Okay, it has been almost 7 months since I have made a post. I am going to try to do better. Yesterday I posted my Facebook status as "just plain happy". An old high school classmate and new Facebook friend asked me to "share the recipe". This morning I looked at Jana's blog and saw that the had posted a list of what makes her happy and asked others to post their list as well. I don't know if it is the good weather or the thought of an upcoming 3-day weekend, but happiness seems to be on the mind.

As for my "recipe", I am not sure there is one, it probably changes from day to day like my mood. But I have found that it is hard to be unhappy when I am counting my blessings. I've learned that even my trials can blessings if lessons are learned by them. Below is today's happiness list:



Going to Tucson to watch Brig & Raegan, but knowing Greg is at home missing me

Getting an "I love you" phone message from Luke

The look on Dallas' face when I show up to work

Stacie & Rauland coming to Utah this fall

Alan - REALLY!

Can I also add: a business that is surviving this crummy ecomony, living at the foot of such beautiful mountains, getting our auto insurance problem resolved, . . . .and (directly related to all of the above) answered prayers.
