Happiness?

I stumbled across a link to a website called the happiness project. So now it is a project to get happy? It reminds me of the old Partridge Family song "come on get happy". How I loved David Cassidy, well, anyway I'm showing my age and my daughters would say that is creepy. Back to happiness - I want to be happy, most days I am happy, I know I deserve happiness but I thnk it is tough in these times to be truly happy. Struggles, conflicts, worries. Apparently this woman tries to have a better outlook on things. I might give it a shot. I think I started last night when Tor got home from school and told me she accidentially threw away her monthly railroad pass valued at $235. I didn't freak out, no, not one tiny bit. I was a little surprised at myself. I even looked for the receipt, which prompted me to start to declutter my "desk". That made me happy. I went for a bike ride this morning, that made me happy. I've been able to stick to my diet or healthy eating plan but that doesn't make me all that happy. I miss the wine, I miss the chips, I miss the leftover Easter candy so no I can't lie I'm not really that happy. Although my son this morning tried to convince me of how lucky I was that I didn't have get up and go to school. I am happy to be able to sleep in. Actually the happiest moment may very well have been seeing his little shaved head right up in my face kissing me good bye.
