Happiness is...

...being able to button my jeans without lying down on the bed

...being able to run with my dogs

...turning down a guy for a date (!!!) This actually happened to me today at my volunteer job -- a man asked me if I was married and when I said that I was he said, "all the cute ones are." I couldn't believe it. :yay: :yay: Even if he was exagerrating a little bit, he made my day.

Having the kid at the bank check out my driver's license for ID - see my birthdate and yell, NO WAY LADY! Yeah, that was great!

For me
 
Happiness is being able to wear "younger" clothes and hearing comments like. Oh I couldn't tell who was the teenager. Or "wow, you look great, what are you doing? I know you are doin something."

Happiness is not being recognized by your own daughter.

Happiness is knowing that I can lose ten more lbs.

I am happily married and will stay that way but it is kinda cool to get stares from men. I won't look at them in the eye, I'll never get rid of them. :wiggle:

saltnpeppa Sat, Oct-04-03 17:53

having my friends talk about me and how great I look. let's talk about me!

usedtobero Mon, Oct-06-03 04:47

seeing another 2lbs gone forever ....

.... oh and sneaking in to watch my 3 and 4 year old girls tucked up in bed, bathed, fed and sound asleep...

oh and having a glass of excellent dry white wine, garlic fried shrimp and green salad and not even missing the pasta...

.. and finally - saying goodbye for a very long time to my mother in law!

Sorry thats 4 things! I must be feeling very happy today - maybe its to do with the mother in law leaving!
