I'm cold and I'm idle and I'm happy.

I'm loved and I'm missing people and I'm happy.

My home life is in flux, and yet I'm happy.

Sometimes, when the world and its weirdness isn't able to get to me, I feel like I'm under a lucky star, and I don't even *believe* in lucky stars.



Today I get to see my munchkins.

Today I might get to see [livejournal.com profile] trinker if zie's free.

Tomorrow I get to see [livejournal.com profile] someotherguy and [livejournal.com profile] sogwife.

Thursday is my 46th monthiversary with cute-poet-chick.

I so know where you're coming from -- the world is going to hell, the economy's in the tank, both of us will be out of work soon, and I've never been happier now that Amanda has moved in.

I'm so glad things are good for you despite it all. Hope the situational stuff works itself out *soon*. Strangely, my happiness doesn't seem to be tied exclusively to the fact that I'm in love. But yeah, it doesn't hurt.

This resonated with me so much.

Despite everything in my personal life (and haven't I talked about it all enough? :)) I'm happy. Depsite the fact the world is going to hell in a handbasket, I'm happy. Most of it has to do with people I count on coming through with flying colours, but, as I tried to explain in some other post, there's this still center core of myself that is calm and solid and keeping me grounded.

I'm glad for you, sweetie :):).

I'm glad for you, too. :-) I'll be even gladder when I see that Tim is home and safe, to be honest, but yeah. I tried to explain this to [livejournal.com profile] sogwife a little yesterday. Part of my happiness is that amid all the chaos, all my loved ones love me, no one's upset with me, etc. (I react badly to being "in trouble" and I've had some of that to contend with this year.) But the lion's share of my general good mood for about the last year or more seems to truly be independent of circumstance. (Which is not to say that being loved by so many remarkable people isn't happymaking, because ohmygosh it is.)
