find at least one thing each day that makes me happy and record it everyday for a year

Feb 19 – Today was better than yesterday. And yesterday was so crusty that says a lot.

Feb 20 – Got my marriage license!!! I’ll be getting married sometime within the next 60 days. We are eloping, so its a lot more casual on the time.

Feb 21 – There aren’t a lot of people in the library so I don’t have much work to do.

I haven’t been too good about keeping up with this. I am in my typical February funk, so it’s been hard for me to think happy thoughts.

Feb 17 – I worked on Sunday. One reason I love working Sundays is that its a bonus to my regular hours and I get paid time and a half. Every sunday I work makes a wonderful bonus at each paycheck.

Feb 18 – Gads what went RIGHT about this day?? This day almost totally sucked. I guess one nice thing is that Z is very easily satisfied by my doing little things for him. I knew that bringing him a surprise from Wendy’s drivethrough would make him amazingly happy. So I got him a sandwich and split a kid size frosty with him. So no matter how crappy the day is, I can always count on him to be happy about something I did since he’s so easy to please.

Feb 14 – We had a nice spontaneous V-Day celebration even though we weren’t going to do anything until the weekend. I made pot roast and he set the table up with candles and music. It was a nice surprise for both of us

Feb 15 – Got a copy of the Sims2 Seasons! I decided that I wanted it for a whole year so I could safely say it would be a sound investment. Only bad thing is I am not getting enough sleep.

Feb 16 – We saw Spiderwick chronicles. Good movie!!

We got our new beds! OMG they are so much comfier than the old nasty bed. Its like heaven!

We’re having snow right now. And its my favorite kind! Those big giant flakes that slowly swirl to the ground. It makes it look like we’re inside a snowglobe or the Charlie Brown Christmas special.

I get so unreasonably paranoid. I was sweating all day because my boss wanted to have a meeting with me. She just wanted to talk to me about how much she liked my project I was working on and asked me to take on another.

I love my job, as I’ve said many times before. I wish I could really relax about it. I am happy that I don’t have to worry about being so closely scrutinized.

Z and I had an argument and instead of becoming a huge fight we discussed it and were closer. We talked about rational and irrational feelings and how all of them deserved to be acknowledged. I’m so glad that we work things out instead of winning or losing arguments.

Found a MUCH better book to read for my Tuesday’s book discussion than the “God of Animals” which was horrible and depressing. I picked “How it Happened in Peach Hill” about a little girl whose mother is a con artist in the guise of a psychic. The mother is enraged that her daughter is growing up to be exactly like her.

It’s hilarious so far. The mother and daughter are trying to one up each other with miracles, predictions, palm readings..

Oh and Z is in the living room making bookshelves! When the heck did he get so crafy?

Z fixed the dishwasher! It was clogged and wasn’t working at all. I would have had no idea how to fix it, so I am so glad he was willing to tear it apart and learn!

He also set up the new router and did some cleaning. He is the best.

I found out that I lost my bank card a WEEK ago (I don’t use it often)and I went to the bank—nobody stole it. WHEW

Oh yeah.. it makes me happy that it COULD have been stolen and I wouldn’t have noticed.. but it wasn’t. So my money is safe.
