Things that brought you joy this year

[Silvermoth]

Hi all,

I would love to know what brought you joy this year? I’ll go first…

- my partner found a job which helped us both out financially
- we went on a beautiful holiday to the beach
- there were so many television shows I really loved this year like sandman and rings of power.

and you?

There was a few...but the latest was when Japan beat Germany and Spain (2 titans in the world soccer history) in the World Cup group stage. Especially nothing can beat the joy and excitement the moment we scored the 2nd goal in that Spain match.

And the thrilling and epic World Cup final also brought joy to me personally.

Other thing, I think when me and partner can also saving better compared to last year's financially. Hehe

Me finding this thread so I can list things that brought me joy this year.

Seeing that the entertaining youtube RamboRalph4Life does do payed requests for movie reviews, and other entertainment topics since he has a Patreon, and a Paypal.
So someday in the future I'll send him a request to his Paypal for him to review the underrated great action movie (1991) Born to Ride which has John Stamos playing a badass Hero that rides a Motorcycle along with Army Soldiers in a rescue mission in an Indiana Jones style Action movie.

My youngest son ran his first half marathon with me in 2022.

My boys started being able to beat me at chess on occasion.

My wife and I took a a couple of days off from work throughout the year to “play hookey”. We would go out to lunch and watch movies on the couch while our boys were at school.

My oldest son and I got snowed in and had to rent a hotel room when he was downtown for a music camp and I was at work. We ended up hanging out watching Scream movies and The Office and had a great time just hanging together.

Getting film rights, to a definite project that’s going to sell, this week turned everything into a major win.

They’re rights that a major company used to have before falling under and thankfully went somewhat under the radar after which will make it at least somewhat fresh again.

My zoo memberships. I like getting in without having to pay each time. Makes me want to go more often.

i finally got to see the atlanta braves play in person. took almost 40 years, and it was in baltimore, my 2 favorite teams

Knowing that worst comes to worst in the political landscape, at least I’ll have a wedding and starting the process of becoming a father to distract me.

Which is going to look somewhat like this film. Just thankfully husband also wants baby and going to go full on adoption or surrogacy route.

That’s all to say, saying I’m going to be busy is going to be a huge understatement.
