When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

1.  It's sunny and 14 degrees C!
2.  DH and I are going out to dinner tonight with another couple.
3.  Today is my last day on a one year contract and my client have TUPE'd me across, so I'll be working for them directly starting Monday.
4.  People in the office seem especially happy and chatty today (perhaps related to reason #1?)
5.  I'm looking forward to March as I've got lots of fun things planned for next month.

1.) J and I are texting about pizza and its making me miss really good pizza (like New England greek style pizza). J has no clue what good pizza is!
2.) A big black-sticky-nasty chunk came flying out of my coffee flask this morning, rendering it completely useless. It looked like a worm!  [smiley=puke.gif]
3.) I'm looking for volunteers to clean my house for me. Any takers???   Its falling apart from lack of attention and its pretty gross...sorry...just don't have the energy to do it myself... guess I better ask J sweetly if he'd mind. :) :)
4.)  I don't have anything else interesting to write.
5.) Enjoy your weekends everyone!

1. DD (9 months) has finally cut the 4 teeth that have been coming in the past 3 weeks.
2. Only 4 more days till DH has a day off.
3. Only 2 weeks till we leave for Scotland!
4. I got a full nights sleep solid last night for the first time in 10 months!
5. A good friend back in the states got the gift we sent for her birthday and was surprised & very happy since it was about 2 weeks early.
