What made you happy today?

[ShrekDawg]

Same (almost)! I'm a minimalist in almost all other aspects. Part of me wants to go full Steve Jobs and wear the same exact outfit every day. It would certainly make me happy, and who's going to notice/care?

Oh wow lol

For the little (or not so little) things in life that make you happy. I'll start with two things that made me happy today.

Today, my roommate got slushies delivered and surprised me with a cotton candy slushy.

My new company got our MSA (Master Service Agreement) and SOW (Statement of Work) from our lawyers, so we're all set legally when we sign new clients.

idk but my rooster dancing when he sees me always makes me happy also spending time with my chickens.

Caught my interest! Why Dawn? I know they wash oily baby ducks with it in commercials. Is it extra gentle?

I think it is. Most shampoos seem to leave residue in my hair and can even be irritating to my scalp. I've been using Dawn for a couple of years now and am very happy with it. No perfume, rinses clean. And can't beat price!

The last time I wore makeup voluntarily was when I was in a play in 9th grade. I wore it involuntarily in college when my dad took me out to a symphony concert in NJ and said I had to wear a skirt or dress and makeup.

This is my face. At age 62 (last year), a woman said this to me:

"I have to ask you, what do you use on your skin?"

I gave her a dumb look, not really understanding the question.

"You have such beautiful skin! Really! What do you use on it?"

"Uh... nothing... I wear a big floppy hat to avoid the sun. I never smoked, I don't drink, I try to eat a good diet of unprocessed food." I shrugged my shoulders. "I guess I got lucky with good genes?"

I'd love to buzz my hair off, but I think I'd be too cold 9 months of the year. And hubby would NOT like it a bit. So I just keep it in a pony tail. Every now and then, I chop a few inches off. My hair styling bill is zero dollars, a couple times a year.

I cut off my long, long hair 4 or 5 years ago because, after surgical procedures in both shoulders, I could not take care of it any more. But I'm ready to grow it out again, I hate spending money on maintaining it. It's in that in-between stage where I can't do much with it. But it will grow out and I'll be sble to tie it up or braid it again.

My adapter so I could charge one of my laptops came. Pretty happy about that.

I’m 48.
No makeup for me. Been off that for 15 years.
(I have worn a little on very special occasions like weddings. But very minimal and No eye makeup. Just concealer and lipstick/lipgloss.)

AND I stopped coloring my hair about 5 years ago. Healthier hair and not having to color every couple months. It’s naturally dark, so the gray looks silver.

No make-up here for 25 years either but...
I did just make an appointment for next month with a famous professional make-up artist to teach me how to start wearing make-up again.

I have a ton of clothes. I wear the same few outfits all the time. They look alike. My best friend and I call them out uniforms even though they aren't uniforms.

What will make me happy today:
Getting downtown and parked safely.
Sitting on the mezzanine at DeVos hall, hearing the Grand Rapids Symphony tune up, and watching my friend Judy (piccoloist) through my binoculars.
**Listening to Beethoven's 9th Symphony.**
Being the crazy lady who leaps to her feet afterward and yells, Bravo, Beethoven!
Getting home safely will round it out and make for a great day.
