If you only feel up to doing one or two of the things on the list, I believe even that could improve your mood. So feel free to share any of your adventures doing these things here at any time. Or private message me if you feel that something you have done is more of a thing that you want to share privately with one person who is in the know on this HAPPINESS THING. I will share some of the things here now that I have done this week:

As a Random Act of Kindness, I noticed that our exercise leader's chair had been moved, so I moved it back to where it is supposed to be so that he would not have to do it.

I wished two ladies a happy holiday weekend who live in a nursing home and were about to leave our Senior Center to return there for the weekend. I made sure to smile at both of them and they smiled back at me, which made me feel really good.

During Exercise:

I used weights this week, which I have never done before. Usually I just do our Senior Center Exercise Program without them, but doing it with them was not a lot more difficult.

I also tried to hold in my gut, which is something that anyone can do any time. This might help to reduce fat build-up in that area of the body.

Positive Experience:

Someone came over to me and told me how happy he was that I told off a bully who has been bullying the both of us for months. He said he was happy I put the guy in his place, because he then did not have to do it. This made my day, in fact it made my week!

Meditation or Prayer: I included my awareness of my Creator during exercise. I rarely think of much of anything while doing exercise, but the exercise itself. This time I did some mindfulness meditation while working out too.

Some things I am grateful for this week:

This forum, which I just discovered this week. I am learning about it and how to use it to help me in my Bipolar moods.

A book I am reading called CODEPENDENCY NO MORE by Melody Beatie which is telling me all about the side of my life that I had no clue existed.

September is here. I love this time of year!

There's lots more, but these are the highlights!
