the happiness project | week one

my friend lindsay over at scenic glory has begun "the happiness project." it involves making a commitment to do something each week that will contribute to your ultimate happiness. her first one is declutter, which i think is a great idea. i've been trying to declutter for months now. i mean, i've been trying to keep on top of clutter because keeping everything in it's rightful place and avoiding clutter leaves my mind free to think clearly. i swear. even when i was in school - i couldn't sit down and write am essay until everything around me was neat and tidy. so that's something i will keep working on.

but i think for my first week of the happiness project i will bicycle to work. i have two jobs and i'm working at the closer one all next week so it's a good time to get into the habit i think, and then after that i'll ride to this job three times a week. will i ride to the other job? no - that's not going to happen - are you crazy? it takes three busses just to get there. luckily i have a husband who just loves to tote me around town. and he's been very good about giving me rides, but i hope i can keep this biking thing up till winter and hopefully give him half of the week off!

i'll update next weekend about how it went!
