*One of my 2021 goals was to keep a Happiness Highlights journal. I plan on sharing some of my happy moments each month to hold myself accountable. I hope they help you pause and recognize all the great small things that are happening in your life.*
July has been a fun and relaxing month for me. I took a break from posting on my blog, I went to the beach, and my husband and I celebrated our 9th anniversary.
July Happiness Highlights:
- Playing pickleball.
- The heart-shaped rock my daughter found at the beach and gifted to me.
- Watching my 2-year-old ride her bike.
- The 12-mile bike ride with my dad.
- Returning home after my vacation.
- Watching fireworks with my family.
Do you have any Happiness Highlights from your month that you would like to share? If you wrote a post about something that brought you joy, include a link!
Glad you had a chance for a little break in July. We have 2 weeks off coming up. I am ready for that!
July has been an interesting month. It was my birthday and our anniversary but we’re still under pandemic restrictions so it was mostly a non-celebration.
The highlight was our older daughter came home from college for a couple of weeks. It was great to have her home. Because of the pandemic, we have spent very little time with her since she left last August.
The break was nice. I feel like I was able to get ahead a little with blogging and then sit back and enjoy the sunshine.😁☀️
I’m glad you were able to get to spend some time with your daughter.😁
Sounds like a cute month! 🙂
I re-launched my brand after the lockdown lifted in India and launched it’s own website in July – made me very happy! 🙂
That is awesome! I’ll check it out.
What a lovely post. I am going to consider carefully as we move into August. Sometimes we forget to notice the good.
I hope you have an amazing August! You’ll find lots of awesome moments when you pause and take the time to look.
This is my favorite series of your posts, Suzanne. I’m happy to hear you got a little break and celebrated your anniversary! Congrats! What is pickleball?? I guess the one thing that made me happiest last month is the onset of our monsoons. And they feel like real monsoons, not like the skimpy seasons we can sometimes have! Everything is growing madly, including a ton of wildflowers all around town! Happy August, my friend! 🌞
I’m glad you like it. It’s always a fun post for me to write.
Pickleball is a paddleball sport. It is a little like tennis/ping pong combined. You play on a court similar but smaller then tennis and use a paddle with basically a wiffle ball. It is tons of fun!
Enjoy all your wildflowers! That sounds amazing!🌻
Thank you for explaining! 🌞
