I know this sounds corny, but every time I am feeling a little down or just have a case of the blahs, I do a quick recap of my day and make a list of all the things that have gone right in the day. Here’s what made me happy today:
1. Making the bus this morning
2. Knitting on the ride
3. Drinking coffee while looking over the day’s news
4. A good, long, hard run at lunch
5. Listening to the UW marching band practicing on campus as I ran by
6. Ending said good, long, hard run
7. Eating a Tootsie Roll (it was eleven years old, but tasted o.k., actually) Hmmm… maybe that one doesn’t belong on this list… I may strike that one in a few hours.
8. Nursing Ella
9. Three words: FaceBook at work. Or is that four? I never know.
10. Tabasco Chipotle on my stew
11. Going home in fifteen minutes
It’s often easy to see the things that are going wrong, but taking the time to deliberately recognize what is going right is a great exercise. Now it’s your turn. What made you happy today? Share! Share!
Finding my lost debit card, when I thought I'd have to cancel it & get a new one (it was in my purse the whole time). Have you seen this site?
