...I'm feeling in need, though I shouldn't be... stoopid life...

I had to take my car to the garage today (they don't have points any more, they have pricey coils... *headdesk*) - on the bright side, it's right by a train station, so I could get within half an hour's walk of work this morning, and not be too late. On the other bright side, I drove towards the sunrise, and the fields were misty - I drove under strands of mist at one point! - and the sunrise was red, red red. It actually looks comparatively orange on this pic, taken from the station when it had died down a bit in intensity. It'll be interesting to see whether shepherds (or sailors) need to take warning though... It's looking blue-skyed and gorgeous so far, and it was frosty-cold...


I've been trawling for Wonderful Things, but it must be Monday everywhere, because I'm not coming up with much... And boss is being irritating again, and I have other-work that I should have started by now, and Things To Do, and just no motivation... What I did find was a few sites suggesting we ask the question What's good right now? I've got to admit, I'm struggling with that a little bit today too - stoopid me, cos there's lots of good things! The sky is still gorgeously blue, and there's interesting chat at [livejournal.com profile] ci5hq's new Beta Central feature. There!

What about you, happy flist - what's good right now? Cheer, please! *g*

Here, it was the little bit of snow we got overnight, making me very happy! I'm foolishly hoping for more! :)
And then I started looking through our trip pics to post a few, and remembered how much fun it was.
It doesn't hurt that it's a holiday here, either. *g*

Holiday's are definitely Wonderful Things - and snow! Another Wonderful Thing! And your trip photos... *sighs happily* I've to go to the dentist again today - part one, yet again, of a root canal - and I'll be home late. If I can get all my work done before that, maybe I'll get my photos out and start posting, as I keep saying I'm going to do... *g*

More of your photos would be very nice, but it *is* time consuming, to get them posted.
Eek on the root canal. I've never had one, but they sound evil. I hope it went okay!
Is your face pain related to sinus infections?

I'm sorry to say that I'm ready for more time off already, even though school just started up again. I'm fine once I'm there, but the get-go in the morning is a bit lacking.

And I still didn't get those pics posted - rats!

I've had root canals before, and they've actually been less stressful than ordinary fillings, but this one was a top molar, with apparently long and sneaky roots, and she practically climbed into my mouth to do it - it ached afterwards! But she'd warned me it might, so... (of course she's warned me of that before and it hasn't, so that was still a bit disappointing!) I think I did have a sinus thingie over Christmas, and perhaps it sort of confused itself with my tooth having a problem too... I actually do feel better since I was at the dentist, despite the ache, so... cross fingers!

I am so not getting-going this morning! I was actually okay the last couple of mornings, but I having gone to bed just slightly after 11pm instead of before it seems to have made an awful difference - my eyes just want to be closed... which is not considered good when you're at work, so I won't... *g* Sounds like we all need some perking up!
