Crazy Things My Husband Does in His Sleep

At approximately 2:00 am this morning, I wake to my husband thrashing around frisking me.  I asked him what he was doing and the conversation goes like this:

Me:  What are you doing?? (in a half-asleep voice)

Bryon:  Looking for the eggs I bought.

Me:  Well, hopefully they aren't here in the bed.

Bryon:  Of course they aren't! (In a "did you seriously just say that" tone)

Me:  I think you are dreaming.  I love you.

Bryon: What?  I couldn't hear you.

I repeat myself.

Bryon: Okay, love you too.

I thought by this point I had woken him up out of his dream...then he started frisking the bed and me again.

Bryon: I guess they aren't here.

And he rolls over like nothing ever happened.

I love my husband! He makes me laugh in the middle of the night!! :)

Put a Smile on Your Face!

I just finished reading The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin last night.  She spent a year of her life committed to improving her own happiness.  I enjoyed her take on her project because she portrayed her life in that year pretty realistic (complete with her failures and successes).

Important points that I took away from this read:
1.  It isn't always easy to focus on the positive; in fact, it takes a lot of work to change your mentality.
2.  Everybody's definition of "happiness" is individual.  What makes someone else happy won't necessarily make me happy, nor should it.
3.  Stay true to yourself.
4.  Don't be afraid to branch out and try new things.  If you don't like it, at least you will have a greater appreciation for what you already do and have.
5.  It is important to be in the present moment.  A lot of negativity can result if you constantly dwell in the past or worry about the future.
6.  Remember...if you don't feel happy at the moment, you can always fake it.  After awhile, you will be amazed at how good you can feel if you put effort into it.

So...Put a Smile on Your Face!!  It's a Great Day!!
