do what makes me happy

I have been busy on the weekends organizing my home and finances. Now I’ve got to do something fun for the upcoming long weekend.

i always do…
:)

It makes me happy to let go of worries, thoughts about what others might think of me, and keep thinking about things that are beautiful, lovely, and true. They make me happy!

i don’t even want to think about my state of mind when i first made this list. so many things have changed for the better about my life. i’ve accomplished a lot and look forward to accomplishing even more. i’m in control of my life and i love the direction it’s heading, for once. i have a lot of excitement ahead of me and life is good. i am ready for what it has in store for me :)

Do the simple things in life that make me happy. Wear red shoes, kick through great piles of autumn leaves, listening to rain on a tin roof, watching the flames in a open fire, .................

One my newest favorite quotes:

“Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.”
- Dr. Suess

It always makes me happy and energized, kind of like recharging an inner battery.

Spent five hours walking outdoors this past Saturday. The weather is great. It’s 80 degrees, sunny, beautiful, but not hot. I felt energized throughout the entire weekend, still feeling the cheerfulness this Monday morning!

went to the movies!!! yaaayyyyyy and saw the simpsons!!!!! great movie….

It’s good for lifting the mood, exercising the emotional side of the brain.
