The Happy Thread

[jeninwa]

I'm happy because my friend came and helped me make my goodie bags for the retreat, I am so happy with them, just hope everyone likes them. 

[Amy :-)]

Oooh, Jen, you've got me excited and intrigued

[jeninwa]

Do you want me to give you a hint Amy?
What they are. Lol

Happy that I finally found some 2 inch nails and hung up all my brooms and mops in a cupboard high on the wall and cleared out cupboard under stairs to make room for my soaping stuff.

The shoe polish, ironing board and vax vacuum are now much easier to get at. The under stair cupboard is - as they usually are - not the greatest for storage and to keep tidy. I could really do with better shelving.... But as this is not our own house it won't happen.

Funny what makes us happy isn't it.

Lol
We can't go spoiling surprises... I'll just have bite my knuckles and wait in anticipation

Smiling right now as Miss 18mths has just decided to do the vacuuming for me, and she is trying so hard to push the thing along, looks so funny!! 

[Amy :-)]

How sweet of Miss 18mths!!!

I am happy that my blood test is over. Also happy about my PT session, but I'm always happy about those

I'm glad that DH and I sat down and did our budget for the new financial year (we are a bit late).
It just amazes me that the more paperless we go the more paper I seem to have 

[Delightful Den]

Budget? What's that? I just spend until it is all gone.

DD, I'm just trying to get beyond all the paper.

[Katiej]

Sounds like you've been busy Michelle.  It's definitely not a paperless world.

We have a spreadsheet for our budget and another spreadsheet for our actual spend.
The system breaks down though as we never compare actual to budget 

[Delightful Den]

If I thought about it I think you could make a chart that would grab the data from the budget and actual spread sheets and compare them.

However it would just be easier to get the budget app for Ipad which will track all of that for you.

Each day that goes past, I am getting happier and happier. I am finding on a personal level the less I focus on becoming more consumer orientated (we are not starving so food is not an issue) and concentrating on the positives in my life, laughing at every opportunity (but not just for laughing sake - those people send me off the deep end) steering clear of negative people who sweat the small stuff and have obvious issues they don't see as their own, and putting family first - the happier I am.  If I could look at life the way a cat does, then I would have "The Secret to a Happy Life" and this would be the end of this topic.

Lol CP, I know what you mean about cats. Our two have the best life lazing about, sleeping most of the day, food on demand, doors opened for them when ever they want. What a wonderful life.
My DH often says he's coming back as a cat in his next life

[obbie]

CreamPuff, you just made my Day, Thankyou.

I try to be around positive people, try and not let my emotions be affected by others crap.

While also trying to bring up 2 kids.  A cat does have it good..
