August Happiness Challenge -- Day 8

Look at my happy kitty

I fit into my Levis! I haven't been "dieting," per se. But I have been eating smarter and better. Last week, my friend John insisted I'd lost weight but I paid him no mind. This morning I was looking for a pair of jeans with a darker wash and slipped these on. They fit! Snug, to be sure, but still, I got 'em on.
 
Each day in August you are to post about something that makes *you* happy. Pretty simple. And, it doesn't even have to be every day if you don't want it to be. It's a great way to remind ourselves that there are positive things going on in our lives, our communities, and the world.

If you want to play along, just come back here (meaning to this blog, not this individual post) each day in August, looking for the happy cat. Every day I will try to have a post with the headline: August Happiness Challenge: Day [X]. Leave a comment and then post your own daily happiness, with August Happiness Challenge in the title to make it easy to find.
