          Re: Things that make you smile

          The little things make me smile. Even in this hard time, I get these little pockets of luck. Like, the plastic unit I found at JP's that is the EXACT same shade of blue to match our oshawatt bathroom, or the fact I'm going to a flat tomorrow and for a charity donation of £20, I can take as much as I want, from curtains, kitchen utensils to even the oven! Then my sister has moved into a flat this week. The former occupier used to run a new age store but never paid her rent and was evicted. She dumped some of her stock so the landlord toldmy sister to help herself. I have enough joss, soap, carrier oil and oil burner crystals to last a few years!!

          When I couldnt afford to pay the girl who's moving out for the furniture she didn't want, she lost her temper and decided not to sell me anything! I've no idea why she'd do that. She knows how poor JP and I are and wanted an amount that works out at a 6th of our monthly income. I was very hurt, but my dad got wind of my situation (I never go to him for handouts even though he does have a fair bit of cash!), and he said he'd have given her the money. Instead he's buying me a new washer and a few other bits. Now Michelle is stuck with huge wardrobes and a bed she can't move and has to find homes for by saturday! Haha, that'll teach her to be spiteful. She took things like the kettle and mirrors etc.. every last thing that I'd have bought if she weren't so petty. Think she thought it would spite me, but I have so many amazing friends giving or loaning me items, as well as a few things I had stored away, that evertime she moves something, something nicer replaces it. It makes me smile that she has cut off her nose to spite her face while I'm doing fine!! Thanks Brigantia!!

            I made a friend at the music store today on the basis of us both being bassoonists. XD it was pretty awesome. Always great to make more musician friends.

                Carb overload (usually referred to as tryptophan effects). I'm so ready for a nap!

                    JP has his key now! Michelle still has the spare because she doesn't move out officially until tomorrow and still has a few odds and ends to move so needs to get in and out. But besides our bedroom which we can't move into until tomorrow, the rest of the flat is all ours now!! Also, not great timing, but JP's mum is getting us the kitten we've always wanted as a birthday present for me. Should have it by next Thursday! I'm so excited because I've wanted a cat ever since my dear old Cleo died. To top it all off, JP has just left for a screening interview for Apple. If he gets it, he starts training on Monday and if he proves himself during the training, he has a final interview then gets a permanant contract with them!! Too soon to get my hopes up, but enough to make me smile!

                      I can pick up our pitbull around his chest and hold him like a little puppy and he just kind of stands there panting and licking my face (or trying to)
                      which is adorable given the fact that he's you know

                                I think I'm back on the ball! My divorce is final. I don't have 90 million things running through my mind, at any given moment. I can relax and just be myself, again.

                                A lecherous, vulgar, cantankerous, and concupiscent Olde Pharte-in-training.

                                Yeah. That makes me smile. A LOT! :wink razz:

                                :grin: :wtf: :creepy:
