August Happiness Challenge -- Day 11

Today's happiness: "Beach Baby"

Today was not going as I wanted it to. I had wanted to play outside -- it's one of those rare August summer days that isn't too hot and the leaves are all so lush and green! -- but let's say my gut had other plans. I was sad about the unfairness of it all, and then this song from 1974 came on the radio. I love the sound of it, and it made me miss juke boxes. (They're not only mentioned in the lyrics, I played it on the juke box back on the day.)

I am lucky that something so simple can lift my spirits so much.
 
Happy August Happiness Challenge!
 
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.
