It's really hard to think of "what is your happiness today" when going through such immense emotional pain of a separation. I am not planning on blogging about this situation; it's very painful and personal. But, will I'm sure affect the tone of the blog.

Out of so much sadness, here is some positives I've come up with..

1. My estranged dh bought me a portable air conditioner today for the bedroom. I've never tolerated the heat well and sleeping has been miserable at best. It's going right now so hopefully I might get some sleep tonight. He does care about me and wants me to be comfortable.

2. The hydrangea bush finally bloomed. Exciting as I wasn't sure it would happen. The bush itself is big and green but because I forget to water and feed it, I didn't know if I'd get flowers.

3. Got a phone call from a dear mutual friend a few days ago and that really helped. I didn't feel so alone after that call.

4. The "chicks" came over last night and chatted, trying to take my mind off of things. They are good people.

5. I got the 2006-2007 Stampin Up Catalogue.

Happy belated Canada Day.
