Good things should always be shared, preferably on Thursday. I’m not sure why it must happen on Thursday, the alliteration isn’t all that great (Three Good Things Thursday???) it just seems right. Maybe to kick off a weekend? Maybe to regroup from the sucky people who you are forced to deal with during the first part of the week? Maybe just because the Gods or Fates or (Insert Diety) deem it so. Whatever. Here are the good things, not limited to three because I make the rules… Just because I make the rules, that doesn’t mean you can’t share your own good things, and because I am "like God" (according to a couple of children who shall remain nameless) I will allow you to share more than three, too. See, I am God-like aren’t I? All giving and loving and stuff. Whoever said I was evil and lacking in compassion, anyway???
On with the good, out with the suck, shall we?
* I found the blog I’d been looking for – it took three days of Blogmad hades but I did it! And it was good.
* My friend’s daughter gained weight which is better than me gaining weight.
* Chemistry is finished, finally. I soooo hate chemistry and I didn’t even have to take the class.
* Christopher likes his classes. So far. (fingers crossed?)
* My father discovered hidden "Plain Grandma" treasures and has decided I can have them. This is a blessing. He tends to sell these things in yardsales or put them on u-Hauls and then crash u-Hauls thus destroying all good Plain Grandma-ness.
* At least one of the treasures is orange! Like the bedroom! TW is so happy!
* Retro is in. I’m one heck of a happy woman because of this little tidbit.
* April is almost over. (shoot, I forgot my brother’s birthday! Must remedy that quickly before I break the string and cannot scratch item 69 off of my list in 11 months!)
* Until this week nobody had ever suggested I led an extravagant life. Even Filipina maids who made $10 a week had never suggested such a thing. I’m in heaven. I have arrived. If I had only known how easy it was, I’d have done it sooner!
* Laundry. is. finished. (expanded post on this wonder later in the day, I know you’re anxious for that)
* I have not been to the emergency room for a very long time. Touch and go but it has been avoided.
* My ex husband IS moving south. (I suppose he could always change his mind between now and May 31 but as of today, it’s official. There is no sarcasm in this good thing folks, not that I ever partake in sarcasm. I’m happy about this. For a half dozen reasons I will share with all of you lucky people – later, after he arrives but before he ticks me off and I wish him back to Jersey or Iraq or some other place where the President decides we need to fight a war)
And on that note, I’ll say adieu to my good things list. I wouldn’t want those of you less fortunate than I (those of you not living extravagant lives hahahaha) to feel all woeful and pitiful (woefulness is only allowed on Wednesday and pitifulness is allowed absolutely never unless you are a cute two year old or an idiot ex husband – another post on both of those will come at some point, no doubt).
Life is good, ladies and gents. I swear it is. You believe me don’t you? Of course you do.

Ha. Funny. “Life is good”. I had the same thought today. I felt this sudden burst of energy and happiness. Sun shining, spring, flowers,…
My list of good things:
– my husband
– my pets
– the people I love
– new brand of ice cream
– pictures accepted at stockexpert
– having the full use of my intellecutal capacities
– being able to laugh
Lies, dear, you cannot say “new brand of ice cream” and not share the name. Food is my life, I don’t eat it much but I need to talk about it a lot. Details.
Now that full use of intellectual capacities, that’s a really good thing. I need to work on that.
😉
It’s called Frusi in Belgium and made by Ola. I don’t know if it exists under that name in the US, though :(.
Cool. I don’t care if it is available here or not. I talk to people all over the place about food. This is good info. I’m researching. 😉
sarcasm is a good thing too denise….I should do this, maybe later once I’m home and not feeling so bitter 😉
You should definitely do it, bitter is a good time to do it. Helps quite a bit, til your ex husband who you said nice things about calls you back. Now I’m feeling the need to right Sucky Things Saturday, good thing it isn’t Saturday.
Yet another good reason not to get married or have children – my ex’s can just fade of into oblivion if I so choose.
Well…except the evil ex who had a nasty habit of popping up everywhere, even after I moved out of the apartment building we both lived in. But now that we’re in different cities I appear to be safe from that.
