do 100 things to make people happy

EVERYONE OFF

this is a good idea.. i was thinking about making the goal to be a better friend, make more friends, become more connected, get involved, but this will do all of that.

need to do some stuff to make myself happy first…i’ll work on this again later.

made a guest book for my friend’s wedding. turned out pretty good I think.

I found some old stock in an account I had forgotten about, so I sold it and gave the money to my girlfriend to put towards her new camera. I also gave her my airmiles so she could go on a trip for cheap.

bought my grandmother a dvd player and a schwack of historical drama dvd’s. she’s over the moon.

I gave my jacket to a homeless person on the weekend because it was pouring rain and she was freezing. I have to admit that I was almost home and it was a jacket I didn’t particularly care for, but all the same, she was happy.

Agreed to volunteer for the Arthritis Society at the Diva’s on the Run event in March. I wasn’t going to include it on this list, but the organizer seemed pretty happy, so here it is.

I called my grandmother and didn’t once try to get off the phone. Not for 2 hours.

I tried to make a list of 100 things that make people happy, but they were general and not guaranteed to work on everyone, so I think I’ll just make it up as I go along.

1. This weekend my girlfriend was feeling sad, so I took her for breakfast at the Lucky Diner. Their slogan is “come sad, leave happy” so I figured it was worth a shot. I think it worked.
