    A gratitude list is a great way to help keep yourself from falling into the doldrums of life and seeing only the darkness.  It helps to remind us that there are sparkles and even explosions of happiness all throughout our world.  Have you tried at least taking note of the happy things as they occur?  Give making weekly gratitude lists a try.  What do you have to lose?

    Here are the wonderful sparkles that made my week a happy one:



  • Watching the live action Sailor Moon
  • Riding my bicycle
  • Dancing
  • Talking with my best friend in Google video calls
  • Looking at beautiful coordinates on Daily Lolita
  • Working and writing to 8tracks:
  • Being reminded of the lolita band Die Milch with this post on EGL. (PV) Die Milch - Rosaria
  • Abba - Dancing Queen I used to listen to ABBA rather often growing up.  
  • Talking about nail polishes.  I really love having my nails painted.  
  • Learning new things to do on the violin. Staccato!
  • Dreaming about the things I would like to bake.  Almond Butter Cookies are delicious. 
  • Taking some bath time 
  • Buying gifts for others 
  • Going to the Asian Market
  • Sitting by myself at a coffee shop  
  • Just generally spending time with friends 
  • Playing with balloons for the fun of it
  • Packages in the mail  

    Have a wonderful week.  Spring is just around the corner.

  1. I love nail polish, and probably have way too many for someone who can rarely paint her nails for work-related reasons. Lol.

    Almond butter cookies sound delicious!

    I haven't been to the Asian Market in forever!

    Also, balloons and packages in the mail are both such happy, fun things!

    1. I too have more nail polish than I likely should. Let us hope for better days when our nails can always flutter around in colorful style. lol

      Oh they are one of those baking experiments I did that turned out so well, so well. The next experiment I hope to perfect is hazelnut butter cookies. Need to set some time aside for that one.

      Oh you should go. It is so worth it. I am so happy to have my favorite salad dressing in the pantry again. Ginger dressing. mmm

      It is always good to appreciate the little fun things in life, even if you look silly doing it. (I like to bat at balloons like a cat. They make such a nice sound when you do that and they always bounce back. :D Silliness is also so much fun.)
