Today’s happiness is brought to you by the number THREE (which, coincidentally, happens to be my favourite number)… as in, today marks Week THREE of the fun “Write in your own space” MicroblogMondays, my personal Day THREE of participating in the delightful 100 Happy Days challenge, and THREE more pebbles removed from my “Going… Going…” weight loss mason jar and transferred to the “Gone” one.
100 Happy Days – Day 3
(That brings me to 32 pounds lost in total!)
And of course there’s more than one “three” reference in a favourite movie of mine, which I have to throw in because it never fails to make me laugh out loud many times throughout. THREE points and a virtual cookie if you can guess what it is without Googling – here’s a hint…
“One, Two, Five!”
“Three, sir.”
“Three!”
What made you happy today?

Congrats on the continuing weight loss, Laurel–great job! And no, I don’t know the movie (but I’m assuming it’s not the Three Stooges).

Way to go with the weight loss! You’re so inspiring. I have fallen off the wagon lately in my efforts so you’re an inspiration.
Fun to have a favourite number like three. It is a significant number and seen in everything from biblical to writing references. A great number for sure!

I don’t know why, but three – and things in groups of three – just feels right to me. Weird!
