find at least one thing each day that makes me happy

Laughing with my sister. She’s so goofy, yet serious sometimes. You never know if she knows what she’s talking about or not. Then when she finally GETS IT she makes this duh kind of face. It’s great.

Text messaging back and forth with friends.

A clean home. Nothing better than a clean smelling, freshly vacuumed, bright home to just BE.

Great new shoes that help my poor, aching feet and legs. Put them on and you can actually hear your feet and legs sigh of relief.

How my little baby niece reaches for me to take her. Her big smiles and laughs, hugs and kisses. MUAH.

Music. All music but most especially music with great rhythm that makes me want to just get up and dance.

Snuggles and pillow talk with my sweetheart.

Coffee. Nothing like a fresh cup of coffee to start your day. Coffee and quiet time or coffee and a great friend with wonderful conversation, smiles and laughter.

Going to church because I want to. It makes me feel at peace with myself because I have a true hunger and desire to be there, to learn and grow and be accepted.

Sunday afternoon naps with my dad. I always look forward to our visits, but there is just something comforting about being able to rest comfortably in the home I was raised in, where no matter what day or time you walk through the door you are welcomed and loved.

Time with my family. I love and appreciate so much, the family I have been blessed to be given.

My db of 4+ years. I have been so blessed for him to love and adore me as he does. He has changed my life for the better.

Knitting. Learning to knit was something I always wanted to do. I finally caught on and am so glad I did. I love how easily it came to me after I finally GOT it. Knitting brings me peace and time for meditation and thought.

Diamonds are definitely a girl’s best friend. : )

the dogs had been waiting for this all day. i wanted to take them out but had no leash. i need a leash. and someone to take control of it. so i waited until someone took all three of us for a walk. the dogs run around the empty golf course. the sun came down. he pointed out the tree where the fairies live. and showed me the orange moon.

subway sandwiches !
