Happy Friday

Some days are great days, just because. Today has been one of them. Nothing has been particularly spectacular, but the sun is shining on yet another lovely spring day and lots of little things have happened to make today and great one.

Here's what makes today a great day for me:

• Someone randomly coming into our office offering us baked treats - a chocolate box or a sugared doughnut. Chocolate for breakfast? Don't mind if I do!
• Having my new career (finally) confirmed in writing. Contract: signed, sealed, delivered.
• Our manager bringing us home made chocolate cake that was left over from a meeting. We polished it off in two sittings. (Mental note: I must get myself invited to meetings that have chocolate cake at them.)
• Coffee made by a superb barista. How we miss her when she is away.
• Cheese Scone Friday with a colleague. As we sat down to enjoy our coffee and scones, we also conveniently managed to solve the problems of the world. Isn't the world lucky?
• Lots of sunshine on a lovely spring day.
• Our team winning our social petanque match during pool play at lunch time.
• More chocolate cake for afternoon tea.
• Feeling like I am actually getting somewhere at work.
• It's Friday - and it has been all day. The only thing that can top that is Saturday and Sunday. Speaking of which ... it's time to go home and get the weekend started. :-)

Happy Friday, folks! How has it been for you?
