The Happiness Project!

I think we can all agree that 2009 was pretty stinky. In the past few months, I found myself falling into a real rut, sort of walking around with a big black cloud swirling around me, filled with doom and gloom and finding very little joy in life. As I was driving to work today, I was thinking about that, and about advice I have given my kids very often and others as well. Happiness is a choice, a decision we make every day, and being happy takes a real proactive approach. I was telling another person a few days ago that the door to happiness opens out - not an original, but something I read on a day by day calendar thing once and it stuck. So I have decided to embark on a happiness project, a sort of journey to find joy in every day, and I hope you will take the ride with me. I welcome you to read my daily posts and comment on what effort you have made today and what joy you have found in the simplest of things. Maybe by our mutual support we can uplift our mood and make 2010 the year of being happy.

Day Thirteen, January 18th, 2010





What's better than getting an order on your etsy shop! Buying the yarn with a 50% off one regular price item at AC Moore! I printed out the coupon, cut it out and raced to AC Moore. There is was, my Boucle Bernat yarn, sole ingredient for my own creation, my dark baby cocoon, regular price $3.99, use of 50% off coupon, cha ching, $1.99!!! Plus it counted toward my AC Moore Awards! I love AC Moore, I love yarn, I love a bargain! Good day for happy!!!

I love A. C. Moore too! There's one very close to where I work, so I'm always ducking in there at lunch. Very dangerous, even with the coupons and discount card . . .
