes you start to question this whole ....relationship thing...there may be hope.. :rrose::blush:

Happiness...when someone appreciates your creative work and pays you really what it's worth. I sold the teacup quilt I made late last year. Last week I sold battenburg lace and this week a quilt! Yay me!!

Feeling good about myself!

I'm still a Fat & Fabulous Femme, and I can still rock a beautiful dress, and I can still smile, smile, smile.

Having time to blow bubbles and watch them trail off in the air to see where they go (a lot of mine went way up into the sky).
It's a relaxing activity for both kids and adults, alike. :balloon:

the way he tenderly loves me and supports me in all I do and in the way he holds me while we cuddle and bond during quiet moments of our lives together. I feel so safe and valued and adored and treasured by the way he cares for me. Which makes me care so deeply for him. He is my heart of hearts. My one and only true love. :blush:

Reconnecting with a local friend that has always meant a lot to me. It amazes me our individual journeys we've been on that are so different, yet bring us together.

It absolutely amazes me how the past several days since our chance encounter has transpired, and transformed my life. This is a good thing.

My brother came in to see me after 4 months apart and we went to lunch. The second time I have been out of the apt building in over 4 months. First time to restaurant. Wonderful lunch. Went to the Halibut House and had fish and chips and a side of deep fried clams. Coffee. I had a very happy day which I have not had in a very long time. *S
