My favorite photo is "Love Is All You Need." This is such a powerful quote to me. I really feel like it's true.
Things that have made me smile today are a sarcastic joke a co-worker made at a boring meeting, and seeing an email from my boyfriend in my inbox. Oh, and also my year and a half old dachshund.
Thanks :)

My teeny tiny friend Jenny made me smile today. She fractured her spine last week and went for her first walk yesterday. It didn't last long, but she was told she wouldn't even be able to STAND for a good few weeks, so it was amazing.
I'd like to the love one please, for her, because I love her.
