Hello and welcome to Happier, a podcast that gives you ideas and strategies for how to be happier.

This week we'll talk about designing your summer and about the question, are you the difficult one?

I'm Gretchen Rubin, a writer whose studies happiness could have its immune nature.

I'm a New York City and with me is my sister Elizabeth Kraft, who is also now the co-host of another show Happier in Hollywood.

That's me, Elizabeth Kraft, a TV writer and producer living in LA.

And yes, Gretchen, Sarah and I have launched our show Happier in Hollywood.

We are loving it. It's so fun.

Thank you everyone for listening and emailing us.

And rating and reviewing and subscribing, we always have to say that.

Yes, please.

It's a big help for a new show because it helps other listeners get interested.

What's coming up? What do people have to look forward to in the next episode?

Well, I've got a tease, Gretchen. Tomorrow we are talking about bullet journal.

I hope that our listeners tune in for that because bullet journals are a hot topic right now.

And Sarah is a devotee.

So we have a lot to say about it.

Excellent, excellent.

And we have been getting so many fantastic haiku because last week in episode 117 we talked about, try this at home of writing a haiku.

And we have our fabulous Twitter hashtag HappierHaiKu.

Folding and folding. But my baby wants playtime. The laundry must wait.

And I want to say a wonderful picture of her baby.
