Why yes, it is nearly May and I am still finishing a meme from December 2015. I am delightful like that.
In 2015, the things that made me happiest was time spent with family and friends. I had multiple trips with friends, both here locally and across the US for various reunions, and I spent a great deal of time with my family, which is always nice.
Something that's made me happy in 2016 is returning to full time work. It's not a job I ever thought I'd have in my career, but it is interesting and a challenge, but it can also be left at work. When I leave for the day (and I generally leave before 530), I don't have to worry about it until I go back the next morning. That is not something I will ever take for granted again, not after my previous job. Also, it is amazing how much just having steady work has improved my mental state. Don't get me wrong, when I am back in full treatment again, it will be even better, but this helps. Having a schedule, the steadiness of work, earning my own money -- I started working when I was 15, and before that I baby-sat, and I had not been unemployed so long since then. It was a hard year for me. This is better.
I've also been writing a ton, and that makes me happy, too. Even the days when the writing doesn't go well are better than before.
