What brought you joy today? - Page 17

Going thorugh my closet and getting rid of two bags of clothes that make me look like I'm 30 years older than I should be and never wore. (WHY do my mom's friends give me their old work clothes thinking I will like/wear them? It's a sweet thought, but I keep maybe one thing out of twenty) It gives me great joy to be able to upcycle them at the Goodwill down the street. YEAH!

Having coffee on the phone with a friend because we were both too cozied up in our warm houses to go out for our Sunday coffee.

A glass of Sauvignon Blanc at a posh hotel and, much later, Superglue.

Sitting in a living room with several leather people having a discussion on Liberation Theology. Brilliance. I was pleasantly surprised at an informed discussion. It has been way too long since I got to have a discussion with someone who even knew what Liberation Theology is let alone know specifics.

Spending the morning drinking coffee and chatting with friends.

Today is my last day off until the next term starts. I am excited that I am making progress towards my degree. Pretty much already know what I am doing once I graduate. Have 3-4 terms left. Yay!

Arwen · 01-03-2010, 07:22 PM

[QUOTE=amiyesiam;29839]I got my vacation requests back last night at work.
I knew I took a day off just about every week the first 3 months of the year so I would not have to drive so much this winter.
But apparently, in July, when I put the requests in, I decided to take 5 days off in Feb, which means 9 days off in the dead of winter. I am so EXCITED
I also got super bowl weekend off!!!!!!
What brings me joy is 9 days off in less than a month!!!
we will not focus on the fact that I don't remember doing this

Arwen · 01-05-2010, 11:29 AM

My kitty that i have had for over 10 years who disappeared a month ago and came back yesterday. She is only 6 pounds and very dehydrated but she is eating and resting comfortably. If nothing else good happens this year, at least she is home and safe now....I missed her horribly and I think she will make it.....what a miracle

Gemme · 01-05-2010, 02:39 PM

* an upcoming check with OT
* a free movie ticket
* an evening off (if I can stay awake)
* not having to get up at the buttcrack of dawn tomorrow
* bossing folks around today and having them actually DO what I tell them to

Reading the Nutritional Label on the Hershey Syrup bottle and discovering there are ZERO fat grams per serving.

There's so much joy in this world, all you have to do is open your eyes (or better yet, open your mouth)!!!

Lynn · 01-07-2010, 10:00 AM

Waking up early to give my honey her birthday present. She was actually surprised, this time! Tickets to see Carrie Underwood.

She's very pleased. I love that!

Arwen · 01-07-2010, 11:04 AM

Bagels and cream cheese for me
Plain bagel for the squirrels and birds

An extra hour of sleep
Warm kitty snuggling under the covers against my belly
Life in general

1) Setting up a grocery delivery for tomorrow evening. I can't wait to have groceries that may last me longer than a few days! (It's really hard to shop for deals and get heavier and bulky items home when you have to take the bus and walk a few blocks). I will be saving $ and be healthier in the long run because I will be bringing my breakfast and lunch to work instead of buying from Starbucks or the little deli in our building.

2) Helping mom plan a party for my Grammy's 90th birthday next month.

3) Being able to focus and concentrate this morning because my talkative co-worker is out of the office in meetings all day.
