I just realized I haven't posted in a while. The reasons are many and varied (mostly that there hasn't been anything happy in my life these past several weeks).

But I have a few things this week.

First, This is what I currently look like:

If you can't tell, my hair is a lovely shade of blue. I have grown to like it; when first done, not so much. Before this it was purple but that washed out too quickly. Every where I go people tell me they love it. Not so my mother. Last night she stopped by to give me some cherry cobbler and when she left she said, "I love you but please don't do that to your hair again." As if she gets a say in what I do.

Second, my daughter has moved back to Texas. She is currently crashing at my mother's and HATES it. She got a job at The CMI Group (long time readers will remember I worked there back in 2010-2011) and is starting to hate that too. So her father's sister is helping her find a better job and a place to live.

The reason this is good is that she comes over on Tuesdays and we watch The Fosters and Switched at Birth together (and Teen Wolf when it returns from hiatus).

I am currently working Monday-Friday at work due to a A being on maternity leave. While I enjoy the extra time at home in the mornings, I prefer having two and a half days off (nine hours Tuesday-Thursday, eight hours Friday and five hours Saturday) because I get SO much more done.

What's making you happy this week?

This is the weekly post where you can tell others about something that made you happy this past week. It can be something you take pride in like something you did that was difficult for you, something that made your day like getting that job you really want, learning an interesting new fact, or even just something that made you smile/laugh.

Feel free to comment anonymously or not, it's totally up to you. Also, you don't have to wait until Mondays to comment.

While typing my last post I was reminded that it's Monday (okay, I knew that but...) and that means it's time for our first 'spreading the happy' post.

As you may or may not (based on how long you've followed this blog) at this time every year I participate in a two week challenge called Snowflake Challenge.

The challenge for yesterday was to make three resolutions/goals for the coming year. I don't usually do this because I never keep them more than a few months at most.

But I'm trying to improve my life and decided to make some this time. One of them is to post more happy content/less rants. But that's not to say that I won't ever post a rant ever again, just that it will be about something that pisses me off.

Before I knew what the challenge was I had planned a post about something that I saw at work that annoyed me. After seeing the post, I decided to not make that post.

And then today, L addressed the issue so either it bothered someone else as well, or L saw and realized she needed to say something.

I follow a blog that used to host a pride thread post every Monday. She hasn't posted one for several months but knowing what I know about her off line life, I can't say as I blame her.

So, since I miss those posts, I'm going to start doing it myself. Plus this gives me a guaranteed once a week happy post. I'm going to start posting it on Mondays starting either this Monday or next. But I want to go ahead and brag about myself now.

For the record, this isn't just about telling others when you've done something to be proud of, if you saw something that made you happy: post it; if you got some great (or even just good) news: post it. In short, we're trying to spread the happy.

My follower list is small so please feel free to promote this in your own personal blog. And please be sure to tell your followers that if they don't want to have to read about my personal life, they can just track the 'spreading the happy' tag.

My first contribution will be in a comment.
