Changes to my Project Happy

I haven't been keeping up with my Project Happy posts, but it isn't because i'm not participating in the project. I've been taking time every day to pause and reflect on the small moments that make me happy. It's just hard for me to remember to write them down, and then I get mad at myself because it's something I really wanted to participate in.

I've been trying to decide whether or not to focus energy on writing these weekly posts, and I've spent way too much brain power on the decision. Then this morning I jumped onto Karma Continued to read Jenny's latest post, and she solved the problem for me. Her version of Project Happy is to snap a daily picture based on Fat Mum Slim's photo a day prompts. What a fun, quick way to chronicle the small moments of happiness in my daily life, but not worry about writing them down and forming them into weekly blog posts.

I've decided to copy Jenny and take the daily pictures. Today is February 2nd, my first day, and the prompt is words. I see so many word pins on Pinterest that I love, and after browsing through a ton of them tonight, I chose this one:

Such a true quote. The happiness of our household is fully dependent on love, laughter, and LOTS of coffee!

I will post the pictures on Twitter daily, and then at the end of the month do a recap of my favorites. (Another idea stolen from Jenny...you really should read her blog, she's an amazing writer and a sweet, caring person who I would love to be real-life friends with if she didn't live across the country.)
