HappyUP!!! Day 2996


HappyUP!!! - BIRDIE on 18
Why it happened - 4 great shots
Why it makes me happy - I FAILED my partner on the back 9. HOWEVER, that unlikely...and relatively EASY birdie on 18...made up for it all.  When that 15 footer....after my misplays on the back 9...dropped in the jar to secure the win......NOTHING better!

HappyUP!!! - grabbing dough off bro
Why it happened - we compete
Why it makes me happy - I NEVER forget the BLESSING that I have the privilege of playing golf with/against my brother. Us dudes...as old as we get...are always competitive. I got him today...he may get me tomorrow...I just love and appreciate...that we have the opportunity to go at it

HappyUP!!! - Pot Roast Frittata
Why it happened - cooking
Why it makes me happy -I know something about me. I need protien in the morning. Eggs do the job. The frittata has been a blessing over last few months. Perfect way to make eggs. It is especially good way to toss in some leftovers.  THAT sauce I threw in made this one....DA BOMB!

HappyUP!!! Day 2995


HappyUP!!! - pot roast
Why it happened - TraderJoe's
Why it makes me happy - I threw another TJ's WINNER into the crock last night....while I slept...deliciouness was waiting for me in the morning. While you may not think about pot roast in the morning....think about your favorite candle......and....what is better than waking up to the smell of a great roast? Little stands before that...unless it was bacon!

HappyUP!!! - Bud Commercial
Why it happened - it's SuperBowl time
Why it makes me happy - you figure it out. THIS commercial WILL be number one rated commercial in SuperBowl. I'd put money on it

HappyUP!!!- Really?
Why it happened - some peeps are idiots
Why it makes me happy - I have my issues...but.....well....when I see what other people "struggle through"....when should have been done long ago.......I get very happy about my own mental health. My goodness....get over it...how many years will it take.  PRAYING for you, cowboy

HappyUP!!! Day 2994


HappyUP!!! - NutterUnity
Why it happened - weather
Why it makes me happy - GLAD that we chose not to step out in those conditions today. Soooooooo many better chances to play golf

HappyUP!!! - RAIN!!!
Why it happened - who knows? It doesn't happen around here lately
Why it makes me happy - it's NOTHING!!!...that moves the rain meter...but...in this drought....we will take WHATEVER we can get!  It appears the pressure zone that has kept rain away seems to have weakened it's defense. Hope it opens the door

HappyUP!!! - Jon's speech
Why it happened - Toastmasters
Why it makes me happy - ANOTHER cub...that is becoming a LION!!! Man, I just love that!

HappyUP!!! Day 2993


HappyUP!!! - DELIVERING
Why it happened - Toastmasters
Why it makes me happy - so glad I gave that speech this morning....there is at least ONE person that will commit to the experiment....and....that is what it is about...effect one person

HappyUP!!! - Kat C's speech
Why it happened - Toastmasters
Why it makes me happy - without that speech, I would have had NO idea that a local Downs Syndrome person......was inducted into the Sac Sports Hall of Fame....and what it means...to all of us.
I didn't realize a Downs Syndrome person could live until 54...let alone THRIVE...and still be acquiring SO MANY medals. INSPIRATIONAL

HappyUP!!! - watching road rage
Why it happened - I was just going to the store
Why it makes me happy - it made me appreciate my own driving behavior. I'm a pretty good driver. I get cut off....I don't get uptight about it.  I am sure that, on occasion, I mess up....I know on those few occasions when I do that I give the "courtesy wave"...which says, "oops...sorry!"  The "spin-a-round u-turn" I saw tonight was AWFUL. It wasn't aimed at me...it was at the driver in front of me....who did nothing wrong. I'm just glad I wasn't the car up...it would have only taken me leaving the house 4 seconds earlier...to be the target of this mentally deranged person's wrath. Witnessed it all

HappyUP!!! - more birdies
Why it happened - skills
Why it makes me happy - the other two were not cheap by any stretch of the imagination. They weren't as easy as the above...but.....I love these too.  It usually means finishing the deal with a great putt....which both of these were.  6 and 10 footers....which were in the hole as soon as they left the putter face

Why it happened - I am the man

HappyUP!!! - GREAT game
Why it happened - playoffs
Why it makes me happy - nope....we didn't win today....Seattle was tough enough to be straight up...when you add the questionable calls/ no-calls.....Niners didn't have enough today. No sour grapes. When you step on to the playing field, you have to beat the other team hard enough to take officials out of the game. Niners had the chance to do that.  GREAT season! Lots to look forward to

HappyUP!!! - the Colts
Why it happened - it's the playoffs
Why it makes me happy - one of greatest comebacks ever...what a game!!!

HappyUP!!! - IMPOSSIBLY INSANE up and down from bunker
Why it happened - a bit of knowledge...a dash of skill....and some luck
Why it makes me happy - that ball was buried up by the lip of the greenside bunker on 15. The pin was all the way in the back....a good 25 yards.  I looked at the sitch and said, "loft does not seem to be what is needed here as the near 90 degree stance I am going to be standing in will take care of that."  With that, I took out an 8 iron....ball went straight up...lots of top spin...settled within 5 feet of the hole and I tapped it in.

HappyUP!!! - Birdie on 9
Why it happened - skillz
Why it makes me happy - we needed this one. I hit a big tee shot. The pin was farther back than I have ever seen it. Dang....it was darn near in the bar!!! I hit it pin high left....a ridiculously treacherous putt that I could NOT afford to 3 putt.  I DRIZZLED that 15 foot breaker down the slope.....and right into the bank!!!

HappyUP!!! - flop shot on 17
Why it happened - I know how to do that
Why it makes me happy - unfortunately, I missed the putt....but THAT flopper was AS GOOD AS IT GETS
