Not The Trivial things that make you happy

Just home after a long day. Having toast and a cup of tea, with my feet up.

Got absolutely soaked on way home this eve, had a hot shower and into dry clothes, happy days.

Had a lovely woman in from Dogs Trust to give a speach at college today. She bought along her 5 year old Boxer dog Jake.
He was possibly the most well trained Boxer I've ever encountered. I spent ages rubbing him and he was rolling all over the floor getting belly rubs. Can't beat the affection a dog gives.

Getting indoors on a cold and dreary evening, and it's Friday.

Saw a duck trying to outrun the Luas today, happily quacking all the way

Pat Custard

Cuddling up in bed beside my girlfriend after a long, hard day.

Sir Arthur Daley

The morning horn.

Sitting in the house on my own in PJ's looking at heavy rain out in the backgarden and just thinking how good it is to be indoors and have absolutely nothing to do for the day. All this done in complete silence.

When I see business people in the park on a summers day with their jackets off and top buttons loose. Feels like everything has slowed down even the working world.

Cooked dinners gone cold when I'm really hungry so I can eat real fast.

An ice cold beer and a joint after a hard day of working.

Seeing my dad reading the newspaper in the backgarden.

Dipping chocolate digestive biccies in tea. Heaven.

Finding a comfortable pillow.

Chirpy little birds tweeting outside the window just now

Removing a pair of socks that have tight elastic (saying to myself that I should have taken them off ages ago) or pulling out a lace from inside my shoe, especially if it's trapped right under my foot..... Shivers...

Waking up after being sick for a few days and realising you're fully better. You feel like superman.

Taking jeans out of the wardrobe and finding money in the pocket.

Blue skies.

patting the ears on my golden retriever and watching him stretch - very funny
getting up early on a Sunday morning and getting lots of gardening done
Seeing the lettuce and onions that I sowed recently grow
playing music and especially hearing a nice tune that catches my breath

Clean sheets, such a simple thing, it makes me happy.

Buying a new T shirt and putting it on for the first time

A cool feeling and very soft

The mammy is able to get cotton T shirts to be like this after a wash. I'm clearly a fool as mine never ever get back to the lovely state they were in when I bought them. Bought fabric softener but it made no difference, I'm doing something wrong

Shenshen

A cup of tea and a good book
A clean house smelling faintly of Nag Champa inscence
Cooking or baking something nice and then enjoying digging in
A purring cat beside me when I fall asleep
Usually followed by the cat being shifted to the bottom of the bed and my husband snuggling up when he comes to bed later


Reading through this, I realise I'm utterly boring. But what the hell, I enjoy it.

This video makes me wish I was a dog. They all look so happy!
Also, the cat had me giggling my head off!

Cat on a surf board! That is DEADLY!!!

Getting upgraded in a hotel. It seldom happens, but the last time I was staying away, for work, I was given a suite. It was a quiet night in the hotel, I know, and I stay regularly enough, but I was SO pleased.

LynnGrace

When you try on something new, and are happy with the fit and look. Lost a bit of weight lately, bought a new dress today, happy!

ShiftStorm

When you're knackered but you'd already made plans with someone and then that someone cancels

Walking barefoot through grass

Just scrubbed the downstairs bathroom and its shining like a surgical theatre.

Smells lovely too

Homemade burgers made by d'mammy. Can't be beat.
Also: Logging into FB and finding, through a mutual friend's status update, that your ex has gone bald.
I can't stop laughing. He looks like a potato!

Same thing happened to my ex-husband. I had not seen him for several years until he tried to friend me on Facebook. He had gone bald and I laughed my ass off for days.

The feeling you get after a long, intense run and celebrating your achievement with cocktails in the sun!

LynnGrace

Settling back with a nice cup of tea, and watching something light and entertaining on tv.

Ilyana 2.0

A freezer full of coolpops.

Whacking great big bunch of mixed blooms bought on the street on the way home for lunch. Just looking at them makes me happy.

Lime daiquiri in the fridge waiting for me after my walk in the sun....

My new silk shawl. ...it may look ridiculous to some but it gives me lots of the happies wearing it. ..

When I discover that one of my favourite authors has a new book out, and it's almost the weekend, a winning combination.

Dramatik

When I see somebody fall/trip in a public place :pac:

I have a rooster called Wharrgarbl, the dumbest animal ever to exist, just knowing that the gob$hite is outside pecking at his own shadow pleases me.

Hearing kids outside playing and laughing.
Waking up feeling sleepy and he hands me a cup of tea.
When the microwave popcorn pops all the kernels and doesn't burn.
Morning cuddles.
Submitting everything at the end of college with the happy realisation that you are finished!
When everything in the house is sitting exactly the way I like it to sit.
Getting dressed up for a big event!

A big bunch of anything yellow and purple with some green and it's like a visual happiness cue, the sight version of the smell of bread baking or coffee brewing.

Ducks! I love ducks.
