byslantedlightMore sunshine and autumn gorgeousness today - and bonus Jack-o-lantern carving, because otherwise R and A wouldn't have seen a real one (they're away next week). I got a wow... from wee A, and R was very impressed by it too, so it was definitely worth £1! *g* 
Last day of work before a week's holiday is happy! *g*
Even disasters can be made happy though, can't they - first thing this morning I found an email saying my library books were overdue and I owed over £11 in fees (what?!) and even though I was sure it couldn't be right, I spent ages trying to find the webpage where I renewed them in my internet history - and then finding that the particular webpage never shows up as any more than the "this is the library" webpage, because I've renewed books loads of times online and there's no instance there at all (we went to the library later - turned out their computers have been glitchy over the last couple of days, and my books weren't showing as renewed, but they sorted it out for me). While I was doing that, my porridge boiled over in a hellish mess, and I had to clean that up. Gaaargh! I'd also just finished a book, so in desperate need of comfort before another R-intensive day I picked up an old favourite - Stargazy Pie by Laura Lockington, which is fluffy nonsense set in an eccentric family at Christmas time. Hurrah - another happy, even before work!
So I'm curious - has anyone else got particular comfort reading that they turn to? *g*
