Three Points of Happiness

I finished watching Sunday morning 10 minutes ago and was struck by one of the themes, 3 Points of Happiness. The first was a high school academy in Cleveland, the second was an 80 year old man who had found the inner artist while in a homeless shelter, and the third was a young and famous violinist who had single handedly set up a foundation for children.

Here are my 3 points of happiness for today:
  1. Walking to Lunch yesterday – Kyle and I walked to our new favorite Mexican restaurant, El Pescador, which took 35 minutes. The food was amazing as always and then we took the bus home. Walking to dinner makes me happy because we get to see all the changes to the streets and home up close and it makes me more hungry.
  2. Moving day – today we pack up our Madison condo into a 22 foot Penske truck and tow our CRV to Boston. I am optimistic that we’ll be able to modify our condo mortgage with Chase and find a renter. My happiness is founded in moving and exploring a new city while still keeping our security blanket here in Madison.
  3. Motorcycle Sidecar – kind of a trivial point of happiness, but Kyle and I have been talking about this and doing some research. I really want something vintage looking and an added bonus would be a luggage rack so I can tie down my leather suitcases. The thought of taking weekend trips in the Northeast with the dogs (Gordo complete with goggles).
  4. Oh, and a fourth bonus point of happiness is that I am happy to be posting this entry while riding passenger on I-90 between Albany, NY and Boston with the help of some redneck technology.
