Does no-one have anything positive to add to the list????
My addition is that I finally made it to work today.  (Check Venting for details.
Come on everyone, something good please, or I will have to chuck the list and say poop on it.

Furgittit,
 
Sounds like a great day!
 
The sound of phones ringing is overrated...enjoy the silence!

I don't know if this is positive or not, but I will be positive about it, my phone was disconnected today.  Yay, no more creditors calling saying to give me money, no more friends and family calling saying "solve my problems" (hopefully they won't take advantage of my cell phone, oops, I turned it off).  It was disconnected because they hadn't received my paymt that I made over the weekend.  Oh well, they will have it by tomorrow and then our phone and internet will be back up and running on Thursday.
Hubby drove me to work today in my van and he will be driving our daughter to her badminton tourney tonight (he has never driven the kids to any of the extra's, he is turning a new leaf).  He isn't even angry about having no internet at home, definitely a shocker for me.
Sun is shining and it is beautiful outside, I took a breather at lunch and got some fresh air, about 10 minutes.
I hope the rest of you have a great day.

Wildcat,
The book is called Night World by L.J. Smith, my daughter really thinks it is almost as good as the Twilight series.  I am not to keen on the kids that plays the lead vampire.  But that is what drives the kids wilds now (I'll take Val Kilmer over this kid).  But then again check out the websites for the next movie New Moon, their are a couple of up and comers in the Wolf Pack that unfortunately are way too young but pretty darn cute ( I know one from the old neighbourhood, won't say who, as this would possibly lead to people knowing my identity).  Bragging again.  So that in and of itself makes our household huge fans of the series, especially my teenage daughter.  AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
As for my list of good things, I will not taint this string with anything not positive (this is my mantra when I come into this string).  My hubby finally drove my new(er) van (I bought a used van in October and he hadn't driven it at all (his doctor said no winter driving).  He likes it, for a mini-van.  Hubby was offered part-time work, driving weekends, or when he can (friend of his) yay, when I get his truck registered and filled with gas, he is out-of-here , if only for a few hours a couple of days a week.
Well that is it.  I hope everyone else out there has a couple of good things to add to the list, even if you don't add it to the list, smile and know that you have something positive to cherish, even if for a little while.

I have the first two of the four Twilight books (I wait for the paper backs in english to come out - they are all in paperback in french).
I saw the movie but was not impressed. I guess my idea of seductive vampire is not the same as the present teenie.

Sorry Wildcat, I can't remember the name of the book, I will ask my daughter.  She is really into the Twilight Series, she has read it a million times and watched the movie a gazillion time (she is so excited waiting for the next movie to come out because we used to live by one of the actors and I hung out (drank) with his mom).
As for my payroll lady, we sat and discussed the matter of my getting the proper deductions and I showed her how to do it, and she is fully informed now and has no issues with following the proper procedure (yay).

I will begin this week off with a few good things that happened over the weekend.  Again, I am bragging but I will take what I can get.
Got housework and laundry done, took down Christmas lights, cleaned out the shed, took the empties in (wow, holds their value better than RRSP's), tidied the yard, my son took down the wheelchair ramp (hubby can now do the steps), son and I cemented the satellite pole (so we won't have to keep going up and down to reaim the satellite), my son and I fixed my hubby's truck.  My daughter and I went shopping and she bought another vampire book.
The sun shone for most of the weekend and now winter is back (hiding all the ugly mud).
All in all it was a really good weekend.
I hope to hear about some of the good stuff that happened to you guys over the past few days.

Great day for you!
 
Small victories make you smile, this was a big accomplishment and a nice compliment from the men!
 
Good for you!

My van is working now, my son and I fixed it.  My neighbour lent me his Mustang to pick up the alternator (he offered, I didn't have to ask).  Got checked out at Pick n Pull (hot, hot, hot) and many offers to help me (not by really cute guys but hey it's the thought right?)
Everyone have a great weekend and let's see if we can have lots more good stuff added to this list by Sunday.
