#100happydays Day 50 - 56! Week 8 Is Done And Dusted

We have officially crossed the half way stage. Can't believe that week 8 is out the way. Only 44 days left to go! Are you all finding happiness in the little things? Why not comment about what you found happy today - even if it was just a cup of tea at the end of the day!

Day 50) BANK HOLIDAY! No alarms for Megan! Had a lovely day in bed and did a whole load of colouring in my book. I also managed to watch an entire series of Grace and Frankie on Netflix in one day.


Day 51) Had a lovely catch up with Belinda over dinner at Giraffe in the sunshine. Then off to ballroom dancing for a lovely Waltz and Cha Cha session. Such fun.


52) I spent my Wednesday at Holiday Club, this was fine but it was followed by a very long meeting. I was very glad to see my bed after that! (Reusing an old photo as I was actually too tired to take a photo on Wednesday).


Day 53) Thursday was another Holiday Club day. We made 3D lego figures and put on a puppet show. Lots of giggles were had. 


Day 54) Baking Welsh Rarebit muffins at Holiday Club on Friday. We avoided the thunder storm and sang a little song to the rain but it still didn't go away! ALL THE RAIN HAPPENED! 


Day 55) Saturday was crazy! I drove to Portsmouth (about an hour) for brunch with Lydia, one of my closest friends from uni. It was lovely to see her and put the worlds to rights. I then drove to Surbiton from Portsmouth (about and hour and a quarter) to pick up the lovely Sarah. We drove back to Guildford (half an hour) to pick up movies, pjs and Bananagrams and then went ice skating and bowling at Guildford Spectrum. After that we drove back to Kingston (25 mins) for drinking, movies, Bananagrams and pizza. My little car was very tired by the end of it all but much fun was had all round. I now want to invest in some ice skating lessons and have learnt that I am actually quite good at bowling (when there aren't 18 other people watching me). 


Day 56) Blog related happy day! I reached 1000 views for this little rambling blog of my inner dialogues. It made me very pleased to have reached the milestone! 


And there you go! Week 8 over and done with.

Have a happy week, remember the find joy in the small things, especially when you are having a crappy day. Just finding one or two small positives can help take the edge of when life throws rubbish in your way.

Stay happy!

Week 3 of #100happydays - 21 days down!

Another week done of my #100happydays challenge. Here are days 15 to 21. 

Day 15) My week started out with a very chilled evening in front of the movie 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' which was brilliant... and my new colouring book. I'm getting a little addicted to it - lots of fun.

 

Day 16) I had a really tough start to the week at school this week and I got this message from a friend just at the right moment. It was great to get into my car and have this waiting for me at the end of a really tough day. 


Day 17) More colouring. I took advantage of the sunshine and sat out in the garden with a colleague having a good catch up and working on my colour schemes. Was a really lovely afternoon - so glad the summer is on it's way so that I can do more of this!


Day 18) MORE COLOURING! WAHOO! *please hide pens.... I am doing nothing but colour and blog and then colour again....*


Day 19) Friday! Phew! It was a long week and I rewarded myself with a nerdy movie, which I LOVE and.... you guessed it. Colouring!! Love how it is coming together - not much left to do now before it will look properly finished. 


Day 20) Took a break from the colouring over the weekend to attend a Quiz Night. They had fish and chips for everyone half way through the quiz. The Dancing Queens (our team) didn't do too badly. 63 and a 1/2 out of 75. Very pleased with that score. 


Day 21) Great afternoon chilling with my Godfather and his family. He introduced me to the crazy film that is Flash Gordon and we relived my childhood by playing Frustration! Also played Wii games and had a good natter. Gotta love hanging with the extended God family! Always a brilliant laugh.


So there is my third happy week over and done with.
I hope you are all still smiling and finding things to be happy about in your day to day lives!

Check in soon
