Normalcy! How I crave thee! Until I get my laptop fixed, I am enduring a ghetto laptop-hooked-up-to-a-monitor workaround, so I am still somewhat out of my comfort zone. But to sit and write about something that brings me joy other than natural disasters? To take my kids to my usual grocery store–that is now reopen–and fill our working refrigerator with food? To work on my photos and send them out to family, only to come across little gems like these ones:
Normalcy is heaven. Pure heaven. Broken computer or no, I’ll take today and be grateful for it.
How about you? How have you been? I’ve MISSED this blog hop! Can’t wait to catch up with you all and share in your happiness.
The Happiness Is… blog hop is simply a place to come, link up a post (not your homepage!) that made you happy recently (anything but a giveaway or review) and share it with the rest of us! Photos, recipes, crafts, stories, moments, and anecdotes are all welcome! Come peruse other amazing posts and meet fantastic new people in the blogosphere! The only rule is to please grab my button (right sidebar) and link back to me in some way! That way more people will come and learn about this uplifting way to promote your blog!
Also, I will link back to my favorite post of the week on Twitter and Facebook every Monday after the link closes. It could be you! And don’t forget to peruse past favorite links in my Happiness Is Blog Hop tab above. If you’re featured, your link will be up there forever!
Can’t wait to read all your wonderful posts! Thanks for sharing!












That's adorable! I hope to get something together to link up tomorrow!
Don't forget!! I love your posts!
I second an attempted return to normalcy!! Glad glad glad to see you guys are doing ok up there. I've been keeping up to date with your posts, but only now had a moment to actually comment. Thins are wild, aren't they?! So sorry about the bridge, but thankful you are all ok
Thank you! Things are really getting better every day, but it was scary for a bit! Thanks for your kind words and thoughts
Thanks for hosting again, Becky! By the way, I love the new look of "Rub Some Dirt…"!
Gillian from Baby Talk without the Babble
Thank you!! I\’m really excited about it!
for sure!! How do you get your little one to eat Hummus
Oh my gosh, she would eat it all day if I let her!! It\’s just one of those things. She won\’t drink a drop of milk, but she loves hummus. I\’d say keep experimenting with the different flavors and I bet you\’ll find one your kids will like
A baby and her hummus… nothing better! Glad things are slowing getting back to normal for you.
Thank you!! Nothing better than normal
And hummus
So glad things are getting back to normal! So easy to take for granted…
Thank you
It really is amazing to be back to \”normal\” so quickly, and one town away is still without water! We\’re very lucky
Loving the new blog look! I didn't see the html to link up the "Happiness Is" button on the right. I did link up a post I thought you'd particularly enjoy though.
These photos are SUPER!!!
THATS really ENJOYING your food!! The middle bottome shot with her hands up!!! PRICELESS!!!
=^D
Thank you! She is quite an eater
I'm already a follower of yours from before! Welcome back and thanks for hosting.
Of course! Glad you could come link up!
So glad to hear things are back to normal! The new design looks great, too!
Normalcy IS nice, isn't it? I need to catch up on your blog…Was your family near Irene? Did you guys have to evacuate? Glad you're okay! PS: I linked up, but I couldn't find the button on your sidebar.
We were hit with major flooding but we\’re actually doing okay now. I was pretty lucky personally. Thanks for linking up–I\’m having the blog redesigned so not everything in my sidebar is there right now. Next time
