Sapphire is on a distinguished road
Pollyanna

I got this idea after Ches linked a Random Happiness to a Random Complaint in the RC thread.

Post a problem/bad situation, and then finish it with a positive way of looking at it. If you cant think of anything positive, maybe other members can help.

Problem: Now I can't think of anything that is bothering me......
Pollyanna: Isn't it great that I have nothing to worry about at the moment.

(yes that was lame, but I hope the idea catches on)

heh, good thread idea.

Problem: I wish I was a good driver.
Pollyanna: Aren't I lucky I get such great exercise by walking everywhere?

LOL gracie - you never saw "Pollyanna"? It's a classic movie based around a young girl who can find something positive in everything.

I got it out of the library for my daughter to watch a couple of years ago, remembering the good theme and hoping that she would learn from it. I forgot in the end though that Pollyanna sustains a spinal injury and ends up a quadrigplegic......not one of my best parental decisions.... :)

OK this one is perfect:
Problem: My husband has been out of town for months
Pollyanna: At least I don't have extra laundry and cooking to do.

*illegal bump*

Problem: Bosses are giving mixed messages about what they want, being degrading, and one is putting on false airs and the other is simply mean.

Pollyanna: They crack me up. My boss wanted me to do a tally for something and this is what she said: "Can you do, like, a bar chart? You know those bar charts with a line going across on the fifth one."

Oh, my sides are aching... I would leave if you weren't so funny, my loves...

I created a second account when I changed my name - I didn't realise you could get it changed. It's against the forum rules to have more than one account. Anyhoo, it probably would look nicer if someone could unban Sapphire and just delete the account or whatever you do so it shows up as Guest (the way MsNerdinator does)
