Happy:

Blue:
Poor sleep
Health wise I could be doing better
The thick layer of ice on our sidewalk
I'm alone for the afternoon
The never ending stuff to deal with it seems - paperwork that I only seem to get portions put away before the end up piled somewhere, there's always laundry to deal with
Happy:
I spent the morning with a friend and her two kids
As much as I like spending time with others' kids, I'm glad I don't have to be taking care of one 24/7
The weather is pretty good - above freezing
My large mug of tea
A health workshop tonight

5 things that make me either happy or blue....I'm very seldom blue so happy it is!
1. woke this morning so I'm still alive....thank God!
2. The days of the week don't need a name for me to be happy.
3. Son and family are doing well.
4. Will be seeing my BBF's this weekend! They are in Oakville/Burlington area. Party time!!!
5. Belly dancing class resumes tonight!
6. I know you said 5....but my days are complete when I've made someone else happy or at least made them smile.

Aw Crazyheart, that`s a bummer.
The corruption of my computers in hacking and wheezing ... just blows my natural processing potential ... is that bleu?
... sort of like tumbling weed ... plants that numb the mind into narcolepsy? Don't smoke it ... but it can be baked into things! Sort of like buried humis ... the Scotts call it haggii ... thus avoid the kitchen you you could end up in a tumble with di-Anna an old expression for dual cares: thought and emotions in balance? Would someone put their thumb on the balance? 
Thus that thought was tripped up by UR ... a word derived from the Greek (Previously a doubled Aramaic icon) "mu" and a gamma .. some instigation of a dark energy that would deprive desires! In some traditions the gamma was mistaken as a Hebrew "d" in dyslexic form ... the advantage of looking at things from the other side (of de dark mire)? That'd be Ba salt ... or the pickle psyche is in!

I think there is a difference between being joyful and being happy.
If I were crazyheart, I certainly woudn't be "happy" either that my scalloped potatoes boiled over in my oven and I had to clean them up . . . but I could find a way to maintain my joy in the situation.

I guess I should have commented. I didn't like the fact that your potatoes boiled over. Your comment about deleting everything cracked me up though

I have a mixture of blue and happy in my life
blue at naramata Centre shutting
blue at middle daughter shutting off family contact
blue at my asthma and the limits it places on my activities
blue at the loss of my oldest cat
and happy
always at the weather here-such a treat after Edmonton
upcoming trip with my 81 year old mother
oldest soon settled in a career path
time to sew and quilt
a job that I do enjoy
and a house-more than meets my needs

Blue:
- federal politics; trying to decide what to do in my own riding
- too many friends fighting losing battles with cancer
- work situation awkward; they're restructuring again and I have to report to TOO MANY PEOPLE
- dog with broken leg, which is at least partially responsible for:
- messy house
Happy
- both kids currently housed and happy (-ish, or at least not in "whining to Mom" mode)
- dog's leg getting better (I hope; more expensive x-rays will confirm that this week)
- my term as Board Chair is over
- my employment provides me with a steady income to pay for stuff like broken dog legs
- my Tuesday night progressive christianity group continues a source of inspiration and support and love to me.

Blue:
Staff member who wants to walk on their own , went on too long a journey, and caused issues. Hoping he learnt from it, and will seek guidance going forward.
Loss of hours of multiple folks from our team fixing the issue
Having to undo work done, as well
Happy
Dad is going to go out for lunch with CCAC group every other Thursday
Dad is going to get assistance (paid) through CCAC 3x / week
Dad is able to go out & about and get medical appointments done, which fill up his day, and give us something to talk about
Dad is still alive & kicking butt
Kids and hubby are healthy and funny.
Just had tea delivered to me after a long day (by oldest son)
I have good friends, I have a warm house, and I am good at my job.
I can retire in 10 months (and a bit)
