So - I'm checking and can report that today, my internal feelings of happiness reached new heights and I felt as excited and happy as if I were going on a date (which I was not). confused

I think this must be some kind of chemical reaction in my body because there is nothing going on in my life to elicit such feelings. Maybe the Ghirardelli dark raspberry chocolate and coffee I had for lunch? Dark chocolate does contain serotonin and makes us produce endorphins. If that's what it is, I'm stocking up - and can recommend it!

I went to an artist's meetup gettogether and met several nice people, and ended up renting studio space! It was ridiculously cheap and no limitations to access, and they display and sell my art if I want to. So now I will actually have to set aside time for art and not get distracted by dishes and work and such nonsense. wink
