closequartersI must admit I'm struggling to find the happy today, because I woke up in the really nasty stage of my cold, after not sleeping well the night before, and I'm been fuzzy and energy-less and yet restless and bored today! Oh dear!

On the other hand, the whole point is to try really hard and find the little things, isn't it, so... here's one! I read this week's Reading Room story in the original zine, and that's the cover here, and then just kept going and read the a few more Pros stories. Elena's Shoes by Irene, and then Dance While You Can by Alexandra, and now I'm up to Fit to be Tied by Gwyneth Rhys, which I remember as something of a guilty pleasure years ago. So that'll be my cosy-in-bed-reading tonight, I think. (On that note, Reading Room was really really quiet this weekend, for some reason - is everyone off doing exciting things, or...?

Oh, and I've been catching up at last with the new series of Doctor Who at last, and enjoying it. Just watched ep five, the Tesla one.

People talking to me via my posts! That makes me happy! *g* Thank you for commenting! *vbg*

And yeah, my cold is definitely getting better, and that makes me happy! *g*

So glad your cold is getting better! I give you so many kudos for finding happy in everyday. I probably would have given up by now but there is always something we can find to be happy about if we look!

Shamefully it is four days later by the time I'm replying, but the good news is that my cold is even better... *g*

I must admit that some days are harder than others to find happy moments - but there's usually something, if I think hard enough. Actually it's usually something to do with being outside, and seeing nature, when I think about it - the rainbow, or birds in the distance, or glimpsing the moon... Or maybe I'm just lucky that those things do make me at least briefly happy. *g*
