Last year Charlie @mum2two asked those of us who were interested to participate in a 100 Happy Days Challenge. You can see the details here. As 2015 is rapidly drawing to a close, I thought I would personally do another one.
Last year a number of us did this challenge. We committed to taking a one photo for 100 days of something that made us happy that day. The photo didn't have to be a masterpiece, but had to have some kind of meaning. I thoroughly enjoyed the one I did last year as it really encouraged me to find something good in everyday that I could take a photo of and post.
You can participate through the 100 Happy Days website, on Facebook or we can do another challenge here this year.
If you'd like to join in the tag would be: 100happydays2015 and the challenge would run from now (24th September) until the 2nd January!
I will also be blogging about my daily post as I have time to do so this year!
Who would like to join me for some fun and daily 'happy' on 365?
Debs
PS. I will endeavour to do a fortnightly reminder to all those who have shown interest as a motivator to keep us going. We can post our favourite pic from the fortnight in the thread to inspire others.
@salza Great, doesn't matter what they are off, so long as they make you happy! Put a little sticky on the side of your computer screen with a reminder to tag perhaps?
Will definitely give this a go. I LOVE September and and the autumn months but it also coincides with the sometimes 'depression' I experience. Positively finding and photographing something that makes me happy should be a win win. @callymazoo?
Hmm. Need something to focus on at present. Been a rough few weeks so I need to start noticing the good things in life. Shame I did not photograph the gorgeous baby who was brought round for an introduction today. Ok, and thanks for tagging me @motherjane
Debs, thank for starting this. I'd love to participate but I only really post pics of what makes me happy - so I might feel a bit as if I am cheating?!!
@khirsch Karin, it is great fun. Last year I wondered if I could do 100 days and at times I thought I might drop out, but I did it and it was worth it. The shots don't have to be master pieces, just a momento of your day.
@dibzgreasley Thank you for your encouragement, I think I give it a try .Since all my photos are far from being master pieces anyway I might as well look for the happy moments of my day

@dibzgreasley I'm in, thanks for starting this, I'm going to set a reminder on my phone as I want o complete this challenge this time! A great blog you have by the way
@motherjane@callymazoo sorry to hear both bit low....been wondering how your family was Cally. I didnt do it last year but will give it a go this year Debs. Thanks for setting it up.
@newbank Thanks for your concern. Doing OK. Had a few days off, though hardly a rest as coincided with organising a parish raffle for Sundays Harvest, and baking for a local show on Saturday as I had committed myself. Back to work on Monday which will probably do me good but would love to just stay at home, sleep or sit in the garden listening to the birds and watching the rabbits eat the windfalls! Been a rough year, but I have managed to stay on here, even if the photos are often taken another day.
I'd like to give it a try. Can we use pictures of happy days we haven't had a chance to post yet, or do they have to be current? I have a couple from the summer that were special memories.
@dibzgreasley just one more question. Where can I post my pictures so I don't use up my 365 dates on this? I'm not an ACE member, so can only post one photo a day. That's why I have so any older ones I really want to post but haven't had an opportunity to do yet. Would I post them to the Happy Days website on FB?
@skstein Yes, I think you can post them on FB with the #100happydays tag although I haven;t tried it. I think you can post of their page or your own with the tag. try it and see
Tweets ahoy!

I don't mind, the more the merrier. Its entirely up to you!
Jane and Cally, it would be really great for you both then! Yay!

Oh wow, thanks for having a read. I am hoping that I will be able to keep it up for 100 days! We shall see.
Glad to have you on board!
Hi Sandy. No rules, just post what makes you happy and say why! Be great to have you play along.
Great to have you both on board!
