(just to remind me)
reasons to be happy:

* my husband who loves me
* the cool, sweet, fun cats
* my sweet chubby bathtub
* my new expensive pillow (unfortunately the cats love it too, so i don't get to use it as much as i'd like...)
* the view from all the windows in my home is fantastic
* hopefully summer will come soon
* the window in our bedroom doesn't close properly, which makes very nice sounds when it's windy (which is always)
* our neighbours are weird but nice, most of the time
* my job is not completely extremely boring all the time
* my colleagues are wonderful
* i have the day off today (i was planning to have my hair cut, go to the bank and do other things i never have the time to do otherwise. but i decided to sleep late, wear my blue teddy bear pyjamas, and just do lazy and relaxed things all day)
* i have an unopened bottle of coca cola in the fridge, and two new girly films to watch (the girliest film i could find when i was looking for one in our own collection was "lock stock and two smoking barrels"... so we had to go and shop after work yesterday)
* i don't get fat, so i can drink as much coca cola and eat as much chocolate and chips i like. sometimes it seems like almost all my female colleagues are on different kinds of horrible diets, and it's so nice being able to eat a pizza and look at their boring salads. (and anyway i think chubby old ladies are nicer than the skinny ones, so i will probably never have to learn what a calorie is :)
* my new slippers are so comfortable it's unbelievable
* i saw a bumble bee yesterday
* there are dandelions in sollefteå (not here in nyland yet)
* the sun is shining now and then
* i have bought new books with really nice covers

have to go and watch a soap on tv, the list might continue later  ¶ 12:15 PM
