You Heard It Here: Happiness Is
Since I make the first post of the month something about Hollywood, I decided to talk about the things that make me happy in the last post of the month. (That leaves the middle for everything in between!)
So… lately, I’ve been trying to focus on the good things in my life. Those that know me, know I’m fairly easy to please. I love my family, dogs and Chai lattes. I love my new day job and being back on the set. I love my new Prius. Wait… I’ve killed 5 blogs already with this list, so I’ll slow down.
This month is an easy one:
Happiness is the pride I feel while watching my husband direct multiple episodes of a new Disney show. He’s worked so hard to get to this place where everyone appreciates his ability to find humor even when it isn’t written in the script. Not to mention the fact that he makes it look effortless as he puts his vision on camera. Here he is with the star of the show, “Crash and Bernstein,” Cole Jensen.
I guess I could embellish this a little more and say happiness is loving the man I married twenty-three years ago even more as I watch his dreams come true.
What about you? What makes you happy? Are you easy to please? Do you find enjoyment from the simple things in life?
is…. reading a warm and upbeat blog this morning. I do find simple pleasures. Out of the blue yesterday my toddler pointed to a dog and said “It’s a pup!” and shrieked with joy. His first sentence. Sniffle.
Thanks for writing. I so enjoy your blogs.

Hi Sophie,
Aw… very sweet of you say, thank you! And your pleasure is shared. You made me sniffle too, remembering my daughter when she was that age. Another simple pleasure… Fond memories. Thanks for coming by and I’m so happy you enjoy the blog. Have a great Turkey Day. 🙂
That’s so awesome. Congrats to your husband!
Me? Easy. Good cup of coffee is all it takes most days.
Hi Shawn,
Thank you! We’re excited here. I hear you… one good chai latte in the morning for me and I am ready for the day. Thanks for stopping in!
Happiness is having my daughter and son-in-law in state to share Thanksgiving with this year.
Hi Lynne,
Oh that is happiness! Yay! Not to mention the new furry member of the family who will be there too!
Oh, and for having a great critique partner who shall remain nameless. 🙂
Haha! Yes that is the best! I agree. Happiness is loving your crit partner. Um…do I know her? LOL.
Happiness is time with my family, definitely … but the Prius gives me a warm fuzzy too!
Hi Sam,
LOL on the warm fuzzies from the Prius. I feel the same way. And happiness is definitely a happy family. Can’t beat that. Thanks for dropping in!
Huge congrats to the hubby! I know how hard it can be to make it where he is, and that’s totally stellar.
For me? It’s being able to pay the bills, and still have a little cash left over. It’s being with the man I love, after all these years. It’s a warm cat, and a cool November morning. Simple joys, indeed!
Hugs hon!
Hi Christine,
Thank you! It has been a very long road, but I guess it makes the end result sweeter. I agree on paying the bills and being with the man I love. Life is definitely sweeter when we enjoy the little things. Thanks for coming by!
Yep, for me it’s all about family and friends. I’m so thankful to have many of both. I count my internet friends too. : )
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your household.
Hi Robena!
