Happiness Is Walking Balboa Island on Christmas Eve

Balboa Island CA Ring of Lights 2011 Annual Winner

It’s Christmas Eve 2011 and I drove from Las Vegas, NV down to Orange County, CA this afternoon. After having a turkey dinner with my Mom at Polly’s Pies I headed down to Balboa Island. I used to live in Orange County and walking Balboa Island was one of my favorite forms of exercise and ways to clear my head.

It has a sidewalk around the perimeter and it’s safe to walk practically any time of the day or night. Pluses include fresh ocean air, beautiful scenery (homes, boats, flowers, birds, etc).

When I lived in CA my Christmas Eve tradition was to walk Balboa Island and enjoy the

beautifully decorated homes and give thanks for all I have.

So today, my HAPPINESS IS walking Balboa Island on Christmas Eve a long standing tradition (and I do it when I get the chance).

What is your HAPPINESS IS… moment for today?

Happiness IS Selling Something I Didn’t Need on Craigslist

December 22nd, 2011 No comments

Today I sold a new in the box GPS that I won as a door prize at last year’s company holiday lunch.  It’s been collecting dust for a year, so I decided to list it earlier this month on Craigslist hoping someone might be looking for one to give as a holiday gift.

Today I received an email from a guy who wanted to buy it for a Christmas gift for his grandmother.  He got the gift he wanted (for someone who can use it) and I have one less unused item in my home and some extra cash.

What was your “happiness IS …” moment today?
