It's Happiness Monday! I love My Happiness Project, where I decided to spend a year "finding" happiness with the help of Gretchen Rubin and her awesome book. Check out her website for more information. And buy the book! It's never too late to start your own Happiness Project.
Pollyanna Week Part Deux is concluded. And was mostly successful the second time around. Wearing those silly, silly, silly bands seems to have done the trick. Looking at them on my wrist really did help remind me to Carpe Diem with Joi de Vivre OR Seize the Day with the Joy of Life for those of you who don't want to decode latin and french today.
Plus, the routine is getting more established - and in a house where routine is about as important as sleep, that helps considerably.
You know what was the best part of the week? When I told Oldest why I wanted to wear them, she said, "that is the BEST idea EVER, Mommy! Let's all do Pollyanna week!"
So sometimes My Happiness Project brings unintended, positive results. I like that very, very much. Though I've had to tailor my original plan for the Project to accommodate my newly acquired volunteering roles, responsibilities and opportunities, here I am coming to the halfway point and can say it's definitely, absolutely, positively worth it.
What are you learning on your happiness quest? Anything helpful? I hope so . . .
