Strawberry ice-cream cone ( I just had one) and Golden Girls!

The kitty sleeping on the pillow next to me.
Waking up to a quiet sunny day.
The smell of fresh brewed coffee.
The smiling faces of my kids and grandkids.

Mainly my home -- gives me that contented relieved feeling every time I’m away and comeback; MY home that I’ve made for me, only for me. It was a fixer upper. Improving my home was/is like working and improving myself. I've kinda been a hermit :ninja: for over a year now, and haven't gone too crazy just because I love being in my home and on my property so much. Though I will be thankful when I get a firm grip on employment so I can feel relief more often when I come home from a job. :cautious:

Other small things:
Music & exercise uplifts my mood.
Quiet moments inside and outside my mind (at the same time) can activate my reset button.
Being resourceful gives me pride.
Receiving a real ‘like’ (not just a pity like) for being helpful makes me feel useful to the outside world.
Ice Cream! (vanilla/chocolate swirl, or mint chocolate chip) and sometimes as a gingerale float.

just the little things

Enraging people by going slow scanning items at the checkout, and putting the electricity bill up by running the heater high.not really,

sleeping in for 5 minutes in the comfy warm bed, making people happy, doing a hem on tracksuit pants, eating cheesecake, and the little things my son says that makes me laugh.

Lazing late in bed with my 2 dogs snuggled with me for comfort.

The sunshine and the birds playing outside.
Watching my cats lay on their backs in the sun!:p
My son playing soccer and being a normal kid. I am so glad he has that!!!:inlove:

Sunshine... and the wind in my hair :)

Swimming.. er... actually, floating in the water staring up at the blue sky

My children smiling and inviting me to play

This new discipline program we're doing that has ended our need to yell at the kids, shake our fingers and lecture them, and NAG them to do their chores. :D They know when we're going to check that they've picked up after themselves, and so they take care of it on their own. They know when their chore has to be completed by, so they take care of it without being asked. Yea! :D What a difference it has made in our family life!

The sunshine, my bible study group, lunch with a friend, walking with my hubby.

 

[KP the nut]

Having a completely free day with nothing written in the diary.

 

[Muzikluvr]

Chatting with KP, and picturing her drinking too much wine, and eating too much chocolate in the garden with Hubby last night. :D

Goal: Plant a garden. Buy two comfortable chairs. Invest in some delicious wine and chocolate! :)

Coffee. I love coffee.

A hug from my hubby. Pleasant, sunny days. Accomplishing my goals for the day. A good piece of chocolate! :)
