From 12:30 until probably 9pm today, my day is planned. So I think I’m going to take an hour now to try and salvage my mood so that it doesn’t badly influence the day itself. I am therefore going to write a list of 7 things that make me happy, 7 chosen because it’s supposed to be lucky. Here goes.
- Text messages before I go to bed that say simply “<3″.
- A new Interweave Knits with some really awesome patterns. I’ve already started to dream about them.
- Going HOME for Thanksgiving, home to see and touch and talk to people that I love and that love me back. This is the big one for me. I am so isolated here at school (not to mention cold). Also, I am going to mercilessly abuse two cats with hugs and kisses. So there.
- NOT having to frog knitting. (because that’s really a mood-killer and I have to do that again. this is why I need to just knit socks for myself, they always seem to turn out right.)
- Excitement about going on the adventure of a lifetime.
- Amazing blogging and IM friends that keep me company while I’m working away.
- I am going to have the BEST Christmas of my LIFE this year. (Let’s hope it doesn’t get spoiled by “presents”.) Fingers are crossed that it keeps me from being a grinch!
So there’s my 7 things that make me happy. Tell me some of yours! I could use some cheering up with happy things.
EDIT: LOL, see Rebee’s comment for the definite 8th happy thing. Will tell you all about it soon.

I am defineatly with you on the going home for thanksgiving…but I only live 2 hours away from my house. Still, NO DORM FOOD FOR A WEEKEND!!!!! YAY!!!!
Also, having books to read…not heavy books, either, books that don’t require a lot of thought process.
