Stuff to be happy about/grateful for

[gatesofsteel]

I have a very cool 3x3x1 inch journal that I just started using for a new Happy/Gratitude List, but it's fun to share such things here, too. There used to be a comm where people shared theirs, but it's been inactive for a couple years, sadly. I had a Happy List going for almost a year several years ago I discovered the book 14,000 Things To Be Happy About.

So here's a short quick list for today:
people I love
people who love me
friends, both in meatspace and cyberspace
receiving very unexpected gifts
snail Mail
diet Pepsi
tootsie Rolls
my five cats (there will be an update about them soon)
art supplies and being able to afford buying some
books and being able to afford buying some
my Kindle
free Kindle books
Art Journaling
Art Journaling/Mixed Media magazines, like those published by the Somerset Studio/Stampington group, and the Cloth Paper Scissors/Interweave group
communities to share art journaling, like jr__nal
Star Trek and only five more months till the new one comes out
role playing
bats (the animals)
Virtual Secret Santas
Pizza with double pineapple. All the pineapple!
The historical romance novels of Mary Jo Putney, especially those set partly in Asia
Using palette knives to paint with acrylics and wondering what they can do
good strong central heat when it's in the 30s outside
