Happiness is......

Is it a new car, with leather heated seats, air conditioning, 6 CD changer, turbo charged, kick ass bass? Maybe, but it ain't green. I drove it to Castle Douglas the other day ( a wee town with great shops, for those of you interested in visiting.), and smiled all the way home. Especially when I was driving by a loch and a guy on a sea-doo was sailing along with me. And playing hip hop, which doesn't suit the car (it reminded me of a bit in Lorenzo's Oil, where the dad is driving along listeing to classical music- I always wanted to be like that when I finally became an adult, but Missy Elliot sounds better, somehow).

Or is it your childs first representation of the family? I think it must be. I don't prompt Mae to draw certain things, but when she pointed out herself, me and Geoff in this picture my heart almost burst. No comments on likenesses please, for you non-parents who don't understand these things.

It's looking forward to more guests, although some have cancelled due to teenage pregancy of their cat. Woke up one morning to fine 5 kittens. They must have got it pregnant- bummer!

It's spring as well, watching the birds chase each other and make nests, new lambs, all the fun places that we went to last year opening again- a bit of variety. It's having a day off- ugh, working over holidays doesn't suit me at all, especially holidays associated with chocolate. On that note, happiness is also losing a stone. Lookin good!

Have a happy day!
