happiness challenge

I am accepting the happiness challenge. That I found at The Gal Herself's blog (and it's a long and windy road to get here from there).

"Each day in August you are to post about something that makes *you* happy. Pretty simple. And, it doesn't even have to be every day if you don't want it to be. It's a great way to remind ourselves that there are positive things going on in our lives, our communities, and the world."

So, I invite you to check out the side-bar called Happy Dog Days to see what makes me happy each day in August. And this is going to be a big, busy month--with school returning to session, doctor appointments to juggle... and life to live.
