30 Day Happiness Challenge: Day 11

This is the middle third. The beginning of the middle third of this challenge. It’s where I like to think I am in my life, assuming I have any idea how long I will live. That’s the thing, though. I don’t. This isn’t going to be a live every day like it’s your last kind […]

30 Day Happiness Challenge: Day 10

Woohoo, ten days of doing something. That’s kind of how it feels sometimes anyway. Here’s the challenge breakdown for today. Meditation Went for seven minutes at my office in the morning. I feel like this works well for me because I get there earlier than everyone else, and I have a pretty decent chance of […]

30 Day Happiness Challenge: Day 9

Pretty decent day overall. Here’s how the challenge broke down. Meditation Got it done just before writing this post. I often feel like the five minutes I’m able to squeeze in isn’t all that helpful, but I appreciate the idea that I at least got it done. Exercise I ran around the house with Theo […]

30 Day Happiness Challenge: Day 8

Gonna be a little short today probably. On account the time and energy. Meditation Did mine at lunch again. I think I’m okay with that, but I feel like there’s a little extra stress of never being quite sure if someone is going to knock on my door or try to come in my office […]

30 Day Happiness Challenge: Day 7

Seven days is a week. In case you didn’t know. It’s also not easily divisible into 30, which is probably why the original 5 task idea was for 28 days, but here we are. Meditation I did my meditating on my lunch break today. It was short (about five minutes). It didn’t feel that great […]

Week in Review: 50 Days in Review

I didn’t notice until after I posted yesterday that it was my fiftieth entry on the blog. So, instead of some insightful intro/retrospection, I just wrote about typing. But you probably didn’t notice either, so I don’t feel that bad. You also probably didn’t read that post, but I don’t feel too bad about that either. […]
