    List one thing that made you happy today, whether it be a raise at work, big sale on ebay/amazon affiliate, or you found out there's going to be a big sale this weekend at your favorite store...





    I'll start...

    A lady at work is collecting soda and water plastic bottle caps for a boy at her daughter's nursery. 1,000 caps will equal enough to one treatment for his leukemia. I collect bottle caps to feed my crested geckos. I'm able to do my part to help out by donating the ones that are the size their looking for. Just something that made me smile, how people can help by doing something simple as donating plastic bottle caps.

        Whitney  this probably belongs on the forum for silliest questions, but why do you feed your Geckos bottle caps?

      I was at my daughter's house this morning, and snuggled with my 4 year old grandson in a fluffy blanket out on their patio, watching the tree-trimmer's next door, cutting down a big tree. He was fascinated, and had a hundred questions--me, I just loved the cuddling, lol...big_smile

    Looking back on it, I have to say it was kind of "nothing" day.  hmm  I guess the best I have to mention is that it was a rainy day, but a couple of times during the grayness the sun did come out and light up the red foliage that I see out my window.  That - and I guess a particularly good cup of coffee I made in the morning.  smile

    The sun is shining, I have all my little animals around.  I see my goat being a YARD Goat....which makes me laugh cuz, well, he's not supposed to be. 

    What makes me happy everyday is the way my little Eskie rubs his eyes at the first glint of sunlight when I take him out in the a.m.

    What makes me happy everyday is the way my cats act as though the evening fast has made them famished.

    What makes me happy everyday is the way my horses whinnie at the first sight of human awakeness so they can eat because again the evening fast has made them famished.

    And what makes me especially happy is that Joe is out making a cross for Ben as the first anniversary of our accident is coming up.  He knows how important it is for me to find that place in which he passed.

    There was a desk sitting in a driveway beside a street.  The desk had a big sign on it that said "FREE".

    When I stopped to acquire the free desk (which I did accomplish), I also met two hitherto unknown neighbors...who gave me a great referral to a clinic which may finally have the "right" doctor for my disabled wife--who has been without medical care of any sort since April.

    If that HADN'T made me happy, my Happy Bone would've needed replacement for sure! big_smile
