happy days

When I was a kid, 8 pm on Tuesdays meant one thing---Happy Days (followed by Laverne & Shirley at 8:30, of course. And then bedtime). To start this week, here are 10 ways to have your own happy days, courtesy of Richie and Joanie's TV mom, Marion Ross (and have you seen her lately? She looks FABULOUS!).

*Clear your clutter: every morning take out the garbage and gather up old newspapers.

*Send a letter to a friend---a REAL letter, not e-mail.

*Make time for a 40-minute walk (This I will vouch for: on the days I make time for exercise I always have more energy and am better able to handle problems that pop up later in the day.)

*Spend sometime in the garden. (Or at the very least outdoors.)

*Give your pet some "sugar". (Absolutely!)

*Learn something new.

*Eat right. (PLEASE, it's the best thing you can do for yourself!)

*Buy new underwear.

*Escape, just for a little while. (Just a few hours in the city does the job for me :-)

*Fix what's broken.


Happy Monday!!!
