You're going to have a comfy few days then?

At least you're not just sitting on the floor!

I'll probably be too busy unpacking to sit down anyway

Too true, Susan!

Awww, this just made my day!

A lovely hippy-type man (just like me!

) just came to my door selling some lovely Indian agarbattis

We had a really cheerful chat and I bought two packets!

My house smells sweet and I have a smile on my face!

My good news is that I got my first ribbon from Weight Watchers last night- I've lost 5.4 pounds!

Also I'm sooo looking forward to tonight because it should be the first night we don't have to leave right after work to go run errands! I just have to stop at the grocery store on the way home to pick up a few things then it's 'just us' time and I can finally get some laundry done and pick up around our pig pen!

Good job! I bet that's motivates you even more, doesn't it??

I've got a loving husband and amazing daughter, and we are all well. Our three kitties are healthy, too. I have nice friends, a beautiful place to live, and I don't have to work an outside job. I appreciate all of this!

This thread has made me realize that all the bad stuff going on right now isn't very important.

Cheers, from

I submitted a landscaping maintenance estimate to a manufacturing plant that I had worked at this summer and it was accepted!!!
I got the call this morning and a purchase order number for reference.
While the income earned won't be lots it is steady revenue for the 8 month term.
And every bit counts!!

That is GREAT!!


My best friend is graduation form college tonight. i mentioned this in anohter thread. But she has overcome a lot of obstacles. She had a baby at 15 and dropped out of HS. She went for her GED, and then started college. She will be an LPN and intends to go for her RN.

I never noticed this thread before!

I start a new job on Monday and I can walk to work. No more long commutes or subway delays.

 

[pushylady]

congrats Gail!

Party on, Natalie! You go have some fun with all kinds of different coloured pants!

Kass, that must be great to walk to work! Especially as winter is coming. Now you don't have to worry about scraping ice, will the car start, are the roads ploughed...(hmm, sounds like you're out of a few excuses for being late though!)

This blue pants thing is too funny

The ladies at my work get a kick out of it too...especially since I know the guys name, but I prefer blue pants to his name..

Anyway, yes I will look to all the coloured pants from now on

just remember, if he's not interested in you, that's just proof that he's an idiot and therefore, you're better off without him

My good news for today:
I interviewed someone for a research project and she was very useful. After the interview, she gave me lots of very useful information too. That will make my project so much easier (and better)

I was having a miserable last two days. I got home tonight, flopped in my chair and a grey fluffball wrapped herself around my neck and flopped on my shoulder and fell asleep, purring.
How can anyone stay sad after something like that happening?

 

[AbbysMom]

I think it is time to revive this thread.

We all need a little boost.

My good news for today is that the rain stopped and the sun is shining. I also found a nice birthday present for my father

 

[neetanddave]

Thanks Karen!

I would hug you, but I have my reputation to maintain.

My good news for today is.... well, I didn't smack any stoopid coworkers today. That's good for them. And me too, I guess, cause I didn't get fired for hitting anyone...
