What constitutes a 'good day' for you?

When there are no disasters.

Waking up again. I’m grateful just to still be alive

Talking to certain people, or waking up to a cloudy day.

If my son is in a good mood or not. If he’s whiny and bratty, then the day sucks for me…especially if he doesn’t nap. Nap time is mommy time. Mommy needs her sanity.

(cool. i just posted this on my bio) I consider it a good day when I manage to avoid paper cuts & static shocks. (i get them a lot. ‘hate it.)

if I’ve made a “to do” list for the day, and get all or most of it done, that’s a good day.

also a good visit with a friend really makes my whole day better. :)

If I get more than three hours of sleep, am not brought to tears by pain, and experience no irreversible disasters, it has been a good day.

Not getting accused of being a dog murderer.
<<bitter.

Getting the balance of work and family right and putting the kids to bed with smiles on their faces :-)

@peyton_farquhar Dog murderer?

@peyton_farquhar ;)

I think my best days are my most productive days. I always feel like it’s been a good day if I’ve gotten a lot done.

For example, today was a good day! I ran behavioral trials with my fish till lunch, whilst listening to jaunty tunes. Then I made a delicious cheddar and tomato sandwich. I went back to work and set up 20 new tanks for my second fish population (more jaunty tunes were involved!). For some reason I feel even more productive (and therefore it was a “better day”) if I did manual labor, so the most satisfying bit was filling the tanks using my trusty bucket.

#1 ingredient to a good day for me is plenty of sunshine. I don’t even have to be outside for this to lift my spirits considerably. After that, it’s ‘puttering’. Doing a little of this, a little of that, and being in no particular hurry about any of it. I get a lot accomplished like that, but don’t feel worn out by doing it.

@loser Dog murderer.

Today is a good day.

Why?

Because I said so.

When I remember to say it’s a good day, or use the future tense in that regard (even better – it will be a good day) – magically, it does become a good day. The power of suggestion works on me – even if it’s just coming from me. Good to be a schitzo. It helps in these cases.

@NewZen Well said. A day is good because we decide it’s good.

—Have a good day my friend @Capt_Bloth

@NewZen You too!
