The Smiles

"A smile is such a funny thing, it wrinkles up your face... and when it's gone, you'll never find it's secret hiding place."

KH's Smile-Steps in a Day
1) A smile (of relief) from me when I finished my manuscript and passed it to the editors.
2) A(n) (exasperated) smile from the editor when she finished editing my manuscript (and having to deal with my arguments and debates)
3) A smile that says "She's here again!" from my designer when he sees me walking towards his desk.
4) A smile from my boss and she'd start to say "Good job! But....."
5) A(n) (apologetic) smile from me as I went back to the designer to tell him the changes

Repeat Steps (2), (3), (4) and (5) for at least 4 times in addition to other 'opposing forces' in action as and when they feel like it.

6) A BIG smile from boss, sup, editor, designer and me when all is okay and sent for print
7) The REAL smile (plus laughter) from me at something Baddest Bad or family members or close friends have done

At least the smiles are there amidst all the work, right?
