Think happy thoughts

It's a dismal, dreary day today, and I'm still feeling kinda sick/tired/cranky/pissed off, so I'm looking for happy thoughts.

What's the BEST THING that's happened to you today? (Or this week, or this month, or whenever!)

Heh. That sounds like my dad's mom. She lived in the house at the motel since the 50s. Tons of dishes, books, clothes, and God-knows-what in the attic. She was one of those people who Never Changes Anything, which unfortunately my dad has inherited. The furniture from the 70s is still there, which he thinks is still perfectly good. The real problem is that there's a ton of stuff that my dad wants to keep (books), but has no room at his own house for. This is going to be a problem whenever they get around to selling the motel (which they will at some point, because my dad doesn't "want to be doing this when I'm 65"). But he's not going to clean anything out before then, so I'm sure it's going to be some horrible rush job where things get lost. Or he'll suddenly decide that none of it is worth saving after years of refusing to toss anything. I also have issues, LOL.
