i’m over the hump! i have made it over halfway through my 100 happy days challenge. and while i sometimes slip and don’t get a chance to post about something that made my day, i can honestly say i’m happy every single one of them.

anything and everything is reason enough to find some joy - be it a delicious lunch, my toddler saying something that cracks me up, or the kindness of family and friends. it’s nice to be able to look back at the little and big things, as time is passing so fast, so this challenge to take the time to identify those things on the daily is really nice. it makes for a more thankful and appreciative existence.

and even though this challenge is for 100 days, i want to, and plan to keep doing it. whether it be on ig or not, i think the documentation of these things is an important practice.

47 / a clean safe happy and comfort filled home.

and yes , i also have a range of other emotions throughout my days, like frustration, exhaustion, annoyance, delight, excitement and enthusiasm. i’m only human after all.

40 / she sleeps. #thedaanidiaries. meanwhile, in another room, she does not. oh niyya, what will i do with you.

7 / it’s crazy to think thirty plus years went by without trying beets. what was i thinking?! happy to have discovered this intensely-coloured, antioxidant-rich superfood. and for this delicious apple carrot beet juice i made this am. you can find the recipe on my pinterest.

you can check out the rest of my happy days on ig here.

did any one else take on this challenge? how has it been going? how can i follow along on your journey? let me know in the comments! and if you haven’t started, there’s no time like the present. click here for more info and sign up!
