Totally agree- this time of year is hard.
Great idea for a thread!

1) New baby beluga!!! I just worked 16 hours helping with the delivery of our new baby boy!

2) Get to go home in less than one week to see family. Some i haven''t seen in a year.

3) Tonight is "date night" and he is picking. we never really have date night so this should be fun.

3.5- my new LOGR setting is coming today!

OMG SO CUTE!!!!!!!
 
The baby beluga is crazy adorable! It seems there are a bunch of Chicagoans floating around!

My three things:

1) My kitty cats were super happy to see me when I got home.
2) I''m getting a netbook for Christmas - it fits in my purse!
3) Friday I get to go home and see my mom and wear pajamas for two weeks straight if I want!

My BF just got me one as a Christmas present and I love it waaay more than I thought I would!

1) BF won a giftcard to Bahama Breeze (yummy restaurant) at his work''s gift exchange!!
2) I leave work in 20 minutes and I can''t wait to see my doggies furry faces (BF is at work until late though

)
3) The weather has been nice and cool these past couple of days (Florida

)
 
Today''s things:

1) I had two lunches! One involved fancy organic sandwiches, the other pulled pork at a place called Fat Willy''s Pig Shack.
2) I got mani/pedis with two friends, and convinced the male one to paint his pinky toe hot pink.
3) I have Gossip Girl and Ugly Betty on my DVR to watch curled up under a blanket.
 
1. I wrapped all my Christmas gifts with my kitty by my side

2. Spending time with my guy, hugging, and laughing together

3. Seeing the new Disney movie with my guy...we both loved it!
 
1) Arriving home after a 14 hour drive without (1) a speeding ticket, (2) running out of gas, or (3) hydroplaning and landing in a ditch. Sadly I have previously done all those things.
2) Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell on audio book
3) Barbecued shrimp and the Cowboys tonight!
 
1. It''s our first Christmas together
2. My children are healthy, despite my little one''s holes in the heart and almost losing my second child when she was two.
3. My fiance and I will be in court on Christmas Eve morning...His daughter and her mother have been MIA since she was six months old, and we found them! He''ll be going for joint custody and visitation rights that morning. He saw the judge on Thursday, and the judge granted his request of "Order to show cause with temporary restraints." We proved to the judge the parental kidnapping of his daughter, and requested the judge issue a restraining order barring the mother from removing the now 12-year-old from the state again until the custody hearing has occurred. My fiance had all but given up hope until something told me to do a reverse look-up of the grandparents'' address. It showed the mother had recently lived there or was currently living there, so we went to court, got the orders, and Fi saw the judge. We got a court date within a week of seeing the judge. This may wind up being the best Christmas Fi has had in 12 years.
 
Can I play? Here are my three things:
1. Going away for Christmas and meeting a part of my SO''s extended family I haven''t met yet (also excited to go to Michigan for the first time)
2. Hopefully seeing my parents, who are coming to visit us tomorrow night and eating at a tasty restaurant in Old City!
3. Two word: Christmas lights!!
 
Welcome Adelyn!

1) The Dallas Cowboys...who dey, indeed.
2) Lemon tarts from La Madeleine
3) Destroying the boys in fantasy football
 
1. Taking a nice, hot bubble bath

2. Looking foward to going to bfs aunts house on christmas

3. I just ate a yummy piece of chocolate (yah, I know it sounds lame, but hey...it''s something)
 
1.When my husband kisses my back in the morning
2.Talking with my mom on the phone about "nothing and everything"
3.When I have the opportunity donate to those less fortunate.

I wish you all a happy holiday!

1) Even though my basketball team lost tonight, we were sitting by some family members of one of the opposing team''s players and they were so happy that it made the loss not quite so bad.

2) My mom made Jewish Pot Roast which always reminds me of my grandma (I''m so happy my mom learned the recipe from her MIL).

3) The weather has been super nice and warm the past few days.
 
1. I finally found a wallet to give my BF for Christmas (he''s picky; he likes the ID holder to be on one of the outside flaps, not the middle of a trifold wallet)
2. We have our office Christmas party today at one of the attorney''s house and there''s bound to be delicious food

3. 4-day weekend!
 
OMG, Melissa, that''s amazing! Fingers crossed for your FI!

My 3 things for today:

1) Being home after a wonderful long weekend with my family back in Ohio to see my sister graduate with her Masters (and celebrate Christmas early!).
2) Getting Mario Kart Wii for Christmas and seeing Baby Peach dance when she wins! (It makes me giggle!!!)
3) Emails from my old boss who retired earlier this year wishing me a Merry Christmas!
 
Love this thread!

1) Finally getting FI to agree that just because he lives in a condo (and not a hosue) there is no reason not to decorate for Christmas! We bought a 32 inch fake tree and decorated it. It''s not much but it''s enought for me.

2) Christmas treats: chocolate chip and chocolate crinkle cookies, fudge and pink and green marshmallows.
3) Christmas movies
 
1) I found a ton of books at Half-Price Books today for very little money. Yeah for chick lit to read over the holiday break!

2) I''m a huge sucker for feel good sports movies and feel good historical epics, and today Invictus filled both those categories. Sob!

3) My new peridot baby lotus arrived from Sally at Heart of Water! The stone came from a pair of earrings that my dad gave me for my 19th birthday, and I lost him less than two years later. After wearing the earrings almost constantly for many many years, I lost one, most likely down the drain. Now I have a beautiful reminder of my dad that I can keep with me without looking like a doofus in one peridot earring. I have a thread over on Colored Stones, but forgive me if I share it on LIW, too!

I''m feeling a bit blue, and I''m cold, so I needed to bring this back!

1) I found an eye shade that is both cute and blocks out ALL light. Better sleep!

2) Today I ate some avocado and I really freaking love avocado.

3) I bought a nice bottle of Riesling to drink tonight with my mom (I''m away from my boy, so will be making do).
 
1. Playing with my puppy and cuddling with my kitties. They all make me feel good even when I''m having the worst day.

2. I''m ruling out "bad" food for 2010, so I had a delicious feast of junk food for lunch today. Great last meal!

3. The promise of 2010 turning out much better than 2009. It''s been a rough year and it can only be uphill from here!
 
Yay a new year! Felt inspired to post my 3 happy things this year:

1) Finished my CV and cover letter and sent to dream company (kick start to proactively searching for a more fulfilling job)
2) Joined a running club today
3) Excited to start dancing again! taking workshops that start this Sat. for 8 weeks!
 
Yeah MonkeyPants!

1) I just read a super old Brides magazine in the bathtub (what?!? - I bought it at Half-Price Books) and got into my super soft robe the boy gave me for Christmas!

2) I DESTROYED in both my fantasy football leagues, beating both the boys and the girls!

3) Macaroni & cheese (sans lobster) and honey mustard glazed ham - these were actually my New Year''s Day meal, but I haven''t had a chance to talk about how AWESOME these recipes are. Super Bowl Party perfect!
 
I''m going to play because I''m a little down today.

1) When SO spoons me while we watch several episodes of the Office (U.S. version).

2) Being at SO''s dad''s house for New Year''s and getting to meet his 3 week old niece. She is so adorable!

3) When SO''s brother referred to me as SO''s future wife! It really just made me smile when he said it and even thinking about being SO''s future wife, and eventually his wife, puts this huge, dorky grin on my face!
 
I love this topic!!

1. My new madbomber hat. Seriously - i would freeze without it.
2. Text messages from the BF, he started classes again (LAST SEMESTER OF HIS MS!) and i love the little notes throughout the day.
3. My family, i know - cliche. But I only get to spend a week or two a year with them now and i miss them all. even the pipsqueak (haha he''s 18 now) brother. :)


<3 Happy new years LIW! Best of luck in it!
 
Brief writing sucks. Need to be happy!

1) Roasted veggies - YUM! Added some heat with red pepper flakes.

2) My new angora socks from Target. Super soft and super warm, which is good because I'm super cold!

3) I discovered the new iPod nano plays sound when there are no headphones/speaker attached. That makes me crazy happy since it means I won't have to haul around my little speaker with me whenever I travel! I also managed to put all of the first season of 30 Rock on there.
 
Oooooo!

1) Delicious decaf coffee made by my SO.
18.gif


2) Yummy smelling candles burning in my living room!

3) Drooling over Clooney, Pitt, and Damon on TV.

I hear ya SB! I need to be happy too!

1) got a whole lot of exercise today! About 4 hours worth
32.gif
but it felt good and I didn''t feel like dying at all.
2) deep fried breaded scallops....drool. I was so hungry after #1 that I ate whatever was in front of me. Not the smartest move, but I don''t regret it one bit. They were delicious.
3) reading the preggo, TTC, and just barely preggo threads makes me happy. I''ve got major baby fever these days

Wow! 4 hours? That takes dedication!
My 3 happy things today:

1. Spoke with my bf over video Skype.
30.gif

2. Did laundry (I''m such a laundry nerd - love doing it so much! Sometimes I even make excuses to wash things that don''t need to be washed)
3. Exercised a bit today after a couple (ok more) weeks of not exercising.
36.gif
 
ha Kitcha, I ran 5 miles and then had 2 dance workshops right after. It was ballet and modern so pretty low impact. Trust me, I''m not that dedicated
2.gif
. It''s the first time I''ve exercised in months

Oh and I absolutely despise laundry. Feel free to drop by my place any time
9.gif
. Fi does my laundry because he hates how it piles up. poor guy...
 
I''m grasping at straws today, but here goes:

1) I successfully made an omelette! This has never happened before.

2) Torani sugar-free vanilla syrup - it really livens up my tea!

3) We watched Human Target last night and it was pretty fun (with good eye candy!). Finding TV shows that appeal to both me and bf is difficult, so I''m always happy when it happens.
 
1) DIY manicure and pedicure. Very relaxing and makes me feel all nice and clean and pretty
1.gif
and it''s cheap!

2) Spending one on one time with my good friends- they''re such great people and it dosn''t happen often so I cherish it.

3) Doing somthing nice for someone else.
