Trivial things that make you happy - Part 3 - The Happyning

A "lapsed catholic", I was struck by the number of people wearing ashes on their foreheads yesterday, I don't remember seeing it on that many people in decades.

One cut across me when I was crossing, missing me by centimetres on their bike. Another was snarky when we had to share a printer, and they took exception to me having my printing come out after theirs. The number of cranky/mean people I met yesterday was well above average, and every one of them proudly sporting their ashes.

Th I'm a recovering catholic/active pagan and not tied to that type and the god they seem to think will forgive them their bad behaviour! TH

Happy happy that it crossed my mind that my computer might be able to turn an audio file into a text file, I had put it off as I was slow to load such info into an app I didn't know much about and pay for the privilege.

Not only did it turn it into text and formatted it to my liking, I asked co-pilot to break it down so I could see the nb info at the top of the doc, so I don't have to read all the fluff and just see the bits I want to see!

A real happy in a month that feels like it's endless birthdays/anniversaries/occasions that I can get something I want free!

Very trivial , but Elon Musk’s space ship blowing up seems good

My bloods are due next week, so even tho I have to be good, my visual cravings are incessantly incessant.

My compulsion for gooey brownies has abated and the past few days it's been intense cravings for fruit cake(pref with icing)

browsing in a local Dunnes I spotted a brack type loaf, down to 2€, not exactly what I was craving but a th none the less.

The Rugger Buggers crying into their Heinos as France spanks the " Team of Us"

After a good rest yesterday I was able to walk up to the shop , but more importantly down from it .

some fella that keeps popping up in the ‘people you may know’ section of Facebook…. I recognise him but can’t picture from where, I’m looking at the food menu of one of my lesser visited local pubs and there are a few photos of the staff and there he is, barman or manager there…Knew I knew him but couldn’t picture it…😎

love shops that actually tell you online what stock they have… need to pick up a repair patch tomorrow three clicks and it saves me going and driving around searching…. I know what branch, what department…and it’s close by.

a delivery I would have received tomorrow but for the public holiday…so Tuesday I’m thinking but instead the courier arrived today, which is very very surprising but very welcome.

grand stretch.

yeah i said it.

I was very very dubious abut using eyebrow mascara as mine are a strange shade with amazon strength greys interspersed.

Tried it ahead of an nb meeting and it went on my more easily than in my practice, survived the endless glasses maneuverers and face touching.

Its been 4 days now and despite me trying to take it off is still in situ, giving me confidence for the next wear and giving me some colour back in my face(or at least one part that isn't red)

Love that science took time out to invent/refine such a thing.

saw my gym crush today

Trivial things that make you happy was definitely not the passing of two great sporting legends Eddie Jordan and George Foreman but the fact that absolutely nobody had a bad word to say about either one.
So rare and nice to see nowadays.
