Happy thoughts
aka things that make me happy
Dashing in for a quickie today, am on a mad deadline crunch, but I have been a blog slacker lately so wanted to show my deadbeat self and thought I'd be all cheery and upbeat with "things that make me happy." Feel free to weigh in with your own!
1. My socks. Lani knitted me a pair of lovely blue and hot pink socks and they keep my always-frozen feet toasty warm and I love them and can almost feel the creativity pouring though me from them.
2. My dogs. (Of course, my family makes me happy, but that kind of goes without saying, plus they're all gone right now so I can't take pics). This is baby Peanut in the doll carriage (she is much larger and rounder now, kind of like a big furry, snoring teddy bear)
3. My book. ATLANTIS AWAKENING is on the final stretch and I love it in a madly crazed way. I love Ven and I adore Erin and it's so wonderful to have the writing YIPPEE back!
4. New York. You can see Lani's blog here and Jenny's blog and my blog for details, but what a great week of fun and friends and business.
Now, how about you? What is making you happy today?
hugs,
Alesia

I loved the picture of your dog! My 2 year old dog is sick with some sort of flu today. After a very scary night I had to bring him to the vet this morning, where they told me he had fever. They gave him shots to keep him hydrated and lower the fever. But what's making me happy today is watching him sleep on the couch. If only I could look that cute when I'm sick!

Today I am being made happy by the fact that there are only 4 days before we leave on the cruise we're taking during kidlet's spring break. Of course, that means that I not only have to get all of my stuff done but prepare notes for my sub to use next week (our college switched academic calendars this year and we have no spring break; obviously, I didn't let this stop me from taking one anyway!)
My son and his excitement over *everything* at age 7 makes me happy. Especially his excitement over the upcoming cruise. Aren't kids just fabulous???
And the fact that I will *finally* get to read Atlantis Rising and The Fortune Quilt next week makes me extremely happy! I have been (with great difficulty, I might add!) saving them to read on the cruise and it's finally ALMOST HERE.

My new wrinkle cream! I buy it at Costco so it comes in tubes so big I could probably grout my shower with them. I don't care if it's not really helping, just the illusion of it makes me feel better about the geologic striations that have suddenly appeared on my forehead.
