Happiness Is...

A new thing.

I don't mean happiness is a new thing to me; I'm starting a new thing {called Happiness Is...}.

I've been having a bit of a difficult week (as I mentioned yesterday). I don't like dwelling on the things that have made this week more challenging than others, so I try to think more positively. That's why I'm starting this new thing. Basically, I'm writing about the happiness I found in the day. 

Here we go!

Happiness is learning about something you're really interested in. I actually love my research paper topic.{It's very interesting and will be the topic of my blog on Monday.}

Happiness is talking to friends and family.

Happiness is cooking hundreds of cinnamon rolls. We've been preparing for a bake sale in Nutrition and Wellness to raise awareness for breast cancer. Everything is pink and sugar. 

Happiness is hearing the voice of someone you missed. Mitch Watts is the greatest ever. Millions of thanks to him for all that he's done. {he's a leader, a friend, a mentor, a supporter, and everything else!}

Happiness is finally having time to work out.

Happiness is watching kids run around at work. I work at The Kiddie Shoppe (owned by the always fabulous, Lindsey Morgan). No, we do not sell cats. It's a kids clothing store, so all day I get to watch the cutest kids play and talk to me while their parents shop. [Kids are the best.]

Happiness is being surprised. Trevor brought a milkshake to me at work today, and I just appreciate things like that.

Happiness is holding puppies.

Happiness is making other people happy. 
 
Life is wonderful {even when things are hard}. 

Come back tomorrow! I'm starting another new thing called Hello, Friday.
