100 Things That Make Me Happy

This was another idea stolen from katie at Runs for Cookies. I'm so glad I did it. I've been pretty stressed out and upset lately with how certain things are going in my life. Mainly the effects of other peoples actions on me. I'm really bad about letting things that I can't control get to me. This list helped me get into a better mind set. I hope you'll make a list too.
