Hey look! The sun's out and there are clear blue skies all over Cheesetown. Up in the woods there are definitely buds on some trees, and snowdrops are starting to poke through.
Ned has forgiven me for last night's shampoo and trim, and is elegantly wafting the scent of Tesco's Vanilla and Peach No Tears Shampoo and Conditioner through the house.
And on the back road between Cheesetown and the nearest M&S Emporium, I am singing along with my pal Lucinda Williams. It's warm enough to get the roof of the Mazda down.
That's how good it is.
I've got a job!
A better job than the one I had before!
And before I need to change the music to Steven Patrick (I was looking for a job and then I found a job/ And heaven knows I'm miserable now) Morrissey, before I need to worry about dog care and child care in the holidays, before the reality of walking the Nedster at half six every weekday morning kicks in, I'm going to enjoy it.
Look it worked out. Lost a stinking job to be there for W though his last months, had the time to look out for Cherub. Got job.
Simples.

Yay, congratulations, Macy! I'm happy for you. (Though the change in your blog template shocked me at first -- all that light! :)
On a practical note: how did you get Ned to dry so fast? The only thing that my Aggie wafts after a bath (which of course he hates) is a wet dog smell and chunks of hair -- for at least two days. We've considered a hair dryer, but he did not take to it (to put it mildly).

(and I've only just noticed the change in template) Enjoy the happiness, good to see you like this.

Congratulations my dear. Well done you!
Yay!

Sunshine and new beginnings, you have it all worked out miss M. Thanks for getting the Smiths stuck in my head all day though. Really, thanks.
Snowdrops make me all misty eyed and nostalgic. Every year my mum says "oh spring is coming as the snowdrops are out!"
Right now in Winnipeg (11:40 am) it is minus 25. You're welcome.

Ah, life is good
And I'm sure that Ned will be very forgiving if you miss an early morning every now and then.
May the sun shine forever.
Oh, now you need to teach cherub to cook

You are still happy, aren't you? Hope so.
