The Small Things In Life. What Makes You Happy?

I have a house

Today it was telling an 85 year old friend who was finicky about lunch that she'd better be glad she had "her lunch" instead of "my lunch". When she asked what it was and I told her, her face scrunched up into the funniest expression and said, "My lands, is there anything you won't eat?" (To which I replied, "No, not really... if it's supposed to be "good" for you." She was speechless and ate every bit of her lunch.)

I had miso soup with ginger red snapper, seaweed, and turnip greens, black rice with pressed barley, and a broccoli stem and cucumber/redpepper salad. ;)

I think maybe nothing. I used to have friends that made me happy. Not just that they were friends but that they were such amazing people. It made me feel better about life generally.

My dog is the best thing in my life. Taking him for a walk in the woods makes me happy. Of course I love to cuddle with him.

The little one I'm working with learnt to say my name today! :)

Finishing some printing at work - that printer and I have a love hate relationship - well, mainly hate.

When I'm validated by something that I just knew, but I knew.

Ran into someone yesterday whom I haven't seen in quite some time, and somehow with our catching up on things, she confirmed what I had thought. Now, I can do the happy dance and realize that my intuition was correct!

My new kitten April. She makes me happier than I think I've ever been in my entire life.

Quintin (my horse today), he was the source of happiness today and the reason I smiled for 3hours while riding him country side, enjoying the view and Aruba's untouched nature!

Looking forward to going out with some friends tonight. A show and dancing will really help my attitude.

Last night my husband told me a story about finding another box turtle who'd gotten itself stuck in our chain link fence (just big enough to start going through the hole, but too big to get all the way through... it couldn't go forwards or backwards). I was happy to see the look on his face and the tone of his voice, when he told me the story of the turtle's rescue... and I remembered vividly why, inspite of all our trials, tribulations, and differences, I love and partnered with this person.
