Wednesday Smiles

My smile:

My down comforter.  :)  It, along with my DH's furnace-like properties, makes winter slightly more bearable. 

Your turn, my lovelies.

I mostly post fannish things in this journal, but I think it's easy to forget that there is a real person behind the fic and the Bones commentary. Same goes for other people, of course. So I'd like to take a minute to acknowledge our humanity.

If you'd like to do so, please tell me something that made you smile this week, no matter how small. Could be the snuggle your dog gave you on Monday, the song you discovered on Tuesday, or the way your significant other smiled at you today. I've been posting these since December. If you feel up to it, please respond—here, in your own journal, or elsewhere. Feel free to post more than one thing and/or respond to other comments.

Why am I doing this? Because I think it is far too easy to get caught up in the stresses, big and small, that we all experience. Being able to focus on one positive thing, however small, can give one a valuable sense of perspective.

Why Wednesday? I figure a little mid-week cheer can't hurt. :)

oh, this is lovely, thank you!
well, i smiled today because i got to come straight home and make myself hot chocolate with whipped cream, and snuggle with my dog, and read the catcher and the rye.

Joe has been randomly singing snippets from 'Santa Got Stuck Up The Chimney' to me all week as they are learning it for their school play. Actually we only realised what the song actually was today as he has had one and a half verses on repeat until now. SO FRIGGIN ADORABLE :D

Never heard that song, but that's so cute! lol

Whenever he does it I kind of mini squee!

Best. Song. Ever.

Seriously. I learned it in kindergarten and still love it. :)

ETA: And the mental picture of Joe singing that is cuter than the "Skip a heartbeeeat" rendition. Awws...

Got lots of writing done today! :)
And fandom friends always give me a big grin!

Other than that, I've been rather bored today! lol

Hope you're doing well, hon!

I'm in a position to have a day off from psych class (in the top 2%) in order to work on papers for other classes (and to save myself bus money).

Christmas crafts and programs with preschoolers - I love my job. Also my college freshman comes home next Thursday! *misses her bunches*

Today my smile is for (because of? I'm too tired for semantics...) Space since she made me smile and laugh yesterday when I really needed it.

two days off in a row, which means time to get shit done (by which i mean sitting on my ass and watching tv).

Hope you don't mind my popping in here.

I've been sickish the last few days and my Mum has been absolutely awesome during that time. Offering me ginger ale and soup and letting me sleep uninterrupted when needed.

She doesn't have to do that anymore, what with me being an "adult" and all, but she does and she does it without thinking about it and I need to show her how much I appreciate it all.
