One Thing That Made You Smile Today?

The world would be a much better place if it was run by little dogs.
Bite everyone??? (Except a tiny entrusted circle).

…I’m not entirely sure I disagree with that?

But the “be in near-constant distress”, and needing actual constant/consistent soothing & approval & guidance to maintain even a semblance/shell of sanity… I rebel against, in principle.

Although it’s not necessarily an inaccurate picture of our neurotic, despotic, narcissistic leadership at large.

Our world, IMO, is already run by little dogs.

I saw a cute dog today, something in the vague realm of a jack-russel, but bigger, with softer face. He was cute, I think older, seemed jolly in his own lane, and placid.

I normally like dogs from a distance (The ones that I like) but this one seemed nonchalant enough that I kind of wanted him to come up to me. Little spring in his tail.

Also was approached by a collie… working line. Very calm and nice. Stopped briefly for a pet and then carried on. I like these dogs, the way it looked at me reminded me of my Nan’s dog… poor thing is really showing his age, he’s in good hands, though.
 
Little dogs can be damaged just like people. That said, they are generally good judges of character and quite frankly some people need biting.

I am pretty happy today as it appears my New Zealand citizen registration was approved. I received a text from DHL last night about a package from NZ arriving on Friday. I checked my bank card record online and found they charged me for the registration and passport fees. They would not have charged the passport fees if I was not a citizen so it looks like a done deal. This is my Plan B if my wife and I can’t figure the marriage issues out. Now I can actually make a timeline and she will have to make her decision otherwise I am moving to NZ. Being in limbo for the past 5 months has been unbearable.
 
This wasn't actually today, but i happened across the photo again today, and my memory being what it is, it was a nice surprise.

Apparently dancing Snoopy has 3 feet!

What made me smile today is realizing that the ex narcissistic boyfriend does not have control over me. It's been over a year. The thought of him doesn't bring the anxiety and hurt like it used to. It's his birthday today. He's not getting a message from me for sure. If I should see him in person, I will be at peace. I know who I am. I'm above who he is and all that he has done.
