The Small Things In Life. What Makes You Happy?

I was just watching the Golden Girls yesterday and laughing. I know comedies are supposed to be healing for PTSD. Laughing is healing.

I find nature most healing and peaceful. I try to take long walks in state parks, or at the beach, weather permitting, and breathe in the fresh air and enjoy the scenery and all of mother nature's immense beauty. Just to hear the birds chirpping outside of my open window recently gave me momentary peace and a sense of calm that is so lacking in my life. I also love going to the ocean and listening to the waves and smelling the fresh air deep in my lungs. To be by a body of water is where and what I find a sense of peace and serenity not found elsewhere. The simplicity and beauty of nature.
 
I love comedies too! And the Golden Girls was one of the best silliest shows I watched growing up :)

My pets really make me smile and feel good. I have three dogs and two cats and two fish. I even love my fish!! They are so cute. They beg for food--it's amazing. The dogs and cats are always around watching what goes on. I am never alone, that's for sure! One of my cats has a very keen instinct on the perfect time to come to me. When I feel sad or lonely, she comes up to me in a very loving manner. It truly seems as if my animals are my guardians.
 
Ilove my anxiety meds when they kick in. I love it when the wash is done. I just got a new washer and a dryer. It will make my life easierl Next weekend I will get both of my grandaughters for a weekend visit.

I love my animals. They are funny and cute and I like it when they cuddle me. Kisses and hugs from ny husband. A really good movie to watch. Good food.

We will go food shopping today and get stocked up on supplies. We will get it over. Then we will go to McDonalds for a mocha frappe. We will treat ourselves. All in all it is a good day ahead for mel:)
 
"Walked through" some fears today without getting overwhelmed or needing medication and that makes me very happy.:D

Also, I am in my own little environment today, just hanging at the house and taking it easy, enjoying the peace and quiet. :tup:

The weather has been quite nice today too and earlier, my sister and I, stopped for a Philly cheese-steak sub sandwich, took it to the park, and ate our lunch.:)
