August Happiness Challenge – Day 6

My 2025 Happiness Icon

Today's happiness: Accomplishment. It was uncomfortable at the card shop today because the a/c is busted. When I got home, all I wanted to do was veg out. Not only was I worn out from work, but it was Judy Garland Day on TCM Summer Under the Stars!
 
But at about 9:00 tonight, I looked over my evening and instead of feeling relaxing, it felt like an opportunity wasted. So I got off my fat ass and took some Dawn dishwashing liquid into the bathroom. Using a toothbrush reserved solely for this purpose, I cleaned the caulk around the tub. Then I soaked my bathtub drain stopper.  
 
Even though it only took about 20 minutes, I'm happy that I overcame my lazy tendency and did something. Feels good.
 
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.
