Simple Pleasures In Life!

TemptationWaits

Seeing really cute couples around the place.
A big cup of tea from my favourite cup.
When you have a whole series, or more, of a great tv show to watch.
Icebergers, and the fact that is it ice-cream season again.


And for anyone who likes sucking tea through chocolate bars, the Australian biscuits Tim Tams are the best for that. :cool:

New socks.

I couldn't believe it took over a hundred posts for new socks! It's amazing!

When you use soap that you had in your house during a certain period of your life and the smell reminds you of then It's great cause we never have the same soap.

Toes in sand. Toes in cold grass when it's really warm.

Washing my hair when I'm hungover.

When I don't have to talk to people I know on the bus.

When I remember to use oven gloves while getting something out of the freezer

Not a strange one, but the sound of water gently lapping up on stones. Ahhhh

Squeezing a pimple and watching the contents hit the mirror

The first warm day of the year, when you go out wearing a jumper and just have to take it off. :cool: brilliant feeling.

Getting my hair cut - puts me to sleep.

Smell of hay, manure in the country - dont know why that is, guess It reminds me of childhood.

Reading the paper on a sunday morning with tae and a sandwich. cant beat that one.

Telling myself I'l just check boards for 5 minutes, and now its 01:34. shiiiiiiiiit.

Scratch the last one.

Seeing my baby's smile first thing in the morning

I love going back home and going out to my back garden and seeing my dogs reaction, when he realizes im home.

My nephews running and hugging me.

Putting my warm hoodie on if im cold.

Watching a thunderstorm.

Collapsing into bed after a hard night dancing.

Taking off high heels after a night out.

Taking my bra off at the end of the day.

You take off your bra and I'll make the tea.

Can't believe nobody has mentioned falling asleep on the couch while struggling to keep your eyes open in a vain attempt to watch telly.

Also, Daft Punk.

Sitting in the bay in a canoe on a roasting day with the seals circling you trying to size you up.

shaving slowly when I don't have to as opposed to quickly when I need to.

building up a nice log fire then tending to it

a finely cooked steak after a good gym session

a few cans watching a nice dvd at home

the greeting my dog gives me every evening when I come home

The first cup of coffee from a fresh jar.

Opening a fresh jar of coffee, the sound as you puncture the foil top with a spoon, the smell of the coffee and then the pleasure of peeling all the foil off before making a cuppa. Bliss.

I actually hate this coz I always then go to brush my teeth feeling all sleepy and ready for bed but as soon as the toothpaste hits my mouth, am wide awake again and dont sleep for hours.


For me its the first beer after a home game particularly when my team have won and I have finished working at the game so can relax and discuss the game.

Also away trips......a gang of like minded loonies, heading on a bus with beer. Such fun.

I had a party in my house Fri nite and everyone adored my dog and was playing with him all night. I felt so proud of him.

Like the look in that ad, where yer man is standing just down from some wan at a luas stop, he thinks she's looking him over, he's getting all slick, turns out she's looking at a poster for Mortgages next to him.


That kinda look....

stupidusername

The look yer one gives or yer man?

I'll try to make note of who the ad was for next time I see it. Just thought the thing was hilarious itself.

Sure if I ever see someone doing that I'm thinking...

1) What's going on behind me..?
2) Is she having a stroke..?

:P

stupidusername

Awh! Many a missed opportunity I reckon.

conor_ire

The realisation that during a recession I got a pure handy job that pays well and is real secure.

Going to pay for me to get out of this country.

The feeling of relief when you have been bursting to pee for a long time and you finally get to release it !

This is good. It's not about something depressing, it's not political, it's not bashing anyone.

BRILLIANT.

I like eating a whole block of cheddar cheese in one sitting. Oh yeah... cheese.

I like coming home and taking off my bra. Aaaahhhh.

ladybirdirl

When my gorgeous other half lets me borrow his hoodie.I can then wear it & smell it all day as it smells of him

Falling into bed so exhausted you feel like lead, and knowing you don't have to get up in the morning.

The sound of howling wind outside when you wake in the middle of a winters night.

Waves lapping the shore as you daydream/snooze on a beach.

The sound/smell of the coffee machine clicking into life in the morning.

Warm bath, crisp sheets, hot chocolate.

The feeling you get when you look out your window on a December morning and see pure, untouched, pristine white snow.

kfallon

Coming in tonight after football in the pissing rain and having a really warm shower and getting into my bumblebee shorts

treborflynn

being out walking on the land on a howling moonlight night with no civilization for miles.
waking up around 3 or 4 in the morning a realizing you have a few more hours in bed.
after not drinking for a couple of weeks the feeling of well being that can be obtained.
a big pizza out of dominos when you have a hangover.

A nice warm shower on a cold wet day..

-Harvesting vegetables I've grown myself.

-Eating Green and Black's organic chocolate.

-Burning candles in a dim room, preferably with incense.

-Learning French vocabulary.

-Throwing water in my own face in an attempt to energise myself.

lesserspottedchloe

the first wave of heat that greets you while stepping off a plane in a warm country, the first icy wave that slaps me over the head and really 'refreshs' me while bboarding in Ireland , the cuddles my cat gives me when I havn't seen him all day:)
