Half Full Friday!

Half Full Friday is a series of weekly posts that Eyegirl originally started in June 2009.  We believe that a lot of our happiness is determined by our attitude about the things that happen to us.  So by participating, I'm deciding to see the glass as half full instead of half empty; I'm choosing to concentrate on the positives instead of dwelling on the negatives.  The Half Full Friday posts are a way to do just that.  They're a list of the things in my life that have brought me happiness over the past week.  I'm determined to find something good in each day.  Are you?

For the next week, I'd like to challenge each of you to keep a list of at least one thing that brought you happiness each day.  Be sure to link up here once you've posted your list!  (This isn't a blog hop so please only link up if you've participated by posting your happy list.  Thanks!)

I enjoyed a four day weekend with my boys!

My weekend was very productive!  Got caught up on homework, cleaned the house and visited with friends.

I didn't have to park off campus like most people did on Thursday!

Class was cancelled all week for one of my classes!  

My hips and ovarian cysts are feeling much better!  Both were quite painful on Wednesday.

Got my taxes done and I'm getting a fat refund check!

My boss' last day is tomorrow.  He's one of the nicest bosses I've ever had.  It'll be weird to have a new boss now.  I've met the girl who is taking over for him temporarily, at least.  She seems nice enough.  It was her first day though and everyone is always on their best behavior on their first day.  I'm wondering how things will change.  Hopefully things will only get better.

Bert could use some power of the paws.  He ate half a tennis ball and had to have emergency surgery to remove it yesterday.  He came through all right but the vet has said the next 72 hours are critical.  

13 showed me some love:

Oh... hope Bert will be all good by now. We'll keep him in our thoughts and prayers and will send him the POTP.

Glad you got to spend some time with your boys and have had a better week this week. Go check your cysts ya... don't let them get too big. Prayers for you too. *HUGS* Have a great weekend!
