Happiness Challenge

 


Today I am happy for the chart portal to my doctor, who quickly responded to a question.

Happiness Challenge

 


Today I am happy for raspberry sorbet. And Hershey's raspberry ice cream, which my husband loves, and for small privately owned ice cream shops, because hurrah for small businesses!

Today I am happy that I have air purifiers that help me breathe better while my husband mows. 

Air is a good thing!

Happiness Challenge

 


I didn't hit every day of the August Happiness challenge, so I thought I'd continue into September with my hit-or-miss postings.

Today I am happy that it stopped raining so we could get hay in, even if it does create a lot of dust and set off my allergies. The cows need to eat this winter!

August Happiness Challenge Day #29

 


Today I am happy that my husband noticed that his dump truck was getting a flat tire before anything bad happened. That could have been serious.

I am also happy that I am listening to Fleetwood Mac.

August Happiness Challenge Day #27

 


Today I am happy for low temperatures and partly cloudy skies. I'm also happy for neighbors who help put calves back in the pasture when the little rascals decide to go wandering.

This has been a difficult day, but I am happy that I can find solace in music.

August Happiness Challenge Day #23

 


Today I am happy that I have more important things to fret over than the change of logo of Cracker Barrel. Honestly, who cares? If that is the kind of thing that worries people, I am really glad I am not one of them.

August Happiness Challenge Day #21

 


I found a new (old) show to watch while I'm walking on the treadmill. This made me very happy because I need to keep my brain and eyes engaged when I'm exercising.

August Happiness Challenge Day 18

 


We are having a break in the humidity today with a nice breeze. It's lovely out this morning! That makes me happy.

I was able to assist with family duties and take a relative to the doctor this morning. That made me happy, too, that I could help out. I even picked up parts for my husband for something broken while I was out.

I am also happy I'm writing this, because I've been remiss about it for a few days!

August Happiness Challenge Day #12

 


Today I am happy for the young woman who comes and cleans for me once a month. She makes the house feel good, and me feel better about the things I'm not able to do anymore. Hurrah!

August Happiness Challenge Day 11

 


Today I am happy for grocery store roasted chicken. We eat a lot of them. I cannot buy an uncooked chicken and cook it for what I can purchase a pre-roasted chicken for, hot out of the rotisserie. I do not know why this is, but I am not much on cooking anyway, so I am very glad that this option exists.

It makes for a quick and easy dinner.

August Happiness Challenge Day #8

 


Today I got myself up and went through the pantry and tossed out the cans that were past their "use buy" date.

Most of them were things we'd never eat anyway. Pandemic purchases, I suspect. Things I bought when the shelves were looking sparse. Anyway, they went on to the landfill. I was glad to get the space back so I can use it for things that we might actually eat.

Today I am happy that saw a fawn in the front yard and not in my garden. (Sorry, I didn't get a picture.)

August Happiness Challenge Day #3



I asked my husband to fix me a piece of piece of toast this morning. I wanted it oven-style in the toaster oven. We have a toaster oven that I don't like, plus I am ill, and he offered to make breakfast. I only wanted a piece of toast.

We keep our bread in the freezer to keep it from going bad before we use it, so he buttered a slice of frozen bread . . . and put it in the pop-up toaster. I glanced over and saw the toaster oven was empty and realized what he'd done.
 
"What are you doing, are you trying to burn the house down and kill us?" I cried, as well as someone with laryngitis could cry. He realized what he'd done, popped the bread out, and then had to spend 1/2 hour cleaning the toaster out as it was greasy with melted butter, not to mention a build-up of crumbs that he grumbled about.

I made my own toast in the toaster oven.

Today I am happy that the house did not catch on fire from the toast.

Today I am happy that my friends Chad and Sage agreed to work with me on a project. (Shhh. It's a secret, for now!)
