happiness is...

I woke up pretty late today. The three fasters did an exercise class with Jane – more trampoline jumping, although we mixed up the music a bit and sweated to disco music this time.

I’ve been instructed not to do the stretching part of the class because I’m apparently bendy enough already, and I wasn’t feeling like doing resistance training again, so I headed back upstairs to work on painting after the jumping. I didn’t accomplish a whole lot especially since Napoleon Dynamite was on downstairs…

After dinner (beetroot and carrot juice for me and Dean, and yummy-smelling chicken curry made by Dean), we got into a philosophical discussion on happiness. I seem to get into a lot of those lately, definitely by accident – I’m not really into debating stuff like that, but I couldn’t really get out of it this time even by saying that my definition of happiness does not involve debating it.
