Five Things

The magazine Real Simple this month talked about what makes a person happy. My DH read something to me yesterday off the internet. I guess there was a recent survey somewhere that said if your household makes over 80,000, you are more happy than if you make less than that.

I do not know what to think about the above ideas, but I do know that as people age they seem to be less happy. Is that because after a certain age, people tend to not like change and therefore after awhile of doing the same thing, get complacent, and therefore unhappy?

Well, I do not know the answer to that either, but I do know that I try to think about the things that made me happy during the week.

Maybe more people need to do that.. reflect on what was great during the previous week. What made you smile, laugh, feel bliss ??

Five Things I am Happy About Right Now:

1. I substitute taught everyday last week. ( This is rare the first week after break!)

2. I spent the morning in my basement decluttering. I love a good organzing session when I end up with a bag of trash!

3. I did not have to cook the last three nights!

4. Some free time to read for the pure enjoyment of it!

5. The JETS won yesterday!

What are you happy about right now?
