Not open for further replies.
So many thing really.

I love a cup of tea...just plain old tea with two sugars and milk. So soothing and really picks me up. Green tea is good too.

I love painting and dancing as therapy.

playing with cats, I even like it when they bite me.

lying face down on the grass in a park or natural setting.

tree hugging

collecting sap from pine trees to use as incense.

watching things grow...like seedlings.

sunflowers.

anything bright yellow or orange.

My new doona cover.

touch, when it is respectful and I want to be touched.

eating good food.

coconut juice

fresh sheets washed and clean...diving under them.

dreaming

swimming...water. Ocean, river, creek, waterfalls...all kinds of water to play in, float on and put my ears under so I can't hear anything. the peaceful feeling that comes from lying in a bathtub and gently rocking from side to side.

beautiful things I surround myself with

laughing with friends.

laughing at comedy shows.

Seinfeld.

Being held and cuddled by someone nice

crystals

essential oils

smiling

Very large trees with limbs that twist and curl around and go down to the ground even. Giant trees that make me wonder.

Stars at night

Mysteries

counting the things that make me happy makes me happy.
 
Goal: Plant a garden. Buy two comfortable chairs. Invest in some delicious wine and chocolate!
...and invite KP and CraftyCath to come and share it with you! ;) :rolleyes: :roflmao:

For me yesterday it was this....

002Mojito and strawberry daiquiri at Waterhead.webp

Drinking cocktails while having lunch at a beautiful hotel overlooking Lake Windermere and the sun shone all day! Absolutely beautiful!
 
I enjoy my children so much. They are not a burden to me. They are a blessing!!!

I agree 100%!!! I truly enjoy my daughter, Sarah. We make each other laugh all the time. Infact, this morning I told her she looked and sounded like Beaker from the Muppits after shoving half a muffin into her mouth. She laughed so hard I got a muffin bit shower. It was very funny!!!
 
Silly as this may sound, I found wisteria growing in the trees in the back yard, it is one of my most favorite flowers and I had to smile :) cause I think it's beautiful. I am also tickled that I have 30 morning glories that are up already.

...and I got to spend some time hanging out with my younger sister today and that too made me feel happy. My mother found out that she does not have cataracts, so that good news made me happy.

I have to take my road test over for my driver's license because I lost them many years ago due to a d.u.i. My sister's bf said I can use his truck to take the test since my car won't pass inspection yet and that made me happy too.

The more I think about it the more it seems it truly is 'the small things in life' that make me feel the happiest.:):D:laugh:
