Happiness is …

By Mike
  • Getting your car washed on the way into work.  And the jalopy needed it; I’m usually a fastidious monster about vehicle cleanliness, but it hadn’t been touched in over 3 months, and it was showing.  Badly.
  • Having your house painted.  A friend of mine is changing all the colours in my house, and it’s a real breath of fresh air to come home to squeaky-clean paint.  Today, my home office is being transformed from its very dark royal blue into a light-yellow-with-a-hint-of-burnt-orange oasis.  I can’t wait to see it!
  • Eating a banana, like I’m doing right now.
  • Pay day.  Who doesn’t like pay day?
  • A department meeting where my promotion will be announced to the rest of the team.  But ssssshhhhhhh - it’s still a secret!
  • Tonight I’m going to a writers meetup.  I’m excited; I haven’t been to any sort of writer’s circle in years.  Maybe I’ll bring a few of my blogging pieces in case I’m asked to read?

    Love this! In fact it inspired me to find a quote on happiness and include it on my blog. I linked back to you. Thanks again for the “motivation”
