here's to happiness

The luxury of having ansolutely nothing to do is mine today. Lucky me.
I have been pottering about cleaning and tidying the flat, which is being viewed this afternoon.
anyway, 'This morning' was on the tv and the last feature was about Maxwell Caulfield and Juliette Mills. Two actors, who I dont really know, and it was their story that I was interested in ~ they married when he was 21 and she was 39 and have been together 30years. their relationship caused scandals in the 80s, but has been successful because they really do love spending time together.
another thing, which is faintly embarrasing to admit to, was that jeremy kyle was on the tv too this morning....(pause. yes. embarrasing.)...but, there's so many miserable people out there, it's terrible. i'll never understand why some people are intent on making others miserable. we only get one chance. why not spend it being happy? why don't people try to do at least one good thing a day?
Because of my friend's wedding which is coming up, I've been asked a couple of times about how I feel about marriage and tim...and etc. it's easy to imagine the questions that a wedding have prompted... the point is, that tim and i do get along incredibly well: we enjoy each others company. we tell each other that we love each other. he brings me flowers home. i cook for him. we make sure that we do things that prevent our relationship from becoming boring. people may think we're odd because we've been together for so long and that's weird in this day and age. (?)
but i believe that happiness is better than fitting the norm.
so, whilst there's no rush for wedding bells. I'm happy, we're happy and that's just lovely.
here's to happiness and remembering that doing things for other people really can help you find it.
