What Made You Smile Today?

I thought it'd be nice to have a thread we could look at to lift our spirits up.

Basically you'll just answer a question: What made you smile today?
It can be absolutely anything, from the most superficial happenstance to a most profound experience, but tell us. Share with us that which brightened your day.



What made me smile a little while ago was my packed lunch that I brought from home. It was healthy and delicious and was thinking about it since 10AM

Getting back home a few minutes ago, and being able to get off my feet for a while.

And.....Getting to read for a little while today.

Just arriving home safely after driving home from school, through a snowstorm.

Just geting nice comments today from some online friends,made me smile..

Aw, I like this thread!

Ok, this one's going to be corny, but it totally put a smile on my face! My hubby called from work already this morning and I thought something was wrong. Turns out he was just calling to say "I love you"!

It's our 18 year anniversary on Sunday so maybe he's just gearing up for that!

(P.S. to Pam...glad you got home safely!!)

Thanks Savannah, and Amy. We ended up with a snow day, so I got to sleep in. That made me smile anyway, lol. Though the shoveling part did not.

Awww, Amy, I don't think that's corny at all. That was very sweet!

Happy Anniversary! We celebrated our 18th in July.

Amy, that isn't corny at all - It's definitely a great reason for a smile!

I put the finishing touches on a trio this morning, so I'm smiling. AND, I've been able to stay off my foot almost all morning. Two reasons to smile.

I'm finally getting over the flu and for that I'm thankful!! You don't really appreciate feeling good until you feel really bad...

Well Amy and Pam ....guess 1990 was a busy year for all three of us. My 18th will be September 15th!


The little girl I babysit (Emma) kept saying something I couldnt figure out....(She just turned 2) I finally made out "Max and Boobie"....but if any of you watch Nick Jr. you know she was trying to say "Max and Ruby". ( This is a cartoon about two sibling rabbits named Max and RUBY)
I'll have to work on that one with her! :Hahaha:

LOL...that's cute that several of us have been married the same # of years!

Kathy, glad to hear you're feeling better....the flu is NO fun!

Gin, too cute about the two year old you babysit for! Max and Boobie!! LOLOL...yep, we watch Max & Ruby here too! Not sure if you were around when I posted this, but awhile back my daycare boys (both 3) were playing 'doctor' with my Fisher Price dr. Kit, and the 'doctor' said to the 'patient', "Now open your mouth wide...I think I see a frog in your throat!"

A baby girl I noticed in the supermarket, who repeated to her mother that she was very proud of being Argentine.

Vanesa.

Aw, that's sweet Vanesa. How old was she?...(must be a pretty 'precocious 'baby!' )...

I bought David Archuleta's "Imagine" song from iTunes and have it on my iPod. :headphone:

David finally got to talk to the Superintendent about my s-i-l situation and Damis had his job interview today. That all really made me smile!

FRIDAY! B/c that means it's the weekend, and I actually have most of it off, so it made me smile

Yes, me too. I am so tired and just ready for the weekend.

Our cat we took to the parents of my boyfriend and she was having so much fun!
