#100HappyDays

So, I started the "100 Happy Days" Challenge on July 13th. Today would be day 43.
The objective of the challenge is to find one thing each day you're happy about, take a picture, and post it to a social media site. I missed Day 32 and Day 42. After I missed day 32 I figured I would continue my challenge because I wanted to. After missing yesterday I figure I could still continue my challenge today but, why?

When I started my challenge it was all about noticing one thing every day and being thankful or happy about it. I realized this morning that, even though I missed days, I have fully acknowledged something and been happy/thankful for it. Both of the days I missed I can remember thinking of something I was happy about, thinking "oh i need to take a picture of it later" and then ended up never taking the picture. I fully had something in mind but when it came to the picture I was so wrapped up in the moment that I didnt think "Man, I need to take a picture of this and post it to Instagram/Facebook/Twitter."

This challenge has taught me to appreciate the moments I'm in and be happy and thankful for them. I believe that was the most important thing about this challenge. Its one of the most important things I learned from it. You don't always have to be thankful and the "assigned" holiday. Be thankful for what you have every single day because you never know when its going to disappear.

Call for a Little Update?

I'm attempting to start updating, or even post, at least once a month. We'll see how that goes.

Well well well....where do I start?

I got a new job....again, I guess you could say.
I work at West Coast Ultrasound Institute as their weekend receptionist. Its looking well for me to move to full time, so keep your fingers crossed! The pay is better and the respect that everyone on campus gives you is even better. I felt like I didn't get that from management at my last job.

What else is new?

I can't think of much else. I know my last 2 posts have talked about some mystery guy. Actually I just went back and looked and I guess I vaguely addressed the fact that my previous relationship had ended. I know in my last post I talked about how I complained about my ex in my journal months before I broke up with him. Well in the time line of this blog I broke up with him after that valentines day post.

I don't want to talk too much about the guy (Josh) I'm dating now though. I post about my relationships and I just don't want to jinx anything with this one. Everything is going so well and I just want to keep it that way. :)
He's a keeper though. :)

I haven't really tried very many new recipes lately....I still live with my parents... My car (Perry) is slowly but surely giving up on me. Maybe not....little Perry is a trooper. After all he is 13 years old. Things are slowly going out and I'm slowly fixing them...and by "I", I mean my dad. lol I would learn if he showed me but most of the time the things that need fixing are a one man job. He gets them done faster and easier if my hands and nose aren't getting in the way. Right now Perry's air isn't working. For any of you reading this out there, if you know anything about cars, no it does not need charging. There's a leak somewhere so when we charged it last time it lasted about a day or two and then gave up on me. Thought about trading him in but then I would have a new car payment and I'm quite attached to Perry. (Parents always said not to name anything you bring home haha). On a last note, yes....my car is a boy's name. lol

I think that is all I have to say for today.

Catch ya later!
