Courtney, I'm glad your surgery went well. 

So many great 'things to be happy about' - especially the great politics stuff already posted!!!

1) Had a fun trip/visit in the US, seeing my family & being on vacation.

2) Happy to be home again though!

The boy left me alone, stupid boy, so I walked down to Oxford street and bought three dresses and some boots. IT'S THE BOY'S FAULT.

These are the boots, I love them!

1.) Exactly one month until my ILR appointment 

2.) 1.5 more days of work until my holiday! 

1. Feeling blue and my in-laws came by and cheered me up!

2. I know it's only a £5 hot water bottle...But it's been HEAVEN to snuggle with!

1. I bought my first candy cane of the season yesterday so I can have peppermint hot chocolate at work tonight.

2. My car goes to the doctor tomorrow, so I will be able to get out and about without having to borrow vehicles. The guy I go to has been backed up all week, but he charges by the job and not by the hour, so he is inexpensive and does great work.

1. New tires 

2. Phone call from my former bus-mate -- just to see how I'm getting on.

1. Got a lot of things done that I've been putting off today! I love that feeling of accomplishment!

2. The hubby is making me a lovely dinner tonight! It's nice to be able to sit back and relax after a busy day!

1. One of mom's friends tried to win prettiest house in a Halloween contest and decorated with loads of pumpkins. She has given me a few of them to make soup with.

2. The countdown to pecan pie is on!

It's been a pretty shite day, so I'm kind of scraping to find something to be happy about, but...

1.  my dinner -- a bowl of home-made chicken soup with big chunky carrots and tiny little conchigliette, and a bottle of Joker.

2.  so thankful that I grew up in a time and circumstance where I could leave home at 17 and become a strong, independent person with a varied catalogue of interesting/challenging life experiences.  So many of the people I work with, who are roughly my age, have got adult kids living at home because they can't afford their independence, and it just seems like a nightmare for all concerned.

With University, upcoming SET(M), husband at sea for a month, IBS, and not-being-able-to-go-to-Berlin stress, I think it's absolutely necessary I find a couple of things to feel happy about today!

1. Finally getting into an exercise routine.

2. It's a lovely, autumn, rainy day.

1. My shiny new British passport arrived today! 

2. R surprised me by booking us for the Thanksgiving feast at my fave vegan restaurant, Manna. Now I know this is not exciting to most of you, but they are seriously one of the best vegan restaurants around and I love love love their food so I am chuffed to bits!
