The good things thread


This is a thread where we can tell everyone about a good thing that happened to us today. Just one good thing - but choose wisely.

Today, I finished a story and submitted it. That's my good thing for today.

What's yours?

My good thing is thoroughly selfish and uninteresting to anyone but me...

My MP3 Player came today! Bye bye lugging around my CD player and hundreds of CDs. emoticon

A good thing?

Hmm...well, I guess the only thing I have to say is that I got actual food for dinner, not cafeteria unrecognizables. emoticon

Thora: That's still something. And it counts. emoticon

Trying: Hehe, yay!

Rachel: Hey, I didn't say it had to be a good thing for everyone. Just for you is perfectly fine.

Good thing today: The MP3 player I got Sunday from my sister finally has a playlist that I might hold on to for more than twenty minutes.

Since I'll be leaving soonish for two days off, here's my good thing for today:

Good News Network

That's something I've been wanting to read for a long time. emoticon

Re: The good things thread


The good thing that happened yesterday was that our guests for tea didn't show up.

That means I got to clean the flat, do all that housework I had ignored, only to be able to eat all those scones and cream and strawberry jam by myself, after all! (Well, I did share with my husband.)

I'm guessing you didn't have any problem falling asleep. That sounds like a good thing.

Re: The good things thread


We went to see baby rabbits today, and picked two which we get in two weeks as my beloved Blitzen died a few months ago.

But I'm still allergic to long haired rabbits, and instead of one I'll now have two.

Was this a good thing? My daughter's hsppy, so it will do.

Seeing you here, Blitzen, is a good thing all in itself. emoticon

I'm learning a technique that shows some promise with allergies. In fact, I got home from a workshop for it yesterday.

And that workshop was a Really Good Thing! emoticon

Thanks for reviving this threat. That's a really good thing, too!

I was at a birthday party of a friend. Good food, relaxed talk, just fun. And I'm full!

I managed to stay awake throughout my statistics lecture, which is just as well 'cause I was reminded of the assignment I had forgotten about!

Oh dear!

I had a lovely evening out on the balcony, with a great dinner my darling cooked. (Well, it was pasta and tomato sauce, but still! Very good sauce!)

Yay!

Yesterday, I started a new short story, about one of my novel characters I really love. And I got 600 words without even trying.

Great news!

I found an easy way to make new buttons for my homepage. I believe it will get golden touches, too.
