So, Miss H from the World According to Miss H has passed on the Happy 101 Award. Thanks honey!

Whilst Miss Smidge is not actually known for being a barrel of laughs/cheerful place (sorry). I’m honestly not this bad in real life… this is my place to, well, offload all the crap i don’t want to moan about. Anyways, as it’s a new year’s resolution to change all that, this is a good place to start. Ill still be me, but there will be less of the wanting to cut my wrists in jealous of not having your life kind of shit….

I’m digressing. The point of the Happiness award is to List 10 things that make you happy, try to do at least one of them today, and link back to the person that tagged you. Then tag 10 other bloggers that brighten your day.

Here we go:

Finnegan and Lily

Top of the tree of happiness has to be my cats (sorry Boy). Since adopting Fin nearly 2 years ago and Lily 1 year ago my life has changed completely. I never thought id be a good pet owner, being far too laxidasical and un-mother-like, but i  love my two annoying furballs despite the continuous demands for food, sick on the carpet, accidents on the bed and the fact Lily has morphed into a heffer because i let her eat too much….

The Boy

The third thing id save in a fire has to be the Boy. Hot, loving, naughty, cheeky, obnoxious and despite being down right annoying I love him to bits…

My family

I’m thankful for how close we have all become recently. We have our ups and downs, but i’m happy to have them on my side and of their ability to make me scream with laughter!

Planning for the future

It might be jumping the gun, but for once i have been looking forward, planning, thinking of the timing.. i might just be ready to settle down and cope with those sleepless nights.

Science fiction

Yes i am a geek and no i don’t care… Sci-fi taxes my brain like anything else. Im always looking out into the world and sci-fi makes me look out into the universe and potentially beyond. Sci-fi makes you realise life is very short and precious.

Blogging

Pretty much nuff said. I’ve been doing this for 4 years and there is no sign of me stopping yet. Thanks for sticking by me guys and gals!

Cooking

Despite the fact i eat a lot of takeaways i love to cook, my meatballs are legendary!

Travelling

I can never do enough travelling, next year we plan to head to the Lake District, Wales, Paris, Milan, Venice, Rome and maybe Sicily and then hopefully Australia for Christmas, popping into Hong Kong on the way… so excited about 2010.

Decorating my flat

I’ve recently moved back into my old tiny flat and im finally starting to put my stamp on it after years of it being a rented student hole.

Smoking

I love smoking, but it has to go in the New Year. Not smoking will make me happy in the long run…
