Things That Make Me Happy, March 20

Last nights BYU win over Gonzago. Congratulations to Jimmer and the Cougars! When they're all on, they are such a blast to watch. As one of my good friends says, the other teams can Fredette about it.

The left over mashed potatoes from tonights dinner that will see me through this last week of not eating solid food. Also blenders.

The three hours I got to spend at Barnes and Noble yesterday. Very creatively helpful, I only have a few plotting issues left before I can start the actual writing.

Jane Austen and Charlotte Bronte, because they always make me happy. Even just thinking about them makes me happy. Also Colin Firth.

All my awesome followers. And I'm totally serious, you guys really are awesome and are the reason I do this in the first place. Thanks for your thoughts and support.

Lonesome Dove, the book I'm reading right now, which says fart at least three times and still won the Pulitzer Prize. Ok, I know thats totally immature, but I find it so entertaining. At times my humor is pretty much as sophisticated as that of my three little brothers.

My three little brothers.

And this:
Happy writing!

Thanks for posting on my blog because it gave me the opportunity to check out YOUR blog, which I now adore. What a beautiful spirit you have. I can't wait to spend some time reading your back posts. Blogging is new for me (though writing is not), and I'm so impressed with the quality of your posts! Keep it up! ~Dana

Colin Firth always makes me happy. And Husband and I spend a *whole day* browsing in Exclusive Books on Saturday (the local equivalent to your Barnes & Noble). That also made me very happy. Although where do I find space for all those new books...

Sleeping in and my kids not fighting. Throw in a little peace and quiet for good measure and I'm in heaven. And thank you for posting on my blog, Sarah, it's nice to meet you! I'm just getting started with blogging and it's great connecting with people who love to write. James

That picture is somethin' else. Cutie!

I like thinking about what makes me happy; it's a nice mood lifter, and makes one aware of blessing, large and small.

Did I send you an e-mail re: the other day, asking "How's your sister?" I'm sorry! It was intended for another Sarah, and I got myself all confuzzled. :)

Such a sweet picture! And an awesome list. Three hours in any book store, or library, sounds like heaven to me. And now, I need to read Lonesome Dove. You had me at "fart"! Yeah. I'm the same way, sense of humor-wise.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. All your own wishes sound wonderful :) The picture is probably the favorite I've ever taken, glad it could make you happy too :)

@Janna: I think you did, actually, but thats ok :) I figured it was a mix up.

@Jeigh: Very highly recommended! Especially the fart parts :)
