Welcome to the last Feta Friday! Is it just me, or did July FLY by? I can’t believe Sunday is August 1st! I love summer but am really looking forward to fall.
Today’s deep thought-provoking-feta-winning question: are you happy?
It’s a simple question, really, but can be pretty tough to answer honestly. I’m not asking if you are happy in your life or anything…just today, July 30th 2010, are you happy? Today?
As always, a winner will be picked at random this evening and announced tomorrow morning.

Stephanie
July 30, 2010 at 7:57 amThis is actually a really relevant question for me because it was only last week I determined “I am happy.” I quit my stressful job two weeks ago and am moving back to a place I love. I couldn’t be happier.
A @ Please Don't Eat Me!

natalie p
July 30, 2010 at 7:58 amtoday hasn’t happened yet, but at this very moment, now, today, I am typing a response in hopes of winning feta goodies. thinking about feta makes me happy, oddly, so i answer yes!
Sara Palacios

Coco
July 30, 2010 at 8:01 amhmmm, maybe i am the only one with a negative answer so far, but today i am NOT happy. a friend of mine died a few days ago and her funeral is this weekend. so perhaps i have a good excuse? i generally look on the bright side of life, but today i need to just accept my unhappiness and grieve before i can move on. i’d rather let myself feel grief and sadness than push it away.
Lisa @ My High-Carb Lifestyle
July 30, 2010 at 8:49 amI’m so sorry for your loss. I agree that it’s important to allow yourself to grieve when you lose someone. I hope you can find peace and solace.
Sara Palacios
July 30, 2010 at 11:23 amI’m so sorry for your loss! 🙁

rayshine
July 30, 2010 at 8:03 amI would say that as of today, I am happy. I got to sleep in, have a delicious breakfast and just relax on this beautiful day off from work. Baking goodies is on the horizon too, so I can’t say I’m complaining about that! 😀

Elizabeth

Abby
July 30, 2010 at 8:09 amYES! Today and most days I am very happy! I actually had a conversation such as this with my fiance last night. We were discussing where we wanted to end up (city and state, i mean) and we started thinking… we met in Oregon (were happy there), moved to Tampa (happy there too) and now we moved to Charlottesville and yep, happy here as well! We decided it wasn’t the location but US that were the winning happy combo!
Alexis

duffy
July 30, 2010 at 8:13 amThis morning I woke up and rolled over to look at my fiance sound asleep next to me. He smelled so good, so I cuddled up against him for a few minutes and just thought about how lucky I am to be in love with him. And yes, I am happy.
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 8:13 amI’m SO happy! I am on my way to Colorado to see my best friend (since birth). We’re driving, and I sure do love road trips!
Sara

Emily
July 30, 2010 at 8:13 amFriday morning, 8:10a. I am sitting on a couch, in my pajamas, contemplating oatmeal for breakfast. Am I happy? I would say that I am content and very close to happy. My family loves me, my body is strong and healthy, and the sun is shining outside on this beautiful Californian morning. What else could a girl want?
Steph
July 30, 2010 at 8:15 amAbsolutely! Happiness comes from within 🙂
Jenna @ JoyfulDogs
July 30, 2010 at 8:16 amI am definitely happy. My husband finished the Bar exam yesterday. Studying for it is grueling, three month studyfest. I am sooooooooooo happy to have him back:)
Olivia
July 30, 2010 at 8:16 amI am SO happy today – just ended my last week of law school. Never thought I’d make it this far!!
Paula
July 30, 2010 at 8:16 am30% happy as I just polished off a bowl of granola, almond milk and banana and am now in the middle of some serious dragging my feet to get in the car and go to a job that makes my shine feel dull.
Mary
July 30, 2010 at 8:17 amYes I am very happy. Started this gorgeous day with an 11 mile run before work!!!
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 8:17 amLast night I had one of those moments where you realize just how much you love the place you live and all it has to offer! I love those moments and they make me extremely happy!
ashley

Camille
July 30, 2010 at 8:20 amI am the happiest I have been in a long time. I have an incredible boyfriend at my side, a new kitten child, and I am about to move away from the city I have been dying to leave for about 15 years. I have never been happier.

Gavi @ GaviGetsGoing!

Katherine

Suzanne de Cornelia
July 30, 2010 at 8:24 am90 billion people have lived in the last 10,000 years. Today’s average high school grad w/access to a computer is smarter with more opportunities than 99% of them. Am I happy? You Betcha!
Kristan
July 30, 2010 at 8:26 amYes I am happy. I have been working out for a year, watching my portions, and have lost 40 pounds. I am married to my best friend and I love my job. Everyday I am learning new things and doing new things. This weekend I am picking my own corn from my own garden. Probably 100 cobs or so!!!!
Jen f.
July 30, 2010 at 8:28 amI’m happy it’s Friday but not happy because I start 24×7 on call tonight!!!!
Hilary
July 30, 2010 at 8:28 amYup, today is a happy day! I am chowing down on some protein pancakes, realizing they are BETTER than “regular” pancakes. Plus, tonight I get to spend time with friends and family at a grooms supper.
sonia
July 30, 2010 at 8:29 amYes, I am happy. I have a loving husband and two supportive sets of parents (mine and the in-laws), a great job and amazing friends. I am on my way to become a parent. I am at a point now where I am ready to make peace with my past and working towards letting go of “had beens” or “what ifs”. What more could one ask for?
Corinne
July 30, 2010 at 8:29 amYes, I am the happiest I have been in a long time actually 🙂
Maggie
July 30, 2010 at 8:29 amToday I am very happy…très très heureuse!!! My mom is recovering from heart surgery, my 2 little darlings are happy to be spending the day with grandpa playing pirate games and in a couple of hours I’m on vacation!

Heather (Heather's Dish)
July 30, 2010 at 8:34 amthat’s a tough question! i would say that i’m 85% happy. i love my life, my husband, my family, my God. I just want to find happiness on a job level…but the great news is that I know a direction (finally!) for the first time in my life!
Kerry
July 30, 2010 at 8:34 amOh yes, I am happy.
Scargosun
July 30, 2010 at 8:34 amToday I am happy. I am actually smiling while a say it. I am generally not an optimist so this is a good thing today and it didn’t even take much. I had a good run in nice weather, a yummy breakfast and I am looking forward to lunch on the roof at Whole Foods. 🙂
Diane
July 30, 2010 at 8:35 amI spent the evening last night with my mom…shopping, laughing and cooking. It’s time like that, that make me realize I’m happy that me and my mom have finally gotten over our differences and are able to truly enjoy each other!
Emily B
July 30, 2010 at 8:35 ami am not only happy, i’m thrilled!!!! it’s friday, i’m leaving work at 1 pm, Big Guy (my boyfriend) is on a plane home as we speak, and i see a glass of wine in my near future. what’s there to be unhappy about?!?!?!
Ashley
July 30, 2010 at 8:35 amYes I am, I had an awesome workout…..made some yummy organic coffee…and delicious smoothie….I am happy and LUCKY…..I am reminded of that every time when I read books such as Stones for Schools (which I’m reading right now) how lucky we all are to live in such affluent countries.
Melissa Strickland
July 30, 2010 at 8:36 amI am definitely happy. Actually, I have joy. I am a devout Christian, and from my experiences, Biblical studies and growing relationship with the Lord, I know that the joy I have is not dependent on any thing or person, season, or time of day. The only two things constant in my life are time and Jesus. So, although there are things in my life that I am happy to have, and people in my life that I am happy to know, including my precious children, they are NOT the SOURCE of my joy. Because I’ve learned to depend on Him for my joy (happiness and gratefulness for the moments I have now) I’ll always have it. As a well-known gospel song goes “the joy I have, the world didn’t give it, and the world can’t take it away!”
Allison
July 30, 2010 at 8:36 amIt’s Friday…YES!!!
postcollegecook
July 30, 2010 at 8:37 amI am happy today because I’m off work and heading up north to go camping with friends!
Claire
July 30, 2010 at 8:37 amI’m finishing up wedding plans, am at the end of my first trimester (no more morning sickness), just got over a hump in Thesis work, and am looking forward to a beautiful farmer’s market this afternoon. I must say I’m very happy today. 😀
miche98
July 30, 2010 at 8:37 amI am happy. It is Friday!!!
Roberta Hutcheon
July 30, 2010 at 8:37 amI am a very Happy person, I have so many things in my life that I am so grateful for and so very blessed to have.
Kelly
July 30, 2010 at 8:37 amI am super happy! 🙂
christina
July 30, 2010 at 8:38 ami am happy! i am so blessed to have my family and friends!
Dana
July 30, 2010 at 8:38 amYES!!!
Traci
July 30, 2010 at 8:38 amHappy? Yes & no today. I am a happy person by nature but last night I ended things with my boyfriend of over a year. Kind of bittersweet but it was for the best. So yes I guess I AM happy because I can move on and find the person I am meant to be with. A mantra a repeat every day “Happiness is a Decision”. Indeed it IS!!!
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat
July 30, 2010 at 8:39 amI’m so glad you asked! To be honest, earlier this week I wasn’t very happy. I’ve been stressed about what I’m going to do for work now that I’m done university, but yesterday I spent most of my time reading and just doing stuff I like to do. This morning, I feel SO happy and content with myself, and I think part of it is because I’ve decided that whatever is meant to happen will happen. 🙂
Amanda @ Vegacious
July 30, 2010 at 8:39 amAbsolutely! 🙂
Kelsey H
July 30, 2010 at 8:39 amto me, happiness comes and goes and can depend on a lot of factors outside of your control, including things you may not be experiencing directly, but that could be going on in your loved ones’ lives. to me, joy is something that can never be taken away or lost despite life’s circumstances.
Beth
July 30, 2010 at 8:39 amYes! 🙂
Tessa
July 30, 2010 at 8:39 amTo be honest, not so much today. I am a Southern girl who just recently relocated up North and I’ve been really homesick and lonely these past few days. But the day isn’t over yet, so maybe if I can just keep reminding myself of all the things I have to be grateful for, I can turn this frown upside down. 😉
moxie79
July 30, 2010 at 8:40 amThat would be a definite yes!
Rosanne
July 30, 2010 at 8:40 amYes, I am very happy! Today is my best friend’s birthday, she is truly one of the most amazing people that you will ever meet.
Samantha
July 30, 2010 at 8:40 amAbsolutely. Today is a good day.
Andrea
July 30, 2010 at 8:40 amYes, because it’s Friday!
Sejal M
July 30, 2010 at 8:41 amI am indeed happy today. My little son (9 months old) is down for his morning nap, I am waiting for him to awake so we can headout to Starbucks to meet a friend and then go for a long walk. We’re both teachers and on summer vacation!
Rachel
July 30, 2010 at 8:41 amYes, in fact I am so very happy! I gave my notice recently at my current job, my last day is a week from today and I’ve decided to take a full three weeks off… the longest break I’ve had between jobs in 15 years! I’m so excited to see what happens next. Every moment counts and I’m so happy to be aware of that!
Alexis
July 30, 2010 at 8:41 amYes I am very happy. While there may be some emotional stress going on in my life at the moment, I have so many wonderful ways to de-stress. Be it running, yoga, bloggin’ (!!), or just talking things out with my amazing friends. It doesn’t get better than knowing that no matter what life throws your way, you will have the greatest support system to get you through. And that makes me so happy I just might cry!
Stina @ Girl Can
July 30, 2010 at 8:41 amI’m happy it’s Friday, but beyond that I’m sleepy and little out of it today.
Juliene
July 30, 2010 at 8:42 amUnfortunately not so happy today. Woke up feeling sick and still had to come to work! BOO!
Terri from Sunnyvale, CA
July 30, 2010 at 8:42 amYes, I’m very happy!
Lacey Q
July 30, 2010 at 8:42 amYes, I am happy! I already got my run in today, my house is clean & it’s Friday. What more could a girl want? 🙂
Heather
July 30, 2010 at 8:43 amI so deeply want to say yes to this, as it’s Friday, it’s summer, and I have a fun spa day with my mom to look forward to tomorrow. Sadly, other items are infiltrating my psyche and I am not happy at all today 🙁 GAH.
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 8:43 amYES, it’s Friday and 90 instead of 100 degrees! Score.
Lindsay
July 30, 2010 at 8:44 amI am happy today – it’s friday and my birthday was this week!
Lindsey
July 30, 2010 at 8:44 amYES!! I am happy to be alive each and every day of my life 🙂 Although I’m nervous about something at work today, it is what it is, and I will “Keep Calm and Carry On.”
Marg
July 30, 2010 at 8:45 amMost of the time, sometimes not!
jenna
July 30, 2010 at 8:45 ami am happy! it’s friday! 🙂 woot woot
Tracey @ I'm Not Superhuman
July 30, 2010 at 8:45 amAh, I want to say Yes and be all positive and bring sunshine and rainbows and puppy dogs to your blog. 🙂 But no. I’m dealing with a lot of health issues now that kind of suck the happy out of me. I know, I know, you can choose to be happy, yada yada yada.
Jen
July 30, 2010 at 8:45 amI am SO happy today! My fiance works second shift and I rarely see him during the week, so I always get excited about the weekends. Also, my sister and bro-in-law are driving in from out-of-state for a weekend visit! AND I’m going to my favorite restaurant tonight – plus, I have a $10 off coupon, so that means an extra cocktail! Oh, and I get to leave work 2 hours early! I really don’t think it gets better than this!
Corie
July 30, 2010 at 8:45 amYes, I am happy! Thank-you for asking and thank-you for these contests! 🙂 Have a happy weekend!
josie
July 30, 2010 at 8:45 amyes!
(my husband, my education, and 4 new sweaters from uniqlo happy!)
Natalie (The Sweets Life)
July 30, 2010 at 8:46 amI’m happy, esp since I’m headed to San Diego today. And I’m trying to remain happy despite the flight delays 🙂
Jae
July 30, 2010 at 8:46 amim pretty happy 🙂
Gigi
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amI think Happy and Content often get mixed up. Happy can be such a fleeting feeling…I can be happy to see someone, to find something, to have an experience. To be content, at least to me, is a more lingering emotion. To be content is to know I am where I need to be at this time in my life. When Happy (in the moment) and Content (with life) both happen at the same time, I think those are truly the sublime days. Since I am a teacher well into my summer break and relaxed and refreshed I can be Happy in the pure wonder of my day today and also be content with my life’s work and progress. So my answer is yes : ).
Ann
July 30, 2010 at 8:53 amI agree! Happiness and contentment aren’t exactly the same. I’m content with happiness catching up. I can’t wait for the two to be on par with each other 🙂
Lydia
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amYes. I am happy. I am happy because I am thankful for the many good things in my life – a happy baby, my husband, our health, a home, and abundent grace.
Amy
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amHappy, but mellow and introspective today – with a side of sea salt chocolate.
Olivia
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amI am very happy. The sun is shining, it’s Friday and I have a fun weekend planned, including continuing my half-marathon training, shopping with friends and beach time!
Mary Catherine
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amI have the day off from work today. I’m visiting my boyfriend in Myrtle Beach, SC. I’ve got my toes in the sand and a beautiful view in front of me. It doesn’t get much better than this! To answer your question, yes I am happy 🙂
Lynn
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amIt’s Friday and the sun is shining. I’m always happy with that combination!
Lauren
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amYes indeed! Started the day off right and did a 2 mile run with a friend. Stopped to get a farm fresh juice and have already had a productive day.
I LOVE your question! You are right…sometime you have to celebrate the little things.
Jasmine @ Eat Move Write
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amAww, great question!
I am very happy, but it took alot to get here. I had to lose 200 pounds, leave my first husband, and throw my clothes in my car and drive to California for me to get myself back on track with my life. It also helped that I eventually found and married the absolute love of my life and I’m working on my first book to boot. :p
Jill
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amYes! I have a 5 day old niece and one that will be 1 tomorrow. I have a morning off and a planned stroll through the Mission district in San Francisco. This afternoon, I am headed to Napa to work doing something I truly love. What’s not to be happy about?!
Meredith
July 30, 2010 at 8:48 amI AM happy today! I have my 5 kids running around with their 3 cousins while my brother finishes his last day of stem cell retrieval before transplant. We’ll get to have a great weekend together and the weather is supposed to be perfect! On top of that, I found it funny that I just happen to be having a yummy salad with feta on it on this feta Friday… quinoa, cucumber, dill, FETA, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and craisins. Yum!
Savannah
July 30, 2010 at 8:50 ami most certainly am. despite all the trials and difficulties that seem to be coming from all directions at this point in life, i am so grateful to be alive and so excited for everything that is yet to come. 🙂
[and i love feta. with a passion. ;)]
Ann
July 30, 2010 at 8:50 amI’m not so much happy as content, but I think that’s pretty darn good too 🙂
Tracy
July 30, 2010 at 8:50 amI am very happy because I have a lot to be happy about- great family, a good job, and a wonderful husband:)
Rhonda Pearson
July 30, 2010 at 8:50 amHappy as can be, went to the Toby Keith concert last night with my two boys and the hubby. God is good and Life is Good. Happy Friday Jenna!!!
Lisa @ My High-Carb Lifestyle
July 30, 2010 at 8:51 amRight now, at this moment, I am filled with happiness. Of course, that’s easy when it’s a sunny Friday morning and I’m doubling up on post bike-ride endorphins and iced coffee caffeine high!
Kelly L.
July 30, 2010 at 8:51 amI’m very happy! I have a wonderful husband, family and friends. Plus, I’m 6 months pregnant with my first baby. It’s a GIRL!!
jessica g
July 30, 2010 at 8:51 ami’m irritated and cranky because of work issues. work aside, i’m very happy today. its the last of the work and my fiance and i have final tasks to do before getting married in two weeks!
Lauren
July 30, 2010 at 8:52 amI’m VERY happy today. One reason is (not even kidding!) I made up a new recipe last night for cous cous salad using Athenos feta cheese! Whole wheat cous cous, Athenos, chick peas, fresh mint, scallions, and a dressing made of of lemon juice, vinegar and olive oil. Had it for lunch today so of course I’m happy — yum! Plus it’s Friday and I get to celebrate my wonderfuil fiancee’s birthday this weekend. Im thankful for so many things.
-Lauren from Tampa
Kaitlin
July 30, 2010 at 8:52 amGenerally happy, yes. Today has been a big pain at work though!
Katie
July 30, 2010 at 8:54 amyes. very happy.
Lauren L.
July 30, 2010 at 8:55 amI am happy! Today is my last day at my job I’ve held for the past two years, and even though I like my company, I am leaving to start law school in three weeks. I am SO excited for August and all of the glorious things to come, plus just living in the moment, today is going to be a great day.
Audrey
July 30, 2010 at 8:56 amYes! Even on the worst day I am so lucky to have my health, family, and friends. Plus–I love Feta Fridays! 🙂
Erin
July 30, 2010 at 8:56 amToday has actually been a really long day and it’s not even noon… but in general, I can’t complain. I’m safe, healthy, have a great lunch waiting in the fridge…
christine
July 30, 2010 at 8:58 ami am happy today. had a wonderful morning workout feeling strong and energized and ready for the weekend 🙂
Jackie
July 30, 2010 at 8:58 amWell, today started off poorly. Boyfriend lost his keys (so of course I had to help frantically look for them), had to stop for a truck for 10 minutes that was blocking traffic, stuck behind a student driver and was late to work. But I get to see my best friend this weekend and go boating for her 30th birthday! No complaints here!
MaryK.
July 30, 2010 at 8:58 amMehh…I am happy with everything except my job. Love the money, hate the work. Everything else is great: husband, 2 dogs (“the kids”), friends, family. 🙂
I would be happier if I won that lunchbag! hehe
Brooke
July 30, 2010 at 8:59 amHappy? Not really.
marie
July 30, 2010 at 8:59 amI choose to focus on the positives in my life and be happy.
Nike
July 30, 2010 at 8:59 amI’m choosing happiness and looking at all the things I have to be thankful for – an adoring husband, supportive friends, and a loving family. My kitties aren’t too bad either. 😉
Annie
July 30, 2010 at 8:59 amYes.
Raya @ Raya Runs
July 30, 2010 at 8:59 amIt’s funny, I was just thinking this morning that I am sooo happy right now. Top that off with a completely random and last minute trip to see Rihanna and Ke$ha tonight at the fairgrounds in Tampa and I’m one happy lady =)
Michelle @ Turning Over a New Leaf
July 30, 2010 at 9:01 amI’m happy: It’s Friday. The weekend is coming. I love my husband. We’re moving into a house soon. The husband got a part-time job after 7 months of searching (so finally we have enough to “budget” and our finances will make sense). I’m eating brisket and Blue Bell tomorrow, and Dublin Dr Pepper if I can find it in Lubbock.
I’m less than happy: I don’t enjoy my job. I have to work full time, thus never have time for anything I actually enjoy doing. My house is a wreck (again, with the time thing). The husband is out of town on business. After 7 months of searching the only job he could find was a student worker position on campus, which means he has to take more classes. So much for business degrees.
I’m content: God is God and He provides everything we need. We are drawing closer to our friends, stronger in our church, and are following God without any idea of what’s going to happen in the next year. And it’s okay. 🙂
Jennifer @ Cook, eat, play, repeat.
July 30, 2010 at 9:02 amI am super happy today! Off of work, updating my blog, and about to go to the park to enjoy some sun and duckies 🙂 Also can’t wait to read more of ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’ 🙂

Ashlee
July 30, 2010 at 9:03 amBefore or After I had my coffee!?! Actually, either way it’s not the greatest day. But I’m going to ‘Taste of Pewaukee, WI’ festival tonight, food, wine, the lake, and good friends & family! The day promises to turn around!
Katryn

Kara
July 30, 2010 at 9:06 amI’m so happy today…my beautiful and healthy 8 week old baby girl is asleep upstairs, I just worked out and showered, my hot husband is coming home early from work today, AND my mom is visiting for the weekend (which means nap times for me!)
Lindsay M

MSWR
July 30, 2010 at 9:06 amI am happy today, this moment, but this time last week the answer might have been different!
Ann
July 30, 2010 at 9:07 amI am happy today! After much consideration, I decided to leave my finance job after over five years. It was not making me happy, and it’s time to find something that does. Today is my last day!
Mar
July 30, 2010 at 9:07 amI am definitely happy! I am training for a 1/2 marathon and havn’t felt this good in a long time 🙂

Shannon
July 30, 2010 at 9:10 amI am happy! 🙂 However, life always has its trials and tribulations, ebbs and flows. Right now I’m just dealing with one of those, but hey, I’m on the up-swing of it, so I’m optimistic. Every day is better and better! Plus my mom is coming to visit this weekend – how CAN’T I be happy? 😉
lenniejane
July 30, 2010 at 9:10 amMy mother is visiting me while my husband is at another military post for 3 weeks, and I woke her up with the smell of chocolate chip pancakes. I am extremely happy today, because I can feel the love and support from my family!
Bliss
July 30, 2010 at 9:10 amAfter a few days of worrying, I got good news from my boss so I am happy. I am excited about future opportunities in my training/career, and I am really really looking forward to the weekend!
wendy
July 30, 2010 at 9:10 amI am happy today because I got up at 4:50am this morning and ran 6 miles! whooHOO! : ) I can eat & drink whatever I want for the rest of the day!

eatmovelove
July 30, 2010 at 9:13 amNo.
But I’m working on it.
Only I can change my own life and be in control.
And that’s how it should be.
Happy Friday.
…but wait, are YOU happy Jenna??
holly
July 30, 2010 at 9:13 amtoday is my last day of work at a job that I love, and despite moments of lurid moments of sadness, I am happy for what is to come.
Christie

Tasha

Lindsay
July 30, 2010 at 9:16 amI am very happy! Today marks my last day as a paralegal at a huge law firm in Boston. Thought I wanted to go to law school but have since decided to become a nurse! I start nursing school in September! I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time now. Will definitely be having a cocktail or two (or three, or four…) tonight!
Jen
July 30, 2010 at 9:16 amActually today I feel like I’m in limbo. I’m a grad student, and recent networking has left me feeling like my current and past jobs will not be sufficient to get the job I want after graduation. I’m getting a lot of advice, but sometimes it’s a little overwhelming! At least it’s Friday! Cheers to that!
Nina
July 30, 2010 at 9:16 amYes, I am happy today. It’s my day off of work (after working literally for 24 hours straight yesterday from 5pm on wednesday to 5pm on thursday), the weather is gorgeous, and I’m excited to relax and spend the evening with my husband.
Kelly
July 30, 2010 at 9:16 amToday I am very happy! I am going on my first family vacation with my husband and kids to the beach & I’m so excited for them to make fun memories like I had growing up.
Sarah for Real

Me-Linh (Sweet and Sweat)
July 30, 2010 at 9:17 amI AM HAPPY TODAY!! People need to ask this more often.
I’m going home and visiting my parents, I get to see my dogs, and I get to pick fruit from our plum tree and devour them like a mad woman.
I’m so happy I get to see my 2 beagles though 🙂
Robyn @ New Every Morning
July 30, 2010 at 9:18 amIs this open to US participants only?
jenna

jen
July 30, 2010 at 9:18 amI’ve very happy today, July 30th. Yesterday I turned 29 and today I took the day off from work to finish up my kitchen remodel! Have a new kitchen makes me so happy I can’t explain it!!!
Bianca
July 30, 2010 at 9:18 amYes, I am happy, but sometimes I feel like I have to keep reminding myself that I am happy. I just graduated college and am kind of in limbo, and I find myself looking forward to future instead of really enjoying my life right now.
Jessica
July 30, 2010 at 9:19 amMost of the time! But I make it a point to try and always be content.
erika
July 30, 2010 at 9:19 amI am happy! Life has been great to me this year!

Kelsey
July 30, 2010 at 9:19 amToday, yes, I’m happy! I just had my last modern dance class for the summer, and though I have work for the rest of the day, I have so much to look forward to! That’s what keeps me going. Also, sunshine. 🙂
Maria
July 30, 2010 at 9:20 amI am happy because God always provides and He is so faithful 🙂
diana@mymarblerye
July 30, 2010 at 9:20 amHappiness changes day to day for me but in this moment I can’t complain with what God has given me!

Zoe
July 30, 2010 at 9:20 amI am happy right now. I finished my summer job 1 hour ago and get to see my family and oldest friend in 5 hours. My life looks good.
Holly
July 30, 2010 at 9:20 amI am very happy today! It is Friday & I am spending the weekend with my family.
Katharine
July 30, 2010 at 9:21 amI am happy…just got back from Paris…wishing I was still there!
Juliann
July 30, 2010 at 9:21 amDriving home from my morning run, I thought about how fortunate I am to be able to live the life I have. So yes, I am definitely happy.
Michelle @ Turning Over a New Leaf
July 30, 2010 at 9:21 amActually, I look at it this way. There is happiness and there is joy.
Am I “happy” at this particular moment in time? No, not really. I’m at work. The husband is out of town. My house is a wreck. It’s all circumstantial.
But do I have joy? Yes. Joy surpasses circumstance. Joy is related to peace, and despite the economic struggles and other circumstantial stress, there is a sense of peace in my life that only come from God. I know that I have everything I need, and I am blessed to have as much as I do, even considering the fact that I qualify for government assistance. Happiness is temporary, but joy is peace and confidence beyond what this world can do to me. [Psalm 27:1-3, Psalm 56:3-4, Philippians 4:11-13, James 1:2-4, Jeremiah 29:11, Psalm 118:24, Psalm 16:8-11]. 🙂
Linds
July 30, 2010 at 9:21 amI am happy today! Happiness is always a choice.
jackie
July 30, 2010 at 9:22 amI am SOOOO happy! I am moving to California tomorrow and tomorrow is my little brother’s birthday!!!

Caitlin
July 30, 2010 at 9:23 amI’m genuinely happy today 🙂 After getting up early and spending time before work swimming outdoors, I already feel like I seized the day and it’s only noon!
Laura
July 30, 2010 at 9:23 amI am extra HAPPY today! Amazing boyfriend, amazing work environment, amazing life and feeling good! So good in fact that I’m going to dance in my cubicle!!
Callina
July 30, 2010 at 9:23 amThere are things that I’m very happy about, but there are also things today that I’m unhappy about. Got some bad news today but it’s good to have this reminder that there are still lots of things I can put on my “happy” list.
Alison
July 30, 2010 at 9:23 amHow relevant. I’ve done a lot of soul searching this week, but today I am honestly not that happy. I have to have a difficult conversation with my boyfriend today about our future, and it’s making me sad for numerous reasons. All that said, I’m a typically happy person, but sometimes having these rough days really helps me appreciate the happiness I’m blessed with. Tomorrow’s a new day!
Becca H
July 30, 2010 at 9:24 amYES!!! I am very happy today!!! I am off for three weeks between summer and fall classes and am going home to Florida!!
Paula C
July 30, 2010 at 9:24 amI am happy…. I just moved to Seattle last week to be with my bf, just accepted a job offer and am now looking for apartments.
Christie
July 30, 2010 at 9:25 amI am quite happy today. It’s Friday and I’m about to bake some chocolate chip cookies 🙂
Renee
July 30, 2010 at 9:25 amVery, very happy. The kind of happiness that comes from real contentment with my life. I’m getting married in 8 months to the best man to walk the earth (my opinion:)), I’m working to achieve my personal and professional goals, and I’m running a half marathon on Sunday! Life is good.
(And that lunchbox is really cute!)
Tiffany
July 30, 2010 at 9:25 amIt’s Friday, the end of the month, and pay day, how can one not be happy?!? Happy Friday from Texas!
Tara
July 30, 2010 at 9:26 amOh yes! Life is great. I have 2 great jobs that I love, amazing family and friends, and a vacation to look forward to 🙂
Olivia
July 30, 2010 at 9:26 amYes, I am happy. Stressed, but happy.
HeatherMM
July 30, 2010 at 9:27 amOn a scale of 1 – 10, with 10 being happy, I would say I am a 7.5. I am blessed with a wonderful family and the cutest puppy in the world. Everyone is healthy and I have a good job. Plus, it is FRIDAY!!!
Sara Ames
July 30, 2010 at 9:27 amOh how I wish I could claim happiness today. But I cannot. I’m in the middle of fighting for my unemployment and today is just not a happy day for me. Its a tough day full of self doubt and anxiety.
I plan to cheer myself with a little knitting, a deserved work out, and watching middle schoolers perform Grease the musical tonight.
Thank you for your blog, I really enjoy the daily read 🙂

Katie
July 30, 2010 at 9:28 amI guess I will be one of the few with a mixed answer.
I have many things to be happy about: Overall I have a great life, wonderful family and good friends. My husband and I are moving in about 6 weeks back East to a place that I am already in love with and out a place that I have hated. We have an amazing trip to Europe planned in about two months for our wedding anniversary.
But today, I am emotionally spent and not happy. We have been trying to have a baby since the start of the year, and yesterday was yet another doctor’s appointment with less than stellar news and a line that I’m already tired of hearing – “I’m sorry the medication didn’t work this month…….”. I cried for most of last night.
I constantly have to remind myself that God’s timing is always perfect.
MyThy as in "Mighty"
July 30, 2010 at 9:28 amI am happy today because I took a huge leap and apologized to DF (I have a hard time apologizing and saying sorry). He’s the most patient and level-headed man. He know’s I’m sorry even when I can’t blurt those two simple words. I’m happy to be in love with him and him and love w/ me.
And then we went for a 4 mile run! =)
Sarah T
July 30, 2010 at 9:28 amYes! Today is a happy Friday, most likely caused by the crazy busy Thursday in the office.
Anya @ Fitness & Sunshine
July 30, 2010 at 9:28 amI’m feeling pretty good today and am looking forward to what’s comin’ for the rest of my day! 🙂
Erin
July 30, 2010 at 9:28 amI just took the bar exam a couple of days ago, so today I am very, VERY happy to have put that particular chapter of my life behind me.
Alicia at Poise in Parma
July 30, 2010 at 9:29 amA couple days ago, I couldn’t have answered this question with a “yes”. But today, I am inspired, motivated and getting stuff done. It’s a great day to be alive!
Christine
July 30, 2010 at 9:30 amI’m happy today but a bittersweet kind of happy because I just had to drop my parents off at the airport 🙁 I’m happy they’re getting a vacation and seeing their grandson, though!
Jin
July 30, 2010 at 9:30 amYes I am happy. Happy to have a healthy body, happy to have a loving family and extremely happy to start a new chapter in my life (university)!
Jennifer

Katy(The Balanced Foodie)
July 30, 2010 at 9:31 amRight now, in this moment, I am happy! I started my morning off with an amazing power yoga session and am leaving town tomorrow with my husband to meet up with family in North Carolina for a mini-vacay! Life is good. 🙂
Jo
July 30, 2010 at 9:31 amYes, I am extremely happy because I’m soon going to quit my job and go back to grad school. I’m ready to pursue my dream!
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 9:32 amLove this question. I am happy today. And taking a minute to think about the question reminded me what’s important in life!
Sarah D.

Chaley
July 30, 2010 at 9:39 amVery recently I learned that only *I* am responsible for my happiness. And it is a choice that I make daily. Yes, I am extremely happy!
Angharad
July 30, 2010 at 9:40 amI’m happy today! It’s Friday, it’s lunchtime (I’m currently eating a feta and bean salad!) and this weekend is going to be amazingly good. Lots to be happy about!

July 30, 2010 at 9:41 amHmmm…. Today I’m a little stressed because I have a lot of work to finish up before I leave on vacation. But I’m HAPPY because I get to go on VACATION!!! 🙂
Jen
July 30, 2010 at 9:41 amYes I am – I just booked a Friday lunchtime mani/pedi – what could be better than that 🙂
Ana
July 30, 2010 at 9:42 amHappy for sure!
Michele
July 30, 2010 at 9:42 amYes, I’m happy today. I’m healthy, employed, have family and friends, and saw a GORGEOUS sunrise this morning when I came to work early.
JW
July 30, 2010 at 9:42 amI guess I am one of the minority. Honestly I am NOT happy today.
Amanda
July 30, 2010 at 9:42 amSOOOO very happy for Friday!! Weekend is soo close!!
Katherine
July 30, 2010 at 9:43 amI am happy today because I got to sleep in, then washed my hair while listening to the Wicked soundtrack, put on a pretty dress, had yummy zucchini with cracked pepper (and a sneaky slice of leftover homemade pizza) for lunch and I’m settling in to do some study on editing and publishing this afternoon.
Today is a good day.
Tracy
July 30, 2010 at 9:44 amYes, today I am happy. I woke up early and made it to the gym for 5:15 class. My newborn baby is sleeping!!!! Finally. And I ate the most delicious trail mix from Fresh and Easy. Yum! Are you happy today Jenna?? 🙂
Rachel
July 30, 2010 at 9:45 amI am truly happy. I have a very blessed life. I know that I am not thankful enough for my wonderful husband, family, and friends.
hilary
July 30, 2010 at 9:46 amit is f-r-i-d-a-y….(you can count that as a ‘yes’) 🙂
Rachel
July 30, 2010 at 9:46 amI am truly happy. I have been blessed with a wonderful husband, family, and friends.
Keva
July 30, 2010 at 9:46 amyes! A good friend from high school is here to visit for my birthday, what could be better?
Ashley
July 30, 2010 at 9:47 amI am very happy today =D I’m happy because it’s Friday, I just got good news about getting accepted into nursing school (starts in 2 weeks!!), and I’m learning how to quilt tonight!
Sara
July 30, 2010 at 9:48 amI am happy. I’m going on an unexpected weekend away with my very-soon-to-be husband and get to see a lot of loved ones!
Maribeth
July 30, 2010 at 9:48 amToday, I am happy. Looking forward to a relaxing weekend with family. I’d be happy to win the feta, too–ha! 🙂
Allison
July 30, 2010 at 9:48 amYES! I can confidently say I’m happy today! I FINALLY got a job and I’m going to visit my family this weekend and hold my new nephew!
Nora@LiveLifeEatRight
July 30, 2010 at 9:49 amFridays always make me happy 🙂
Anna
July 30, 2010 at 9:50 amI am a mixture of happy and sad today. I work in healthcare and take great joy in my job: meeting new people everyday and taking care of people the way that I want myself and my loved ones to be cared for. Today a patient is starting to lose a battle with a horrible disease and it is very sobering to see how it affects his loved ones. It truly makes you take a step back, look at the bigger picture and be thankful for everything you are blessed with.
Corinne
July 30, 2010 at 9:50 amYes today I am. Tomorrow..well we shall see!!
Rhea (Greek Feaster)
July 30, 2010 at 9:51 amYes. My boss just let us out early!
Kate
July 30, 2010 at 9:51 amI am happy! Right now I’m eating breakfast tacos…that might have something to do with it 🙂
Kate
July 30, 2010 at 9:52 amyes i’m happy! It’s raining here but that doesn’t mean it wont be great day!! 🙂
Hillary
July 30, 2010 at 9:52 amToday I am happy. I got to sleep in . I am going to the libary to get new books. Plus my boyfriend gets off work early so we will probably go to happy hour! Yay! Plus I get to read your blog which almost always makes me smile.
Katie
July 30, 2010 at 9:53 amI am surprised to see that nearly everyone wrote happy, maybe even everyone (?!)
I am not happy today, I am miserable and lonely and sad. I just need to get through today to tomorrow.
I do see myself being happy in the future, probably 9 months from now. Every day is not as bad as today, but today the sadness is overwhelming me. Just bein’ honest.
Cates
July 30, 2010 at 9:58 amhave hope and thanks for being honest. happiness is a work in progress for some of us, but that’s ok.
Natalie
July 30, 2010 at 9:53 amI would say so. I’m blessed with a wonderful daughter, an amazing husband and a good job. And I just ate a banana with almond butter so my tummy is full (satiated sometimes = happy).
What could be better besides life with that lunchbox? 🙂
Cates
July 30, 2010 at 9:54 ameasy answer–nope! i am blessed in life and i acknowledge that every day, but i’m not truly happy with myself right now–it’s a work in progress, but i have hope i’ll get there!
Leslie Hanley
July 30, 2010 at 9:56 amNot today. I generally am but I am in a SUPER funk right now.
Jill mason
July 30, 2010 at 9:57 amToday is a total off day for me, so nope not so happy! Maybe I need food, good food always seems to make me feel better 😉
Mary @ What's Cookin' with Mary
July 30, 2010 at 9:58 amI am happy today 😀 It’s Friday and Brian will hopefully be able to take the afternoon off!! Double happiness.
Samantha
July 30, 2010 at 9:58 amvery happy! sun is shining, so am i 🙂
Emiyl
July 30, 2010 at 9:58 amYes! I’m sitting on the 19th floor of 101 Federal Street on my lunch break. I walked downstairs to grab something to eat…and for the first time i was CRAVING something nutrious—soup, salad, you name it. It’s been years of work to switch my mindset from fried food to healthy veggies, but I think I’m finally making some great progress.
Julie @SavvyEats
July 30, 2010 at 9:59 amYES. I was just telling my husband that I am especially happy today. For no good reason. But those are the best days, aren’t they?
stephanie
July 30, 2010 at 9:59 amyes I am!
Angie
July 30, 2010 at 9:59 amI’m so happy! It’s Friday and I get to go camping tomorrow! Let the weekend begin!
Nadia Jaber
July 30, 2010 at 10:00 amOverall, today… yes. While things could be better, they could also be worse. I’m a “half-full” kinda girl!
Gennin
July 30, 2010 at 10:01 amYes!! I am happy and thankful that I can actually “feel” it.
Dorothy
July 30, 2010 at 10:02 amI’m happy it’s Friday!
Amy

Colleen
July 30, 2010 at 10:03 amI’m happy! I recently started a new job and I bought my first house with my wonderful husband. Plus, my parents are coming to visit for the weekend!
Amy @ Amy Starts to Run
July 30, 2010 at 10:03 amOh man. I guess, perhaps? I’m a little stressed over work and other things, so it definitely could be better.
Rachel
July 30, 2010 at 10:05 amI’ve actually been a little sad these past couple days. Away from home, missing friends and family, and worried about the future. But then I read all of these comments about things to be happy about, and now I’m smiling. Love your blog, Jenna. And love feta, honestly, it’s a problem.
The Wife of a Dairyman
July 30, 2010 at 10:07 amRight at the moment, I’m a bit nervous, but I’ll be happy in about an hour or so.
Amanda (modernation)
July 30, 2010 at 10:07 amYes, today I am happy! The sun is shinning, my legs are tired from a nice 5 mile run, and I am loved!
Lauren R
July 30, 2010 at 10:08 amYes I am :)!
Jennifer
July 30, 2010 at 10:09 amYes I am. The sun is out and it is Friday!
Kate
July 30, 2010 at 10:09 amThis is a seriously poignant question today!
For the past almost 6 months, I have been going through the hardest time of my life. I got married last September, and we took our honeymoon a little belated in February. Five days after we returned from our trip, my husband of of just over 5 months up and left. I found out in the following weeks that he never wanted to get married (why would you date for ten years and then ask I say?) and he was having an affair; one he started 3 weeks before the wedding with a woman he met at his bachelor party. So, for most of the last 6 months, I have been going through a sticky divorce and have not been too happy.
But (!), I have to say that today, I am very happy. I will be divorced in less than a month. Over the last week, I have chosen to celebrate the fact that he is no longer around, rather than be sad about it. In the past two months, I have started running and will be running my first half on Aug 14th. And I have started to make new friends, and am going out with one of them tonight to meet even more new friends. As much as the situation stinks, I am starting new life and am happy to be given the opportunity to do!
Jes
July 30, 2010 at 10:09 amNo and Yes… No because I am more nervous than happy, but happy is a close second on the emotional scale right now… I have my first 5K tomorrow, and am freakin out a little bit! Not gonna lie! It’s the unknown that makes me nervous, but I am happy because I have my first 5K tomorrow!!! Woo Hoo!
Danika
July 30, 2010 at 10:12 amI am happy on endorphines today! Man did my legs have a lot to say, while I couldnt express this stressful week any other way !!
VCK
July 30, 2010 at 10:12 amToday I am happier than I have been all week. I think early-morning yoga def helped.
Jessica
July 30, 2010 at 10:16 amI am generally a happy person – I try to look @ things as the glass half full! And today…I am definitely happy! it is a gorgeous Friday!
Mary @ ferventfoodie
July 30, 2010 at 10:18 amI am happy today because it is FRIDAY and I have nothing planned for the evening but pizza and R&R 😀
April
July 30, 2010 at 10:18 amHappy to be free of a great burden. Happy to have a wonderful last day of work. Happy to get a move on to the next chapter of my life soon.
Lindsay
July 30, 2010 at 10:19 amHappy? Yes. Every single minute of every single day? Of course not. Happiness to me, though, is looking at the bigger picture of life. I have a loving family, friends, and boyfriend that always support me no matter what.
laura
July 30, 2010 at 10:19 amhonestly? I havent really been happy since I left chicago last weekend. I want to live there noow!
Dana
July 30, 2010 at 10:19 amI am happy for my health, friends, and loving family who are always there for me. Everything else falls into place as it should 🙂
Sara
July 30, 2010 at 10:20 amyes! i finally managed to get over 6-7 hours of sleep and i feel amazing 🙂
Kellie
July 30, 2010 at 10:23 amI am happy that I went to the gym even though I was tired and I feel great now.
Dana
July 30, 2010 at 10:23 amI am happy for my health, friends, and loving family who are always there for me. Everything else falls into place as it should 🙂
Jen
July 30, 2010 at 10:24 amYes. My husband found a job, I just finished my dissertation research, I’m 38 weeks pregnant with my first child, and we have a day off together. Life is good. Unpredictable– but good!
Amber K
July 30, 2010 at 10:25 amHonestly, no. Not yet. I have hopes and dreams that just aren’t coming to me yet. I do take time each day to appreciate what I already have. But if I were completely honest with myself and others I would describe myself as “happy.”
Erin
July 30, 2010 at 10:25 amI am so happy today! It’s a beautiful, sunny Friday, and tonight is DATE NIGHT! 🙂
Joyce
July 30, 2010 at 10:25 amI am happy Playing guitar and eating apple chips.
Rejoice =)
Charlotte
July 30, 2010 at 10:26 amI am a little of both. My life seems to be finally getting back on the right track after fighting an injury that made me quit my job and sit on the couch for the last 9 months. I am starting to walk again and feel almost back to normal. However I have been living long distance from my husband for most of the year so far and that takes its toll. He has been there through this tough year, but it is hard being apart when I am finally back to myself. So I am getting happy again, but some days it hits me that I would do anything to be with him. So long story short, today has been tough…
nicole kramarczyk
July 30, 2010 at 10:27 amYES! =D
I slept in way too late, missed my workout for the first time in years, and now I’m rushing around to get everything done for the day!
This is one of those days where playing with my son and dog puts a smile on my face! And knowing it’s the weekend makes me really happy! Please pick me!!!! I have never won anything in my entire life and I LOVE feta!!!
Shelby
July 30, 2010 at 10:27 amSo very happy today. Thank you for asking 🙂 And how are YOU today?
MMiller
July 30, 2010 at 10:28 amDefinitely happy! Happy to have great friends and family and super happy that a girlfriend is coming to see me for a few days! Happy to be in remission! Happy to have 2 wonderful, strong, loving and giving children who are now ADULTS?! And happy to have the most wonderful parents and siblings! Happy to be alive!
Sarah Q
July 30, 2010 at 10:28 amI make an effort to be happy each day. Some days I am successful, some not.
Max
July 30, 2010 at 10:29 amI am very happy (in general, but also) today. I am 36 weeks pregnant and have had terrible insomnia. This morning, my husband took our toddler son to the pool, and I fell asleep on the couch for three and a half hours. It ruled. 🙂
We love feta!
Maya
July 30, 2010 at 10:32 amWell, my cheeks are currently swollen because my wisdom teeth were removed this morning, but the surgery went surprisingly alright. So I’m happy about that!
Sara N
July 30, 2010 at 10:34 amSo blissfully happy today! Blue skies and our offer on a house was just accepted.
Michel
July 30, 2010 at 10:35 amhappy? yes.
Amy

Alexandra Chappell
July 30, 2010 at 10:37 amI am SO happy today! I woke up next to my husband, ate a delicious breakfast, and went to spin class. Life is wonderful.
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 10:39 amOf course I’m happy, it’s Friday!
Kathryn
July 30, 2010 at 10:40 amOverall I’m happy although I’d really like to be done with grad school…I think the happiness would shoot up when I can be doing the career I love and not all the other grad school stuff that comes along with it lol
Missy
July 30, 2010 at 10:41 amHappy and Blessed!
emily
July 30, 2010 at 10:44 amI had a good run, I got lunch with a friend, and I’m heading to the airport to pick up my parents – YES!
carolyn

Bunji
July 30, 2010 at 10:48 amHow can I not be happy? It is Friday, the hubby is going out to play cards, one child going out for the night and the other is will hang with me. Not to bad. Plus I won money in Atlantic City yesterday!!!!
Molly Nelson
July 30, 2010 at 10:48 amI am so happy!! I love reading your blog—thanks for being there everyday!! I hardly ever miss 😉
Koko
July 30, 2010 at 10:49 amThis summer is the happiest I have been in a long time. I’m excited to say that because I made some changes in my life that were difficult, but necessary, and I truly feel like I am in the right place right now.
Karla
July 30, 2010 at 10:50 amI am VERY happy! I just got engaged and my fiance (he he!) and I are leaving for a vacation together tomorrow morning!
Cate
July 30, 2010 at 10:52 amI am happy. I have a wonderful husband and am satisfied with where we are in life. I used to always thinks about all the little tweaks that could be made, but it’s focusing on those kinds of thoughts that makes me feel like I am not completely happy, when really, I am. The older I get, the easier it is to be content.
Emily G.
July 30, 2010 at 10:53 amYes, I’m happy! I’d be even happier if I was able to snag that cute little lunch bag though! 😉
Seriously! It’s Friday..what’s not to be happy about??
Elizabeth
July 30, 2010 at 10:57 amI am very happy! My youngest brother came through surgery okay. I’m home with my family. It’s Friday. The weather is beautiful. I did a 30-minute cycling workout at lunch. Today rules! 🙂
Abbey
July 30, 2010 at 10:58 amHappiness today is certain. I am trying to live one day at a time while still keeping my goals straight. It can be tough sometimes but today is good. Lunch with a wonderful friend and her baby girl will surely make it even better soon!
Thanks!
Gina G
July 30, 2010 at 10:59 amI would say I am happy, I have come a long way. I’ve worked hard at letting go and taking control of my happiness. I will be honest and say though i am going to be really sad when my friends leave for college in less than a month (i have to go to a community college, but im still very grateful)
Kristen
July 30, 2010 at 10:59 amFor the most part I am very happy! The mornings that I wake up dreading I just take a deep breath and remember all the good things I have in my life!
Ilene
July 30, 2010 at 11:00 amI can honestly say yes, I am happy. 🙂
Ilene
July 30, 2010 at 11:01 amYes, I honestly am happy 🙂
Lacey
July 30, 2010 at 11:03 amToday I can definitely say I’m happy… b/c it’s Friday, my husband just flew back into town and I’m at a job I love where one of our patients brought us cookies this morning!
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 11:10 amI am completely blissed out right now! My new tea (Numi Golden Chai) is delicious, the weather is finally cool enough for me to go for a run without dying (it’s 85°F instead of 96°F), my kitty is snuggled up next to me, and my family and friends are healthy.
Kelli
July 30, 2010 at 11:10 amI am totally, 100% happy. I think being happy is a decision. Sure, I’m exhausted, I’m busy, I’m stressed…but I’m choosing, everyday, every minute, to be happy and positive. Why live life any other way? 🙂
Michele
July 30, 2010 at 11:11 amI consider myself to be a happy person. I have enough money, a roof over my head, a stable relationship and an adorable puppy.
Sami
July 30, 2010 at 11:14 amHappiness is all about attitude! 🙂 Yayy for Athenos feta.
Marilyn
July 30, 2010 at 11:14 amI’m very happy, but anxious! I’m going on my honeymoon tomorrow and have to meet my husband at an airport in Germany. I hope I find him in the right spot! :-O
Molly
July 30, 2010 at 11:14 amDefinitely happy. Learning to live in the moment and not fixate on the past or future.
Dawn
July 30, 2010 at 11:15 amUsually, yes. Today, no. I’ve had a headache and upset stomach since yesterday. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
Sarah
July 30, 2010 at 11:19 amI am very happy today; I’ve got two precious little boys and a wonderful husband who make me smile every day.
Jenny
July 30, 2010 at 11:20 amGood old Abe Lincoln once said “Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be”. I choose happiness.
Stefanie B.
July 30, 2010 at 11:20 amI am happy! My sister’s bridal shower is tomorrow and I am so excited for her!!
Elizabeth
July 30, 2010 at 11:21 amOf course I am happy!! I woke up today feeling great….PLUS IT IS FRIDAY!!!!! Live it up everyday!!
Chelsea
July 30, 2010 at 11:22 amYes! I am definitely happy today. I live in NYC and as cheesy at it sounds, everyday when I am walking home from work, I look around me and remind myself how lucky I am to be healthy, young, and living in this wonderful city. Although, if I’ve learned anything in my life, no matter where you live or what you do, as long as you are truly, deeply, happy with yourself as a person, bad days will be far and few between.
Jamie
July 30, 2010 at 11:22 amI’m happppppyyyyyy!! Whoo hoo!!
Katie Heddleston
July 30, 2010 at 11:23 amYES! I am totally happy today! I had an amazing run and my mom is coming to visit John and I today for the whole weekend!! So excitedd 🙂

MaryZ
July 30, 2010 at 11:32 amYes…very happy! I have a great life!
Susan
July 30, 2010 at 11:33 amYES! Not just today, but everyday. Thanks for this question, it is something I do not always think about everyday, but it should be. It is good to remember everything that we have to be happy about, because it gets to easy sometimes to get caught up in the daily grind and forget what we each have to be happy about!
And, it being Friday does not hurt the hapinness factor either today!
Anne
July 30, 2010 at 11:34 amWith God in my life, how can I not be happy? 🙂
Stacey
July 30, 2010 at 11:34 amIt’s Friday, Pizza is on the menu for lunch, and I get to meet my friend’s 2 week old baby today… I am most definitely happy
Lauren @ 40Apples

Amanda

Rebecca
July 30, 2010 at 12:10 pmDefinitely, I took off from work, ran five miles, got a pedicure have a date planned with my husband tonight, and am currently drinking pinot noir at 2pm, I am very happy indeed!
Julie
July 30, 2010 at 12:11 pmIt’s the Friday before a long weekend- of course I am happy!
Jerilynne
July 30, 2010 at 12:12 pmIf we’re being honest…. let’s just say it will be a miracle if I make it through today without killing someone. It’s been one of THOSE days!
elaine
July 30, 2010 at 12:13 pmI definitely am happy! Really just being able to walk around and breathe the air is a recipe for happiness in my book!

July 30, 2010 at 12:15 pmI am VERY happy today! Decided to go visit my bff in Chicago in September – my favorite city AND one of my fave people, doesn’t get better that that.
I also go to talk to my sister on gchat, which is always a good thing.
AND it’s Friday!
Elisa
July 30, 2010 at 12:17 pmI am happy today because I ran 4 miles…. never thought I would say that! Also, my nephew, who is 2, said his last name for me and my heart nearly melted it was so cute!
valen

Teisha
July 30, 2010 at 12:25 pmAbsolutely Happy! Started the day with a little cinnamon bun creamer in my coffee and my daughter is having her best buddy from dance over for a sleep over and we are headed to play Putt Putt ! It’s the simple things 🙂

Gretchen
July 30, 2010 at 12:27 pm“Am I happy”? Overall, yes…on any given day, of course!
At the moment…no not at all….My super cute new shoes that fit perfectly this morning and made me so happy this Friday morning are making me want to cry right this moment…I don’t think I can possibly take another step in them….I have horrible blisters on my heels…..I’m not happy when my feet are hurting 🙁
stephanie@Avocado Nation
July 30, 2010 at 12:28 pmI am so happy. I just started a blog. I quit my crazy job and I am living with my boyfriend next to the beach. Life is so good right now.
Sadye
July 30, 2010 at 12:28 pmI’m happy…I have the cutest 10 month old baby in the world!
XTINA
July 30, 2010 at 12:31 pmraindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles, and warm wool and mittens, brown paper packages tied up with strings, these are a few of my favorite things!
Kelley
July 30, 2010 at 12:33 pmMost definitely! I’m losing weight on a fantastic diet and I hit my goal weight as of this morning. I’m working on my husband to take me new clothes shopping because he’s so proud of me (or should be anyway).
Cammy@ClassroomConfessions
July 30, 2010 at 12:34 pmI am getting there one day at a time!
laura
July 30, 2010 at 12:34 pmRight now, I’m VERY happy…I just finished my MCAT this morning (fingers crossed I don’t have to take a 3rd time) 🙂 Overall, I have my ups and downs but life is good and I can’t complain too much!
Stephanie
July 30, 2010 at 12:34 pmYes! I just worked through a really tough problem at work that I’ve been stuck on for a while. I feel a real sense of accomplishment today!
Alicia
July 30, 2010 at 12:36 pmMost of the time. I am working through some things in my life and if I can just get them taken care of then I can say yes–100%.
espie
July 30, 2010 at 12:37 pmYes, I’m happy today… I’m writing this while sitting on a bus. I’m traveling 10 hours (!!) To visit my friends in DC. It’s been 8 months since we ended our Peace Corps service and seen each other!
Katie
July 30, 2010 at 12:42 pmTrying to get there. I was happy when I walked out the door but now I am fighting grumpiness (from stress). I need to focus on the good things today: sun, blue sky, farmers market.
KG
July 30, 2010 at 12:42 pmWow, great question! And I must say that yes, I am happy! After a lot of soul searching this summer, I have stopped racing towards the “next thing” or dwelling in memories of what happened years ago. Instead I am learning how to enjoy what is happening at the present moment!

July 30, 2010 at 12:42 pmI am soooo happy right now because I just watched a movie and made tons and tons of hair flowers from my favorite fabrics. Ahhhhhhh. 🙂 I have so many other things I should be doing… But I’m not! haha
Tulin
July 30, 2010 at 12:43 pmYep, today my professor gave me a great compliment – it was a great start to a Friday!
amyt
July 30, 2010 at 12:46 pmYEPPERS….see my happy face 🙂
rebecca
July 30, 2010 at 12:46 pmhappy is a stretch, but all things relative…as my step sister used to say, i’m medium.
Lana
July 30, 2010 at 12:47 pmHow ironic that you would ask that…this morning I read angela’s post and was inspired to try smiling while meditating!! I felt totally silly…but as I sat there smililing I realized that I am finally at a point that where I am truely happy in my life. I’m happy today because I’m in a location I love, have the most wonderful, supportive friends and family, great opportunities in my near future and no longer have negative thoughts. I am finally happy.
p.s. It really helped to sit for 5 minutes just smiling on my yoga matt with the lights and music/tv turned off. You should try it!
kyla
July 30, 2010 at 12:50 pmI’m happy that I have a loving family, wonderful friends, and happy for my health which has allowed me to train for an upcoming marathon.
Jen
July 30, 2010 at 12:53 pmToday I can say I am happy. My husband and I are currently living apart for his job (I will be moving soon) and he is coming back today for the weekend…can’t wait to see him!
Katelynn
July 30, 2010 at 12:54 pmYes, I am happy! I just got back from a great day of cooking class. And who isn’t happy on Fridays anyway??:)
Laura T.
July 30, 2010 at 1:01 pmdespite the fact that im looking for a job and a cheap apt (and cant seem to find anything)…im happy 🙂
Ilana
July 30, 2010 at 1:11 pmI am quite happy at the moment because I am full of my mom’s vegetarian chili =)
Courtney
July 30, 2010 at 1:11 pmI am especially happy today because i have the day off and its sunny out! Also happy to be starting a new job in a week and a half!
Lindsay
July 30, 2010 at 1:14 pmIf I look at my life from day to day, I’d have to say some days I am happy, some days I am not. But if I look at the grand scheme of things and remember that I have a loving and supportive family, boyfriend, friends, and that Jesus Christ is always on my side, then I realize I am more than just happy….I am blessed!
Courtney (Delightful Devours)
July 30, 2010 at 1:16 pmYes, I am VERY happy today! Started the morning off right with an early (6:00 AM! Yikes) yoga class which was amazingly challenging. After yoga I was treated to an iced coffee and purple oats.
What could be better?!
Lori
July 30, 2010 at 1:19 pmYou know what, at this very moment, I’m not that happy. After 5 pm I will be though! 😉
Good question. I’m happy after reading this post and reflecting on whether I am or am not happy. So yeah, now I’m happy. Thanks. 🙂
Andrea
July 30, 2010 at 1:19 pmI am SO SO happy today. My dog is snoring after a long walk, I’ve had a great day and it’s Friday. Plus, I realized once again how blessed I am to have the parents I have. So yes, definitely happy!
Shane
July 30, 2010 at 1:19 pmA little bit of both! Loving the fact that it’s Friday, I get to see me puppy today, and about to finish up a work project, but not so happy about my man leaving for the weekend, bummer! All in all, it’s a good day! I think a little bit of time in the kitchen will soothe my soul! Hehe! 🙂
simplegal19
July 30, 2010 at 1:25 pmI am happy but even more so I am joyful. I think joy is where you find it, and you make your own joy. You have to seek it out and change your attitude and find joy in everything you are doing. For example- i hate scrubbing the toilet, and i can either scrub the toilet and pout, or i can scrub the toilet and think about how i am serving my family and blessing them, and that brings me joy.
Jessica
July 30, 2010 at 1:28 pmEven though I just turned 26 yesterday (officially on the downhill to 30… haha) YES! 🙂 Life is good.
Melanie
July 30, 2010 at 1:31 pmAm I happy? Tough question. I think life is starting to go in a good direction, but sometimes that means saying goodbye to people that you love. So, I’m at a transition point, where I’m cautiously happy and simultaneously terrified. Does that make sense?
Lisa
July 30, 2010 at 1:31 pmYes, I am so happy, especially since it is friday and I get to spend the weekend with my wonderful boyfirend. Fridays are the best days of the week. Have a great weekend!
ash
July 30, 2010 at 1:31 pmyes- things are looking up -I am getting ready to move hopefully for a job I love and leave a toxic job 🙂 and environment.
Natalie
July 30, 2010 at 1:44 pmAlthough there are some hard changes coming up in the near future, I am trying to enjoy each day and “live in the moment” as much as possible so yep, I can say that today, July 30, I am very happy.
Ashley
July 30, 2010 at 1:46 pmIt is 4:47pm on a Friday. Happy doesn’t even BEGIN to describe how I feel :-).
Feta makes me happy too.
Brittney
July 30, 2010 at 1:46 pmI am happy now, but I will be ‘happy x 100’ when 5:00 rolls around!
Michelle
July 30, 2010 at 1:46 pmI’m happy because I’ve decided to go back to school and persue a degree in social work. I’ll be even happier when I’m doing something I love everyday!
Linda
July 30, 2010 at 1:51 pmI’m moderately happy; I’ve been offered a job, but it’s not something I ever thought I’d be doing, and it doesn’t pay very well, but it does have benefits….and it’s A JOB!
Kelly
July 30, 2010 at 1:51 pmYes, very happy.
Megan
July 30, 2010 at 1:58 pmI am happy, and finally realizing it’s the simple things that make me happiest!
Tracy
July 30, 2010 at 2:02 pmYes, I believe so!!! I AM happy today!! Although, a little apprehensive. Training for a marathon, and going to go for a long run when I get off work. Always make me a little antsy, but will be very happy (if not a bit sore) when I’m done!!! We make our own happiness!
Allison B.
July 30, 2010 at 2:03 pmHmmmm… this day has been a crazy busy day. But my fiance dropped by work (he told me yesterday not to pack a lunch) and set up a picnic for the two of us. I was able to spend a hour with him in the middle of a hectic day so that turned my mood around. That and I am looking forward to a glass of wine when i get out 😀 So yes today is a happy day!
Kate
July 30, 2010 at 2:09 pmI just moved 1/2 way across country to Washington, DC from KS… I’m a little lonley, but yes VERY happy!

July 30, 2010 at 2:15 pmHappy as a clam 🙂 Beautiful, relaxing summer day, and looking forward to the weekend adventures ahead!
Amanda @ Amanda On Foot
July 30, 2010 at 2:16 pmToday, I was scared to get back on my road bike because it had been two and a half weeks since I’d done so. I thought my legs would be flimsy, my lungs on fire and my stomach in knots. I was afraid I would stop or throw up.
Well, I totally underestimated my body and not only did I make up the two-mile climb without stopping, throwing up or crying, I did so with a SMILE.
Today, I am happy because I have a strong body and an even stronger mind.
~Amanda
Emily
July 30, 2010 at 2:18 pmLife is very good and I am very happy 🙂
alanna ahlers
July 30, 2010 at 2:21 pmHappy!!! Yes!! Because a. its friday and i just finished work and b. i have a loaf of banana bread waiting for me when i get home !! =)
Kassi
July 30, 2010 at 2:22 pmI am on the way to true happiness for the first time in my life. A lot of work to get there still, but I’m certainly not unhappy. How about you? Are you happy?! 🙂
Jordan
July 30, 2010 at 2:24 pmYes, I’m happy! It’s Friday and I’m going out for Indian food with my lovely boyfriend. Life is good.
Alyssa
July 30, 2010 at 2:24 pmI would have to say that, yes, I am very happy, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t get sad. This morning for example, I had a little meltdown, but it is the moments like that that define our sadness and in turn define our happiness. I am so blessed to have a wonderful husband to put up with my antics 😉 Whenever I’m busy defining a “sad” moment, he makes sure to help me define and relish in happiness.
~Alyssa
AnneNP
July 30, 2010 at 2:25 pmToday has been a wonderful day…I made a difference in some patients’ lives, bought a good book, ate Pretzel m&ms, and am now about to see Inception with my manfriend…and as I write this, my cat is sitting next to me, and it seems he is also having a good day.
Erin
July 30, 2010 at 2:28 pmYes!
Aria
July 30, 2010 at 2:28 pmI am happy. I am very blessed to have wonderful friends, family, and boyfriend! Plus I’m extra happy that I start my vacation soon!! I’d love to win me some feta to take with 🙂
Shannon @ Before Sunrise

Amy H
July 30, 2010 at 2:32 pmI am happy right now. My parents are coming to visit soon (I only see them once or twice a year), I just went for a beautiful trail run/hike in the mountains (aka my backyard), and it is still summer which means no school for another few weeks. Definitely happy:)
Dana
July 30, 2010 at 2:34 pmToday I got to enjoy lunch with my grandparents (89 and 85 years old and still totally with it!) and my little sister. Tomorrow she returns to school and I will not see her until Thanksgiving, so I sought to enjoy every moment with her. Tonight we will enjoy a last family meal for a while, and Friday night dinner is always very special to me and my family. So yes, today, July 30, 2010, I was VERY happy!
Theresa
July 30, 2010 at 2:34 pmI am happy today. I have one more week at this job left and then I am starting a new job the following Monday. I am super excited.
Elana
July 30, 2010 at 2:38 pmYes! Because it’s Friday, I just got home from work, am planning what delicious farm-fresh ingredients to put on our homemade pizza when friends come over later, and the sun is shining! I was in a bit of a grumpy mood about ten minutes ago but I had a snack and that always helps 🙂
Amelia
July 30, 2010 at 2:40 pmAbsolutely!
Peggy
July 30, 2010 at 2:43 pmHow can I not be, just spent the day with my two daughters and neice, shopping and eating, in Oxford, MS!!!!

Love2Run
July 30, 2010 at 2:53 pmToday has been a stressful day, mostly because of work. But I know I did good things today for people, so yes, I’m happy.

Amanda
July 30, 2010 at 3:16 pmI am happy today. I got off work at 3 and went out to ride my horse. He was perfect and did everything I asked of him. He made me very happy. 🙂
Barbara
July 30, 2010 at 3:17 pmIts friday at 5:15. I’d say I’m pretty happy 🙂
And, a best friend is coming in town to visit in a little 4 hours. Doesn’t get much better than that. Unless maybe some wine and pizza is involved!
carol
July 30, 2010 at 3:17 pmHappy, but not in a big fat smile laughing way. I’m content and satisfied with all that I have.
Kara
July 30, 2010 at 3:22 pmVery happy. Last day of work for a while 3 weeks! Bath! Poolside Reading! Amazing dinner!
Crystal
July 30, 2010 at 3:26 pmKinda sorta. I had to get a cholesterol test today and I woke up too early, but my toddler is being adorable so it kind of balances out.
Lauren
July 30, 2010 at 3:31 pmIf you had asked this question yesterday, the answer would have been different. But thank the Lord, we have a new day and can start over. What’s the song that says something like, “live today like its never happend before.” That’s exciting! So today, I choose to be happy.
Katie
July 30, 2010 at 3:31 pmI couldn’t be happier today since I have my sister, brother in law, niece and nephew visiting from out of state!!
Carmen
July 30, 2010 at 3:33 pmHeck yes I am! This morning I took my last exam, finally finishing up a post-bacc year of nothing but science courses so I can apply to an entry-level masters of nursing program. Now I have a whole year to just play! And travel. And eat. So, yes, I am very happy. Great question!
Ellen
July 30, 2010 at 3:36 pmi’d say yes! lately i’ve kind of been burning the candle at both ends–working a lot of early mornings, but not willing to give up my late night play time too– so today i was determined to take it easy after work. i just woke up from a glorious 2.5 hour nap, so, so far, so good!
Kayla
July 30, 2010 at 3:42 pmVery happy today. It is a gorgeous sunny day, finished my second week at my new awesome job and getting ready for a great weekend away sailing and clamming!!!

July 30, 2010 at 4:51 pmHi!
I am happy tonight…now that I am home and the weekend is starting. Had a rough week at work. We had no internet access all week and I felt so disconnected to the world.
Be blessed!
Cathy
Kaley
July 30, 2010 at 4:52 pmHappy? Yes, I think so. I have a boyfriend whom I love, a good family, and a job. I think that I decided to be happy a long time ago, though.
Alexandra
July 30, 2010 at 5:11 pmI have to say that today, I honestly am happy. After having battled an eating disorder for over a year, many of my days are unhappy. Today, I ignored the mirror, I put on a pretty dress and went out with one of my best friends and MADE myself happy. We went to whole foods, and THAT made me happy. I had an amazing lunch and sampled a delicious array of new foods, and I bought some really exciting things, and THAT made me happy. And then, we got lost on the way home, and had to drive through a very sketchy area, where we almost drove the wrong way on a 1-way street, got hit by a truck and attacked by a mob of gang members –but none of those things happened to us (the almost did though) and the fact that I survived that and I can look back and laugh at it — THAT made me happy.
Yes, today, I am happy. I am happy that my parents worked so hard so I don’t have to LIVE in that sketchy area, I’m happy that I am who I am, and I am happy that whole foods exists.
Thank you,
Alexandra
Lindsay
July 30, 2010 at 5:14 pmThe fact that I can hear my 22 month old yelling “I love you Mommy” through the monitor, I’d have to say I’m pretty dang happy! (and of course, it’s Friday!!!!!!! :))
amanda
July 30, 2010 at 5:15 pmHmmmm…why is this such a hard question? I would say I am content…not super happy. lol

Kris
July 30, 2010 at 7:39 pmYes and No. I’m happy because I have an amazing family that brings me great joy every day. But I’m also very sad and frustrated at all of life’s challenges that seem to be piling up on us. Everything I believe in is being challenged. Aaahhhhh!

July 30, 2010 at 7:57 pmAnswer to that question simply put- No.
I’m quite restless and unsatisfied with my life at the moment and have been for quite a while.

July 30, 2010 at 8:38 pmIt’s taken me a long time, but I think I’ve officially reached a time in my life where I am truly happy. I’ve thrown away the diets, negative thoughts and harsh criticism of my body. I’m slowly learning to not only accept but LOVE the person I am! Everybody is different and that in and of itself is beautiful. I’m learning to love myself more and more each day and that is true happiness.

July 30, 2010 at 8:40 pmI am at an extremely good place in my life right now & I am very happy, but at this exact moment, I’m not as happy as I would be otherwise because I am missing a beloved pet who died this past Monday. I am happy in cherishing the memories I had with him though <3

July 30, 2010 at 9:20 pmOn the spectrum of happy to sad I am definitely on the happier side. However, I wouldn’t say that I had a fabulous day. It wasn’t terrible either. It was pretty blah. I’ve been in a rut lately and I am anxious about some good news that will hopefully be coming soon. I hate the waiting game.

July 30, 2010 at 9:58 pmI’m very happy! My husband and I, along with our daughters, just spent a month with my mom in South Carolina then moved to Virginia right near my sister. We’re military, so living near family is a rare treat.
Jenna
July 30, 2010 at 10:41 pmYes, at this moment (the day as a whole, not so much). I’m home from a 12 hour day. I am briefly catching up with my hubby, before going to bed because I have a 16+ hour day tomorrow.

Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.”

Katie
July 31, 2010 at 6:52 amHappy, well at this moment yes. But honestly that could change in 5 seconds, happy seems so fleeting. Content howerver; I am. Content to me is a choice despite circumstances and I am content 🙂

July 31, 2010 at 8:14 amI am happy to have good health, amazing friends, family and a new profession as an Oncology Dietitian helping children stay nutritionally healthy during their intense treatments and disease states. I am a 10 year cancer survivor myself so my passion and happiness is all around as for I celebrate life everyday. Optimism and happiness = me!

July 31, 2010 at 8:19 amAt the current moment, I’d say I’m not quite as happy has I could be, but making the best of it. Yesterday I had a skin graph in my mouth, and for a foodie, this is pure torture 🙁 Everything I eat must be soft and mushy when all I really crave is crunchy, summery salad. Let’s just say I’ve had a healthy dose of oats, sweet potatoes, and milk shakes here recently. Overall though, I’m a pretty happy person!

July 31, 2010 at 2:27 pmI’m happy! I just spent a lovely day walking around a nearby downtown, and treated myself to a nice lunch out!
