I had carpal tunnel release surgery last week and no one was more excited than me to get it done and over with. No one except my husband who has been hearing me complain incessantly for the past year that my fingers are numb, and the circulation is cut off in my hands. This happened a lot when I was pregnant.

How full is YOUR bucket?
This really makes a difference in your happiness level! If you are unfamiliar with the concept check out the book “How full is your bucket?” by Tom Rath and Donald O.

Spend some time thinking about the things that make you happiest and check back here for tips!
