I feel more than joy but I can't find the right thread. I passed my very first midterm. I got 49 out of 50. I even knew the one I missed.

Arriving home after work brought me tremendous joy today. :)

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

:congrats:

Snowglobe snow whirling around the streets, early on; the jumble of old buildings in the little industrial area near the city centre under a fine dusting of snow looking as if they were huddled together for warmth as I passed them on the train; the colours on a shrub picked out by the changing sunlight, now a little washed out and brown as a wisp of cloud hid the sun momentarily, now the green here and there standing out amidst the brown. Being smiled at by a good looking lass and wondering...

Knowing in a few hours I get to hold My godson and kiss his face....

Thank you
 

Thank you, dee! :)

Finally getting some real food! No more stupid cabbage soup diet!

Did it work??

Picking up Skippy and Tashi from boarding and seeing how happy they were.

Yes but you have to maintain afterward to see better results.

Mere moments ago, Rachel Maddow described herself as a “childless, middle-aged, pot bellied lesbian“ on live television! That gave me some joy.

I almost accidentally made two mortgage payments yesterday. Actually, I briefly thought I did but found out I did not. Made me quite joyful to realize all is okay - moving money around in scramble mode was not necessary. Plus, hanging on the phone attempting to speak with a human being in customer service is time consuming.

Something different than usual was going on. The account did not list the payment as pending in the usual manner. Must have upgraded their software and forgot that part which provides user convenience. I am calling today and telling them to tell their IT Department to correct their software ... to throw up a flag in the code, insert their two code routines that they left out

1. if already paid
2. show payment pending

not rocket science ... a few minor tweaks will be all that is necessary. They already wrote the code and it worked great before it was removed.

How lame to leave that out!!! :( No one wants to dig three layers down to see if they already made their payment. Bet I am not the only one who experienced a little burden over this.

Being made aware of Ivan Coyote by ardentfemme here.. - the piece where Ivan thanks femmes had me in tears, what a beautiful person!

Being gifted tickets to see David Sedaris in May. I love him!
