Any Small Positive Statement

I am listening to christmas music, despite not feeling that christmassy

My husband liked the breakfast I cooked for him this morning.

Aw, I'm at a loss for words. Thank you.

And, thank you again Purple & KT!

I’ve been anxious and calming myself down over talking to one of the executives, which finally happened today. It went smoothly, just as I’ve been telling myself it would.

It’s a small company, but this person can be difficult to talk to.

Whew.

There was a little bit of pumpkin pie left, and I split it with my daughter. It’s my favorite thing

The convention center I walk through every day has put up their Christmas lights. The ceiling is at least three stories tall, and they hang these long, white string lights from the ceiling in a rectangle shape. I just love it; it makes me happy:throb;

<looking for signs of Ceph>

I ran into an old friend yesterday. It was good to see her

I got more done today than I thought I could.

Okay, positive things?

How about how absolutely perfectly Autumn-like it was outside today. The cool breeze, blowing the crunchy brown, red and golden yellow leaves around on the ground, with a slight bite about it that hints of the winter weather to come. The way the trees had no leaves on them, their bare branches starkly standing out against the dull grey sky. The hint of sweet wood smoke in the air from fireplaces around the neighborhood mixing with the musty smell of the leaves adding ambiance to the crisp, cool atmosphere.

I love fall. Maybe because my birthday is in November. Maybe it's because there's a holiday in this season dedicated solely to gorging oneself on an elaborate meal that took hours to make. Or it could be that it's so colorful, with reds, golds, browns, and every color in between. It's like I'm walking through a Monet whenever I'm strolling through the neighborhood with my puppy. Or it could be the nostalgia I feel when I see leave piles, remembering fondly how I'd spend hours playing in ones in the front yard of the home I spent the fair bit of my childhood, and promptly brings back memories of the wasp who was caught inside said pile one year and stung me. Man, that hurt like crazy!!

It also helps the fact that I have the absolutely most perfectly perfect romance going on. Things seem to shine in such a better, and more vibrant light when you're in love!

I am drinking coffee in bed. I've been having such a hard time with mornings but I have nowhere I absolutely have to be today so I am deciding to enjoy my cozy bed time instead of feeling guilty. I'm under two warm duvets, the coffee is delicious and I'm enjoying your posts.

I THINK I WILL HAVE ANOTHER COFFEE!

I'm feeling a little stronger today.

There isn’t much I like better than an endless happy hug loop

A highlight from the holiday party last night—we walked into the piano bar room, and the entertainers were singing in that lounge lizard, cheesy style that is difficult to enjoy. When they asked for requests, I said, “Linus and Lucy!” (That’s the signature Charlie Brown/Peanuts song—no singing). When it started, the people at my table laughed, and I said, “Hey, it’s a Christmas Song!”

I think this thread is an absolutely brilliant idea and am going to do my best to keep it updated. Also, I had a good turn in my relationship.

My friend made me laugh so hard, I had to dance it off!

I am talking with my SO and he is making me laugh so hard. I need to be quieter because it's late and other people are sleeping in the house right now....but laughter just doesn't work that way. XD

Ah, the problems of happiness, right?

I've been using terms like "warm and fuzzy" lot lately when talking to people here. That can only be a good thing, right?

Bjornen’s here!

Yay!!

My little six-month-old kitten is very good about taking his medicine. He doesn't fight me at all, and I get it over with quickly.

If I can feel any emotion no matter how painful, I can cope with any situation.

I love this!

I want to make a small positive statement about someone. And I don't want him to worry about responding. He doesn't need to.

Our host, CepheidVariable, is one of my favorite people here. He's one of the deepest, sharpest, kindest, funniest people I've ever interacted with. His comedic timing is impeccable, too, which is hard to do in written words! I think just about everyone here would agree. We love ya, buddy.

Well said B. I agree.

Yes, so well said, Bjornen

Ceph

I agree
