    i'm happy because:
    I have awesome flatmates who I can talk to about a multitude of things.
    I am fast accepting who I am because of a couple of said flat mates.
    and I found a group of pagans on Facebook who have been more than welcoming to me and helping me learn more of my faith, and been super friendly and nice overall

    all in all year 2 at University, despite my lack of wanting to work, has been a success

    More relief than anything, but i approached my mum regards to my sexuality (point 2 of my previous) and she responded really nicely about it and was totally accepting. i've been an absolute mess for the past couple of hours as to whether or not i should tell her, and decided to. best decision i could have made. She also agreed to speak to my dad regarding it. as I couldn't face doing that myself, as much as i love him, he is far too unpredictable for me to know how he would react.

    I don't know WHAT to think. I HONESTLY don't know WHAT to think ... but I'm still happy. No one can take that away from me. :)

    I'm so freaking happy right now! Contented, no worries, no anger, no negativity in my head.

    - Found old friends and employers from my volunteer job on Facebook.

    - Two videogames (Dragonball Xenoverse 2 and Skyrim: Remastered) releases this week.

    - I just love my job; I plan to work there until I'm 100 years old -- or for the rest of my natural life.

    WOO!!! :superyesh::superyesh::cheerleader::cheerleader::superyesh::superyesh:

    I'm happy for several reasons...

    I'm drinking a pepsi out of a lion sippy cup.
    I have a pretty new phone that looks like a sparkly pink waterfall.
    I'm sitting on a heating pad, and my....you know.... is toasty warm.
    I have been making mermaid tails for my granddaughters, and they are almost done.
    The Cubs are playing their first World Series game tonight. I hope they win. I'll think positive, my son is a huge fan.

    The Cubs - yeah, is that not awesome or what?!

    I'm happy just because.

    I'm at home & not lonely for a change?

    Oh wait, that's TMI. Not good to appear needy. :)

    Another addition to the situation, my dad knows, and things are even better, my Dad admits he can be unpredictable, and understood why I didn't want to say anything.

    I'm happy because, well, I have never felt like i've known myself this well, in like, Ever...

    Listen, sorry I don't take you seriously. Live in the real world for awhile & you won't either. :)

    After a few gloomy months there is light at the end of the tunnel.

    I bought a house with my fiancé.

    I have a house trained puppy.

    Omg, house trained puppies are really something to be happy about! I had the cutest little black puppy I had to give away cause she tore everything up & peed on the carpet. Made me cry but I was afraid of the damage she might do to my apartment. Your avatar's pretty cool, btw, Lancie. And your name too. Cute. :supercute:

    This morning I was looking through my mail & found a 15 day old check from an imaging company I'd overpaid. I'd put it aside because I thought it was a bill I'd need to pay at the beginning of the month. Sometimes my expectations are so negative I miss out on a blessing. :)

    I am happy to wake up in love, and with a beloved name on my lips... my first thought in the morning...
    I also dreamt that my sister is getting married...
    I am happy to have my morning coffee, replete with sensual expectations...
    I am happy to feel.
    I am just happy!

    The Brexit process has been tripped up somewhat. I should imagine it's only delaying the inevitable, but it pleases me nevertheless.

    I feel that the god damn universe will unfold as it should, and I am completely OK with that. Acceptance is key, and once I swallow the latter pill, I get a sense of peace and some happiness.

    Whatever happens, be it ugly or pretty, or even pretty ugly, it remains fine in the end. It is what it is. It is really judgement that defeats us and messes everything up for us.

    Good night Nellie, or should I say Mary Sue.
