I thought I would share some things that are making me happy right now at a time when it feels hard to be optimistic about life. If I hear one more word about the economy or job loss or health care woes I'm going to scream. I need to be surrounded by people and things that make me feel like I can face another day with a smile. Obviously my children and Randy make me happy but sometimes you need an escape from everything. Music provides such a release for me. It can instantly change my mood and outlook on life. I have been a fan of Raphael Saadiq since his days with Tony Toni Tone and Lucy Pearl but his latest album might be my favorite. I love my music with some soul but that I can also shake my booty to and this meets both requirements.
Also, Anthony Hamilton never disappoints and his new album is also full of some luscious R&B soul. His voice might be the sexiest thing I've ever heard....too much information , I know.
Next, the new Yoga Studio in Saratoga Springs makes me super happy. It's called Living Yoga and it's right next to Smith's. The owner is a great teacher and she offers some great classes for all levels. I really hope this studio makes it, so if you need a great yoga class check it out.
Now, for what is making me the happiest girl in the world....how does an all expense paid trip to Fiji for a week sound? My amazing insurance selling husband earned us the trip of a lifetime. All the long hours of hard work will pay off the first week of May. I can't wait!
Now, for what makes Hank happy...toon town, no big surprise but toon town with Grandpa Griff at our house, it doesn't get any better. Grandpa came for a visit this weekend and Hank is the happiest kid in the world. Grandpa brought his computer so they could play toon town together. I don't think I've ever seen Hank so excited. I couldn't break up the three amigos and I let him play until eleven last night.
The concentration level was high at this point. Who knew toon town could be so intense!
It was better than Christmas over here last night for this little boy.

Nice list Annie, anything to lift the spirit these days. The yoga center sounds cool; I need to get back into it. It helped a lot with my strength and endurance when I did yoga and then rode my bike. Speaking of making someone happy--spring is coming up! Congrats on the Fiji trip. You and Randy deserve all the best things in life.
it's a good thing you have a sister to make you happy... cough, cough
Dude for real about people that won't stop talking about the economy. It pisses me off!
Congrats on the trip i'm so jealous. Maybe I should check out this toon town thing.
