#100HappyDays

I need to publicly acknowledge my lack of commitment to this blog/project since March. I am giving myself kudos for completing my initial 365 days as I had intended.

46 days ago I committed to the #100HappyDays challenge and have been posting to my Facebook. Although technically I am meant to post a picture for each day I haven't taken one each day so I post a status instead.

Being happy and grateful for me are one and the same!
