Happy things, part the third

[radegund]

I had a very sparse night's sleep last night, and when I woke up this morning I wasn't entirely sure how I'd get through the day. However, something prompted me not to take the path of least resistance and slump at home for the day: I made our shopping list, then brought the boys to a café for lunch before buying the week's groceries, and then we went into town to do some of Oisín's Christmas shopping.

And it was - entirely unexpectedly - great. He has a list he wrote himself, with people's names and little drawings of what he wants to get them, and his ideas are lovely. The weather was unspeakable, so we mostly stayed in the Stephen's Green shopping centre, with a brief foray out to South King Street. We got half the things on his list, and we'll go back next week in drier, brighter conditions to hunt down the rest.

Meanwhile, still on the theme of happy things, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to chiller and jinxremoving (today), and a belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY to mollydot (yesterday).
