What Made You Happy Today?

My oldest son is home for the weekend. He came from college because Sunday is election day in Argentina and voting is mandatory.

I mindfully became involved in my cooking my organic meal and spent four hours dicing, slicing, steaming & woking without noticing! When I finished...it tasted grand (which is not always the case for me with trying strange looking veggies)!

I felt sophisticated and was grateful for the donated box by my son's friend. Sometimes...I feel happy when I am grateful too.

The absurdity of life made me happy today :laugh:

After a long week expecting my grandson to be born but then my daughter would be sent home, we are now sitting in the waiting room! Only a matter of time now!

Well it is a new day, but outside of this and since I'm awake, due to being additionally stressed just before bed - I am happy that this past evening my daughter, husband and I made it out to the mall and for the shared joy and enjoyment in being able to do so and for some Halloween costume purchases.

As for the wee morning hours, the night before, I am happy that instead of feeling once again helpless and powerless and my health and reason at the mercy of another family member, I chose to walk right out the door at the first insult and his ongoing resentful game of crowding and confusing me, and I continued walking for 3 straight hours.

After, 3 hours of straight out walking in some healthy cold, I reached a police station and was able to get a taxi home from there. The bonus was that not only did I not have to allow manipulation, nor be made to feel mercilessly devalued and controlled, but all day earlier my body felt healthier and mentally and emotionally I was empowered.

This all made me happy.

Had a wonderful run in the sunshine today.

Yesterday at 11:06 in the morning my grandson was finally born by c section weighing 9lbs and 11oz. A big baby but oh so cute. During his birth it was found out that the umbilical cord was wrapped 2x around his neck. The day would have been a very sad day if they hadn't done the operation!

I did some dusting and de-cluttering this morning. I like doing a little bit of this at a time. Just trying to keep up with things to keep everything neat and clean here.

The result of the election in my country. I feel happy and relieved.
