Happy Fives

Picture from here.

A happy Monday almost always guarantees a good rest of the week, so I'm doing my Happy Fives post today:

  • After weeks of procrastinating, I finally finished writing up my research proposal.
  • My hair looks really shiny today.
  • I'm making crab linguine for dinner tonight - looking forward to it!
  • I received a compliment from the boss.
  • I won onecraftyfox's giveaway! Thank you so much for making my day wonderful.

What are your happy fives for today?

Oooh!

I've only been up for 2 hours but my happy things so far:

* There are still many many hours for me to paint and be creative today
* I got a wonderful e-mail from an artist I admire who told me not to be afraid of painting because I obviously have talent! Wow! Will definitely try...
* I'm feeling a bit better day by day from having a bad case of bronchitis
* The sun is shining
* and I have chocolate!

Have a happy rest of the day!
