After talking with some others, I think the happiness comes from finding time to do things that bring me joy and give me energy. If I schedule the "fun" things, everything else gets scheduled in between. It's like the principle of doing first things first.
One big caveat. I am aware that my time is limited and I have been known to over schedule myself, so I need to continue to evaluate my schedule and commitments and pull back the reigns if necessary. My husband usually helps with that when it starts to get too crazy.
So for now, I have some side projects at work and I am helping plan fundraisers for the Relay for Life in my community to support the American Cancer Society. As long as we can still get family time activities on the weekend, things are stable...and I keep busy.
