What's the best thing that happened to you today?

So, I've been roaming the board today, and it seems fairly full of negativity...  shouldn't we all be celebrating the joys of life? 

I went through a really tough period of depression a few years ago, and something my hubby did with me every day helped keep me positive and happy, so I thought I'd bring it here!

What's the best thing that happened to you today?  He would ask me this every night when we went to bed.  When I have a bad day, he still does it.  :)

So, my best thing about today is this:  I was at work for about an hour, when I started to feel like I REALLY needed something to eat and to sit down for a minute.  I was serving a very nice lady, and she asked what was wrong (guess I looked a little pale!).  I said I was just a bit hungry, but would have to wait for my break to grab a snack, since I forgot to bring some nuts with me.  Well, I finished her transaction, and she left.  About five minutes later, she came back with some chocolate for me!  From my favorite chocolate store (Purdy's!), and it happened to be my favorite item!  (chocolate with caramel and walnuts...)  That absolutely made my day!

So tell me, ladies:  What's the best thing that happened to you today?  :)

    Getting chocolate sounds like a wonderful thing!   

    We have some friends visiting, and we went to do some sightseeing with them.  While there, we walked down this very long hill to some tidepools.  After wandering a little, we needed to walk back up, and then up another hill to get to the lighthouse.  While walking, a family stopped their car and picked us up, because they saw that I was pregnant.  It was very sweet of them :)

    The best thing that happened to me was coming home after traveling out of state and back in one day to find my parents came over and put up our Christmas lights. My DH and them set this plan in motion earlier in the week just to surprise me and bring me some joy after the week I had. I'm so grateful for their love and support. Def put a big smile on my face :)

    DD's school was hosting a parent's night out (pizza party and play time after hours).  We'd talked about it earlier in the week but dd was not interested in going and I wasn't going to force it because she still gets upset when we leave her at school.  When I picked her up in the afternoon she very excitedly came running up to me asking if she could go so we went with it.  She had a great night and dh and I got to have an impromptu date night.  We went for dinner at a small town tavern nearby and took the dog for a walk picking up dd on the way home.  It was a great way to start the weekend!

    You all have such great stories! The best thing that happened to me today is my Man came home for the weekend from school. He walked in the door and first thing he said was well hello there beautiful! I melt!

    Since it is still pretty early here, the best thing that happened to me so far today was waking up in my cozy bed surrounded by my DH and our furry zoo of animals in a room full of sunshine in a house that we own.  My oldest kitty climbs up on me and gives me little kitty headbutts with his soft, warm, fuzzy noggin - his way of saying good morning.  Our St. Bernard will climb up on the bed and try and snuggle into the smallest spot she can find and try and give us kisses.  Our other two kitties meow hello and come and get some pets. It is the happy little way I get to start each day.

    Aaahhh! You have a St Bernard! I'm jealous. :) 

    Best two things that happened to me today... my husband left an "I love you!" note on the fridge and my mom called me just to see how I'm doing. :)

    I like this idea, too! Good thinking. 

    Besides the Thanksgiving leftover buffet at my M&FIL's this morning... the awesome belly laughs I shared with my stepson on our way home was the best thing so far. It's always nice when your 17y/o just laughs with you and not at you for the silly things you do. :)

    DH and I made a huge amount of progress getting the nursery ready! Our sons will share a room until we find a larger house so, we moved out a huge storage piece today to make room for a twin bed for DS1. Just a bit more cleaning to do before we can move in his bed and personalize each side of the room. I'm exhausted but, it's so rewarding to see it coming together :-)

    DH and I were supposed to go with friends to cut down our Christmas tree . . . but it was raining all day and DH didn't want me to be sick.

    We chose to stay home and rented a movie and made homemade pizza and just spent the day together. He even went with me to the craft store to get things to make wall art for LO's room Big Smile

    A wonderful day!!
