I'm grateful that, when I looked through the obits in today's papers, I wasn't there.

Got married two weeks ago and just got back from 10 nights in Antigua for the honeymoon. We also have a house, decent cars, in good health and are not being carpet bombed by Western and Russian aircraft under the guise of "anti terrorism".
Yep, every silver lining's got a cloud rolleyes

This is the Be Happy thread. Can you take the thinly veiled pop at what's going on in Syria somewhere else please?
Congratulations on the wedding.

I dropped the bog roll whilst sitting on the loo yesterday. Instead of it rolling away out of reach leaving a long trail of paper as it went it just bounced and came to rest by my foot.

For this is am grateful!

Im happy with the fact that even if its slow going, im slowly climbing out of the hole i dug myself into over the past 8 years with the ex. Single life agrees with me, even if i only see the kids 1-2 days a week.

After years of seriously struggling with money following ex husband cheating on me and dumping me with a 3 week old baby, my current partner said:

"We may never be rich, but you will never be scared of the gas bill again".

He is awesome. We are very happy.

Why is your ex husband called Gas Bill?

Let me guess...farts a lot?

I won £10.20 on the lottery the other night and flushed with this unexpected windfall I've given myself today off.

Great thread OP - Reading through has made me smile.

- My wife of 2 years and business partner who I grow more fond of every day.
- Our dog, he never fails to put a smile on my face.
- My family are all currently healthy, something i'm keen not to take for granted but do all too often.
- Our house, we built it and whilst we're selling and moving on to a new project the experience has been awesome and the house is a great place to live.
- Business is going pretty well currently, I have no commute at all and subsequently have the free time that others do not to exercise and take care of myself.
- My 98' 996 C2 - It's got 170k on it, and it's the black sheep of the 911 family, but I love driving it and love owning it.
- Going on holiday 4 weeks tomorrow with my wife, can't wait.
- Going to Utah snowboarding with my mates in January, again can't wait.
- This weekend I will no doubt enjoy some great food and delicious ale.

There's loads more when I think about it, which I often don't as work mostly turns me into an extremely grumpy human being - So thanks again OP for the positivity!

A very thought-provoking thread.

I'm happily single, with two healthy teenage offspring who are making their own way in the world. I have a comfortable home in an interesting location, two-thirds of my income will appear in my bank account each month even if I can't be bothered to get out of bed, the rest comes as a result of my deciding to work two days each week.

I have a couple of cars which I enjoy driving, and live in an area which has some beautiful countryside. Although life throws the occasional curveball, I like being me!
