Happiness In Photos

One of my favorite things about writing my Rock Your Happy Newsletter each week is that it forces me to regularly get out my big girl camera to take pictures of things I love. I thought it might be fun to share the header images I’ve used so far for the 11 Rock Your Happy newsletters I’ve sent…

The Rock Your Happy Newsletter #16 – Margarita Wisdom

Hi friends! I was in New York last week and spent one very fun afternoon with my wise and inspirational friend, Gina. She gave me a tiny scolding for failing to send out myweekly happy newsletters this summer. After a few margaritas (she doesn’t normally drink tequila, I haven’t had alcohol in many months) we…

The Rock Your Happy Newsletter #15 – Bottle It Up

Hi friends! We’re 5 days into summer break and I’ve already had at least one of those “can we just bottle this day up and pull it out whenever we want another day of perfection?”. This week has been pretty great, but this one particular day made me so happy. Some of the highlights were……

The Rock Your Happy Newsletter #11 – Baby Oil And Tin Foil

Hi friends! When I was in middle school, my mom once grounded me because she caught me listening to Prince’s Purple Rain.  I loved Prince…let’s face it, as my friend Kelly has said, he was the soundtrack to my generations teenage years. He pushed the envelope like no other but wow, he was one heck…

The Rock Your Happy Newsletter #10 – You Make Me Purr

TGIF, friends! I’ve been thinking about my cat a lot lately. We got Slim Shady this past August, completely on a whim. I had previously had a cat for 15 years that my husband and I had to put to sleep 13 years ago. I had really missed having a cat, but I wasn’t ready…
