Is anyone familiar with the book 14,000 things to be happy about by Barbara Ann Kipfer? I'd like to take a survey on what you would say makes you happy (besides fencing, though we all have our ups and downs with this). Don't feel that you must list everything; a few items will be sufficient.

Being able to curl up in the corner of a chair, or in bed, with a blanket and read for hours, knowing that you have nothing to worry about.
Making others happy.

What about the 6-month old German Shepherd! We want details on the puppy!

I don't call anything that stands taller than my waist (at the shoulders) a puppy! He's a big sucker, though not as thickly-furred (yet?) as most German Sheperds. All black, except the bit of white on one of his toes. Very friendly/affectionate, extremely hyper, pretty smart. A lot of fun. I miss him; we had him for about a month before I left, then he went and got huge and fun, and I've only seen him for a few days since!
