I am ecstatic that the photorescue advanced pc software I purchased has resurrected four thousand photos from a drive previously impervious to all attempts to resuscitate.

Ecstatic, I tell you.

I was thrilled by finding the IRS refund check in the mail, but I believe I'm happier for you, BigV. Four thousand photos almost lost? That would kill me! 'Tis good that the software worked, yes indeed.

Damn. That is a beautiful place. Just awesome.

What kind of trees are those? With the pinky-purple blooms.

Thanks! The big ones are ornamental cherries. There's also a weeping cherry and a crab apple tree.

This one was pretty too...

Your yard is like something out a dream, jinx. Beautiful! Must be great to look out over that in the mornings.

I love it, it's brief but awesome. Supposed to rain tomorrow and it'll be all downhill from there...

Things that are making me happy today:
-I got my car back from the body shop! Woohoo! The folks there did an awesome job. It looks great, and it is SO nice to be mobile again after a week and a half of being stranded.
-Car came back just in time for me to be able to swing out to pick up a few decorations for Kitsune's birthday. He had a final exam to take and was home late, but at least I got the table decorated for the nice dinner I cooked him.
-I aced my last class, and get to go pick up all of my final assignments today.
-Both of my parents will be coming up for my graduation this weekend. My mother has a deep fear of driving -- I think it probably qualifies as a phobia -- and she lives four hours away. Last year, when I got married, she was trying to convince me to come pick her up before the wedding but eventually got a friend to drive her. For this weekend she decided to drive herself up, with a responsible friend in the passenger seat for advice/support. I am very, very proud of her, and ecstatic that she gets to come see me walk. Prayers/good wishes/positive vibes for her to make a safe trip would be very much appreciated.

All in all, it's just a happy kind of day.

Prayers/good wishes/positive vibes from the Capn.

Go, ChocoMama! And congrats to Choco and Kitsune!

fine Scottish weather we're havin' here. Nice, soft rain coming down at a slight slant so it doesn't sting you.

When I first read Pie's post, I thought that Choco's happy (which I hadn't gotten to yet) was going to say she was going to be the next to be adding to the Cellar family.

Though I am dissapointed that's not the source of her happy, the news about her mom is really great! Way to go! :driving:

*smiles* wonderful that your mum will be there choco:) Way to go, chocomama!

I gave blood today. It always makes me feel good about myself when I do that. So I'm happy about that.

This time, I also signed up for the bone marrow database. They took a couple cheek swabs, and will put me in a database. There's a one half of one percent chance that I may someday match somebody who needs bone marrow transplant. If so, I'll have a big decision to make, since the procedure is pretty invasive, but I'd be saving a life. We'll cross that bridge if I come to it.
