This is my happy face!


My BFFF often times is super thoughtful and be-gifts me books that she is either reading or has read and has found inspiring. Her most recent book gift is The Happiness Project by Gretcen Rubin. She actually gave it to me several months ago, but sometimes I have a hard time reading a book that isn't on my iPod...ha! ha!

So I just found out that I have my HS reunion in nearly 2 months and I have got to get my myself in shape both physically and mentally. So today marks a new day...super hardcore work-outs and major protein, with very little bread. And then finding the best me....and that is where this book comes in. Last night I sat on my front porch reading the book about how the author, Grethen, took a year of her life and tried to become a happier, fuller version of herself. To begin with, she was not unhappy (neither am I), but she wanted to appreciate and live her life fuller (which I should really try myself.)

Ironically I also got an email from one of my favorite stores, Anthropologie, pimping the same book. So I figure if my favorite girlfriend and my favorite store liked it, I am going to LOVE the book. Stay tuned!

Here we go....
