The End of the Happiness Makeover!

Today was the last day of my "Happiness Makeover." We woke up to cold temps in the 40's and drizzly rain. Why is it that the dogs never seem to notice?

I really didn't have any plans but did have errands to run. But at one of my stops I ran into a friend of mine and her children that are not old enough to go to school. They were going to be going to lunch and asked me if I wanted to go with them. I had several things to do, and really didn't have the time. However one of the girls said to me, "Kim you have to come, you make everything gooder and funner!" I guess to some that comment doesn't make much sense, but when a 5 year old says it, it does and so I went to lunch with them. On my way home I realized that an unplanned lunch with a friend and her 2 kids was a "gooder and funner" way to end my Happiness Makeover!

I hope your week is gooder and funner too!

  1. Hi Kim,
    When you can make things "gooder and funner" for a 5 year old, that's something to really be proud of. What a great way to end the week :-)

  3. Unplanned lunches are great. Planned ones are pretty good too. Anything that takes you off of the normal path will help you enjoy life. If you keep zig-zagging when you move, they can't hit you!

  5. Kim, those spontaneous unplanned 'events' are the best! No time to think about what could go wrong and do I really want to go....etc.
    And how can you refuse such a cute request!

  6. That's quite a compliment from a five-year old. What I want to know is: Is there going to be a Happiness Maintenance Schedule?--Inger

  12. What a great example you set for all of us: caring for yourself at the same time as you devote so much time and energy to caring for others. Gooder and funner is right!
