Whatever would I do without whining?

Happiness. I has it.

Yeah, I know… I was channeling the Icanhascheezburger cat.

There are things in this life that make me happy.

My gorgeous daughters. My wonderful husband of 18+ years. (Some) family, and of course, my fabulous friends. Certainly all of those things and more make me happy.

But singing… singing fulfills me in ways unlike anything else. I feel this extreme level of happiness, sheer excitement, and such an amazing euphoria, all rolled together.

Bliss, that’s what it is.

It’s been a long time since I’ve been as happy as I am right this minute. We have all been singing together for a few years now as part of a larger group, but our new quartet is something else entirely. We are coming together so well I just can’t get over it. Every week is better than the last… tonight we were a cappella because dude-with-mad-keyboard-skills wasn’t able to make rehearsal, and we were shocked just how far we’d come in such a short amount of time.

Now someone had better medicate me, because I’m so excited I’m never going to sleep tonight!

Silly Haiku Wednesday

Silly Haiku Wednesday

Welcome to “Silly Haiku Wednesday!”

Click here for info and background on this weekly event!

The basics:

Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)

This week’s theme is: Friends

My silly submission for this week:

Some friends keep me sane
Some push me to strive harder
Some drive me to drink!

 

Next week’s theme: Separation (your choice of context)

Note: Nothing makes me happier than to see new people getting “hooked on haiku”! Keep it going to make it to the “Hooked on Haiku List
