I guess it's seeing an end to the project I'm working on that can't be put
aside because it's a gift, being invited to a lovely holiday dinner at a
friends house that will include a few good friends and her family, great
weather today dry and just warm, not hot and Puff curled up at my feet
gently snoring the morning away.

Happy New Year--

Lucille

Default Happiness is



stumbling upon a website where a guy posted a review about the
cordless mouse we couldn't get to work no how. He said the
instructions show the battery in the wrong way. Voila - problem
solved. I wrote him a message of profuse thanks.

....finding vanilla for 3 dollars for a large bottle.

....50% off sale of items from folded drug chain.

....sleeping thru the night.

Default Happiness is

a roof over my head and food in my belly;
a husband, family, and friends who love me;
eyesight and dexterity to stitch and knit with.

Happiness is a warm dog to cuddle with ... until she takes over the bed
and I'm sideways in the bed, pressed up against the headboard. ;-

Hard to believe in a queen sized bed with a cocker spaniel cross dog but
it's possible!

Cheers,

O lordy, my 25lb cocker took up much more space than my 65lb Tervuren
ever do! It was like sleeping with a rock in the middle of the bed!

My 8.5 lb. Puff does much the same. He spreads himself out right in the
middle and takes up at least 2/3 of the bed while I cling to the edge.

Could it be that we allow it and they take full advantage of us ???? ;*))

I think it's a tolerance thing: nothing disturbed Satin - he'd just
shift a little and go back to sleep. If I so much as turn over once
Cash is on the bed, he gets all huffy and leaves, because I'm disturbing
him.

How excellently written, Elizabeth. These ARE the things that truly
count! I am assuming you are including Cash and Harry as family.

Your friend,
Gillian
