Celebrate Each Day November 20 to 26

Holiday’s you NEVER think about !

I have been trying to Celebrate Every Day. My Mom is in a nursing center and in the process she has forgotten joy. The joy of the simple or the joy of grand.

I have taken to writing ONE thing each day. I have found a notebook and it’s my goal to journal that one joy each day. Big or small, an idea or a simple walk around the block. Quote’s I’ve read or something fun someone said today.

The journal maybe better as it’s written, I see NO iphone calendars at the facility. Maybe in 20 years…

I add the Year – 2019 and then one special thing for that day, this book will last me 20 years.

I figure, I’m 61 now, in 20 years I will have 20 wonders for each day ! I want to live in Happiness as I grow old. To get YOU started, I found these day celebrations from this site, http://www.holidayinsights.com
