Day 2: List 5 things that make you smile or happy.
This one is very apt for how I have been feeling.
1) My husband. His childishness, his love, his geekyness, his humour. Have really felt like a newly wed recently, just looking at him can make a sh*t-eating grin appear on my face. He’d say that he should be worried by that, and just hearing him say that in my head has me smiling again.
2) My cats. Their stupidity, their cuteness and their personalities.
3) Good food. Certain food items. Just noms. What can I say I like my food!
4) Crafting. Whether it be cooking, knitting, growing, crocheting or brewing, it makes me happy to create something good.
5) My future. Looking at my future, with my husband and my cats, all the good food that I can eat, all the time I will have once the PhD is over for me to be crafting. That makes me happy and makes me smile.
Until next time.
