The all purpose happy feelings thread

[urnofosiris]

Select, Copy & Paste:



Aside from being a place where we can share our love for Willow and Tara, Amber and Aly or talk about LGBT subjects the Kittenboard is also a place where people can talk about what is going on in their lives, both the good stuff and the bad. This can be done every day in the daily thread or in individual threads started by Kittens to talk about important personal events. As an addition to that the mods have decided to start 2 threads where kittens can share happy or crappy feelings.



You can find the crappy feelings one here



So if you are feeling exceedingly happy you can post the how, when, why or who here. Whether it be because you finally won the lottery or because that annoying person from work or school stepped into that big pile of shit you that you just missed or because the sun is shining on your day off instead of it raining cats and dogs, so you won't have to spend the entire day sneezing and itching because you happen to be allergic to cats and dogs, or you can post because you are happy that I will finally stop typing now.



Now on with the thread, feel free to feel happy now and hopefully not crappy later.

OK, I have a number of general all purpose happy feelings to share. First, my computer is allowing me to post for the first time in months!!! I don't know why it's working, but it makes me happy that I can now give a big shout out to the great authors on PENS. Next, we had an ultrasound today, and our perfect baby girl that is due on Jan 6 is doing perfectly. My better half has had a wonderful pregnancy, so we are feeling doubly blessed. So I hope all the kitties get a happy today

[FlereImsaho]

Congrats Hushpuppy! A new is a perfect way to start the Happy Feelings thread. Jan 6 is so close. You must be very excited. I wish your family many happy days.



I think this thread is great. Hopefully there will be lots of posts here!

I just wanted to post my happy thought for the day. Actually, it's something that I have learned to live by. I like to look at my life, and focus on the positive things. Perception of your own life is extremely important. No matter how bad your day, week, or even year has been, look at the good things that have happened. I am so grateful for my life ... I have my health, a roof over my head, food on my plate, and an amazing partner to share it with. Every day I focus on these happy things, and, you know what? Life is good!!!



OK, I'm going to walk off into the sunset now!



think a happy thought

[wiltar]

Can I just pop in and tell you all how I am soooooo happy with this Happy Feelings Thread? I mean, there is no thing better than happiness, so yay!



Now even if I ever have crappy feelings I can just go here and get all happy with the happiness I read about here. Great idea mods!!!!

Well, I'm posting in here because I'm happy. Very happy. This is a good time and it's wonderful to be around here right now. And hey, did I mention the fancy dress New Year's Eve party? Hee.

I'm happy because - as I said last night in the daily thread - someone wants to publish my book, Hoosier Girl. I spent this morning going over the proposed contract they sent me, comparing it to some advice on contracts that I got from WritersMarket.com. It looks like a reasonable enough deal, although I do have some questions and I'm tempted to ask one of the lawyers in my family to look at it.



The company is Royal Fireworks Publishing of Unionville NY. They market themselves as publishers of "books for gifted children, their parents and teachers," and they say they do a lot of promotional effort to the educational sector as well as the bookstore market. I've already got a sale lined up for them - a woman in my church choir is already asking when the book will be out so she can order several copies for the young readers' program at Cal State LA.



Yes, this is definitely a happy-feelings kind of day.

I'm happy because this morning Santa brought me an engagement ring. This J-Ho is now permanently off the market.



I's gettin' married.

Ah Jho...my very own Jho. Darnit, I was working up to asking you to marry me in the next millenium as well.



Oh wait. No I wasn't. Um, I can accept defeat gracefully.



Or y'know, not. Hee.



Congrats love; if it's what makes you happy, then I'm all for it.

[Rosenberg]

Julia, that’s wonderful news! I’m glad to hear that Santa was so good to you. You must have been sort of a good girl after all, in spite of your assertions to the contrary. Congratulations and good luck, and may you live happily ever after!

[Dumbsaint]

Thanks for the well-wishing, Kitties. Jerri was teasing me last night and said that one of her first ideas for proposing to me was to do it on the Kitten board. Heh. "Because then I could be sure I had your complete attention. " was the gist of it. That ho. She went with a slightly more romantic route, though.



And Rosenberg, along with the key to my engagement ring, I also got a lovely selection of naughty odds and ends in my stocking, including my first pair of handcuffs.



I know, I'm shocked that I didn't already own a pair, too. And I call myself a whore. For shame.

Spank me, I'm Julia.

[Kendahl897]

Congratulations Bob..You deserve it..If your book is anywhere near as good as your essays, then I too look forwar to it's publication..

And congratulations Julia...Now it's time to start planning your honeymoon, and then the decor of the nursery, and then...never mind..Be happy

[FlereImsaho]

Congratulations Bob!



Congratulations Julia!



Much coolness in this thread today.

[Willow Rocks]

Congratulations plus extra congratulations for having a sig that makes me laugh!

[jixer]

Hello Kittens-



Wow. Babies and rings and book deals, oh my! I LIKE this thread. My happy news is my wife and I have five days off TOGETHER starting Saturday. And you know what WE'LL be doing.



Catching up on the latest movies, of course.



And a happy word of advice. Flannel sheets.





Now get out there and have a great New Year!

“And Rosenberg, along with the key to my engagement ring, I also got a lovely selection of naughty odds and ends in my stocking, including my first pair of handcuffs.”



Your virgin pair of handcuffs? Well, I must admit, I’m shocked! Perhaps Santa got his list mixed up and they were actually supposed to go to someone else. You know... maybe you could have them bronzed, like a first pair of baby shoes. That is, after you’re finished using them for whatever purpose you might have in mind. And I hope you enjoy all the other little naughty goodies that were in your stocking.

[MAISEY12]

Congratulations Julia & Jerry.



Handcuffs and goodies.......what a great way to celebrate your engagement

Oh, wow. Just a flood of happy in here!



Congratulations to both Bob and Julia. May your respective futures bring you happiness and fulfilment.

[relativegirl]

Wow. I wander away from the board for a few days and all sorts of happiness starts to break out.



First and foremost, my dear , congratulations indeed darlin'! You deserve every form of happiness and I'm very happy you've had such a Merry Christmas. Just one question though . . . when Santa brings you an engagement ring, does that mean you've been extra naughty or extra nice???



I've been very happy myself of late and, well, it's addictive!

I like blinkin', I do.

[tommo]

Well, I'm happy today (this is becoming a personal best; two days in a row...) because my brother and sister-in-law visited and I do love them. They've been very good to me this year. They didn't even mention the whole "lesbian bedroom with pictures of half-naked Amber and Aly" decoration either. Hee. In fact, I think my brother was rather impressed.

Wow!! congratulations to Hushpuppy, Bob, and Julia!



I've been thinking a lot about happy feelings recently. At this time last year I was confused, desparately lonely, and suicidally depressed. I have some wonderful friends who stuck by me, called me every day to make sure I got up, and urged me to get help. Also about a year ago I found the Kitten. Since then I've come out, to myself, my friends, family and at work. I've been amazed, and feel very lucky, that the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive - even from parents of students and former students. Most importantly, I also met my girlfriend, who makes me feel like I'm not alone for the first time in my life. I'm going to visit her tomorrow , and we already are planning visits in the spring - when she will meet my family! - and arranging to live together next summer. It's been quite a year - I never thought I would be this happy. I feel so blessed.



Wishing all of you a year of health and happiness. to my love.
