Optimistic October 2019

I found this month's calendar on the Action for Happiness web site.  Yes, I'm very late this time.  My laptop quit charging in late September, and I had to send off for a new cord.  When it arrived, it had been two weeks since I'd posted anything, and I simply forgot about the calendar ... until now.  Here's what they suggest we do for the rest of October.
