What makes me happy?

Admittedly, I've not been having a lot of really good days lately.  I'm completely and utterly overwhelmed, with a dwindling sense of hope.

Unfortunately, I can't allow myself to succumb to these feelings of despair because I have too many people relying on me. I have to find ways of snapping myself out of this, so I can find the strength and courage to soldier on.

One of the things that I try to do is make it a point to find something that makes me feel happy. My family obviously makes me happy but sometimes, I have to focus on something just for me.

This will probably sound a little strange but I absolutely love *The Penguins of Madagascar *cartoon.

We have a few of the multi-episode movies and I always feel really good while watching this.  The Penguins are just awesome but they always make me laugh, especially Rico.

Sooooo guess what we're watching this morning? You're goddamn right!!!  The Penguins of Madagascar. :-)

Thankfully, the boys love watching this as well and so it works out quite well right now.

What is something that makes you happy? Something you can do for yourself, to try and get through a tough time? I'd love to hear about your experience..
