HAPPY 101



Thank you very much to Sheilagh, Katie J and Anne from CrabTripper for the Happy 101 award. I don't do real well with following the rules here, so let's see how I do.

TEN things that make me happy. Here the are in no particular order.

1. my kids
2. my grandkids
3. my sisters
4. my mom and dad. Even though they are gone, not a day doesn't go by that I thank
A Loving Heavenly Father for the gift of my parents. They weren't perfect, but
I always knew they loved me, even at my most unlovable.
5. My church. I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints.
The gospel saved my life amd continues to give me purpose and direction everyday.
6. I love a good laugh. Usually something a juvenille as a fart will get me going
and then I can't stop. I LOVE to laugh like that.
7. I love rock concerts. Music makes me happy.
8. A good book. Oh I love me a good book!
9. a long drive in the car.
10. Last but certainly not least are my friendships. Both in my real life and
in my bloggy life. I consider my sisters and my daughter to be some of my BEST friends! oh, then there is my co worker.....love her too! See I am really blessed with lots of girlfriends.
Ok I can't pick just TEN blogger. Please EVERYONE that leaves me a comment, tell me just one thing that makes you happy.

Keep the mood and the food real........don't worry, be happy.

P.S. I forgot it's weigh in day. drum roll please......191.4lbs. That's down 1.6 pound. I will take it. By the way. I did good with keeping the scales in the trunk. Only weigh ONCE!

P.P.S. My daughter is going to try this blogging thing. Please check out her blog and show her some LOVE!

    Way to go on the weigh-in, I swear I thought you just got below 200 lol. Seems you're flying down that scale. I need to get rid of my scale too it's right in the livingroom by the front door where I can jump on it 10 times a day lol. Great list, I need a happy 101.

    I think what makes me happiest is laughing which can be brought about by the kids or Mike or friends or anyone.

    Nice loss!

    I love long drives too - especially just going in a direction without any certain destination. Haven't done that in a while.

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
