The Small Things In Life. What Makes You Happy?

My morning energy drink.

My youngest son who knows how to let things just bounce off of him and not take life too seriously. He's plain goofy at times. His brother and I are just the opposite and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. It gives us a reprieve.

Watching the birds on the feeders in the snow.

That I can manage not to be dissociated.

Learning new things and changing my brain through neuroplasticity.

Knowing that Max is okay and will be home tonight.

Oh KP that is wonderful!

Having my dog laying next to me and keeping me warm makes me happy on a cold day.

A member of one of the facilities, came by and told me how much she appreciated the pool and spa being taken care of "diligently" and how much nicer it was, even a big thank you. It was kind of her to say, I don't hear that very often

That I can do things. I really am capable and competent.

That I try to do things even when the body is betraying me. Yesterday I slept over 18 hours but, when my husband came home, I forced myself to get up and eat something. I was back to sleep shortly there after to finish my 18.5 hour marathon, but it made my husband happy to see me eat and drink and that made me happy. That's the bad thing about having to sleep so long, no nourishment.

I am learning to make small adjustments to manage my emotions and thus my life. It is heartening.

Getting a piece of artwork, in this case a poster, and making it into a wall hanging. I like the crafty part of it. I'm going to put the poster on canvas of which I have painted the edges(of the canvas). It is a bright floral print and will hang in my kitchen. Though it is a fraction of the price I would have paid to get it already done like that, it still is pricey so I hope it goes well. I guess that is the excitement of the project.
