i must confess...
I really wanted to do this #100daysofhappy thing but I'm not several days behind. It wasn't because I was unhappy, or couldn't find inspiration anywhere - it was because I was spending my time being happy! So I'm just skipping those days... knowing that I was just where I should have been, doing just what I was supposed to do.

Sometimes, I find myself wondering what wonderful rhythmic clacks reporters orchestrated as deadlines neared in newsrooms back when typewriters were the standard.
I love, love, love typewriters. They make me happy.
I'm so excited for the Vera Bradley Outlet Sale. Not so much for the bags and blankets and cutest of all cute VB things, but more for the fact that I get to spend the day with two great friends. It's a tradition now and I couldn't be more excited to have some girl time tomorrow.
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

This was my #100daysofhappy yesterday, but I forgot to post it. My favorite quote.
I can't say a lot about this without going into years and years of back story, but we had dinner with a group of friends last night that we haven't seen in eight years (mostly).
We hosted a Sunday Dinner Reunion and it brought back so many memories of years past. I remember why I surrounded myself with these people to begin with. It was so good to laugh with them again.
And the kids! There were new tiny humans, and those who had once been tiny humans weren't anymore. Here's just a few of them. What a long way we've come from just one or two teetering toddlers.
Thanks for that.
When we moved into our house last August, we decided that it was the one. That meant that what we did here would stick forever, er, at least a long time, and we decided to pick things that we loved, but try to be budget-conscious about everything.
So we've started these projects. And my #100daysofhappy thing on Saturday (which I forgot to post...) was this beauty. It's finished, lounging in the sun on the back deck, just waiting for someone to sit food and beer on it, absorb the laughter of friends and hold all our crap.
Thanks to my hubs for painting and distressing so wonderfully. I heart you.
Today, my #100daysofhappy is simple.
My inbox is e.m.p.t.y. And, that makes me happy.
Around this time last year, on one of the hardest days of my life, we put said goodbye to one of our family - Sophie. She was beautiful and kind and even though she struggled throughout the last few years, we loved her.
I didn't want another dog for a while, for a long while actually. Despite the girls' begging and pleading, I said I didn't want to clean up after one, I didn't want to have to walk one and come home at a certain time for one and dammit, I just didn't want one.
So we got hamsters instead, which is a mistake of epic proportions saved for another story. But, I suppose they were worth it because one day when we went to buy hamster food, we found this precious girl. It was an accident. I didn't want a puppy, I didn't want a dog, I didn't want to replace Sophie.
But we brought her home anyway. She is tiny and snuggly. She thinks she is ferocious and protective. She squeaks when she is tired and when you're rubbing her ears. She loves her blanket and the girls, especially Brooklyn because she has all kinds of good things to chew under her bed.
So today, and every day really, she makes me happy for not judging, for always loving me and for snuggling up next to me when I've had a bad day.
Yes, the McDonald's Diet Coke makes me happy, but what really did it for me today was what used to reside in that tiny paper wrapper. Vanilla, in case you're wondering.

A Colombian press association sent 52 tons of newsprint to three Venezuelan dailies that are struggling to go to print because of paper shortages.
Since August of last year, at least 10 Venezuelan dailies have gone out of print, while at least 11 have had to reduce their size, according to human rights organization Espacio Publico. Venezuelan newspapers are having a hard time importing newsprint, which isn’t produced locally, because of government-imposed restrictions on obtaining U.S. dollars

From time to time, you'll see journalism things posted here because it's a big part of who I am. I wanted to share this because newspapers in the United States are currently struggling, and have been for some time, with whispers of "death" during the changing industry.
But here's a country where newspapers are fighting so incredibly hard to continue to do work on behalf of journalism and the truth. I think what the press association did was commendable and remarkable and we should all take a good, hard look at how hard we're fighting.

I love, love, love black and white photos. This one is beautiful, even if there is snow, which makes me unhappy.
So I must confess -- I took this #100daysofhappy photo yesterday after I left work. The sun was shining, my windows were down and I had this cranked up.
I always know it's summer when I break out the Dave in daily doses. It reminds me of summers ten years ago, sitting on porches with cold beer and good friends, of sundresses and sunglasses and happiness. I'm always amazed at how quickly my mood changes.
So today (well, yesterday and today, I guess), I'm happy about Dave, about sunshine and about the fact that the #Snowpocalypse is finally over.

I think this is one of those places I absolutely need to go. Too bad it's a road, I just need a small pathway where I can ramble on slowly.
i'm back, i guess
I've had a tumblr off and on for years. I work on it for a bit, I delete it. I have a great idea, spend hour whatever I think it is that I want it to be and then forget about it or only think about it when I'm washing my hair.
Truth is, I don't really do much for me, or that I want to do, anymore at all. At the beginning of this year, I decided I would try harder. The list of things I need to do that grows longer every single day - eat better, exercise, read more, take time to breathe, say no more... on and on and on - but writing has to fall in to that category, too.
And then this happened...
I'll take it as a sign. Can I post something meaningful to me for 100 days in a row? I mean, do things make me happy every day? For 100 days?
I'm going to say yes, and I'm going to do it and it's going to make me happy, dammit. Then, it will make me realize that doing all these things for myself is important, right? Hey, it's a daily struggle, don't judge.
