Happiness
Little things that make me happy -
- The smell of coffee brewing every morning
- My cats coming for cuddles
- Getting into a freshly changed bed
- Hot showers
- My scent - Shalimar
- The sound of a text message arriving
- Hugs
- A new book by a favourite author
- Singing along to the car stereo
- Clean plates all round when I've cooked dinner
- Getting a comment on my blog
- A brand new diary
- A long walk in the fresh air
- Freshly painted toenails
- Trying out a new recipe
- Frosty mornings
- Soup!
- Making lists
- The first day of a holiday
- Burts Bees Lip Balm
- Baking bread
- Using my Cross Ion pen
- The smell of a tack room - horses plus leather
- Finishing the ironing
- Thick comfy socks
- Being called a numpty by the Wildcat
- The moment when the film starts at the cinema
- Waking up ready for work - then realising it's a day off
- Having my hair washed by Tracy; best hairdresser in the world!
I have two new books to add to my list:
The thirteenth tale by Diane Setterfield - a wonderfully atmospheric and mysterious read and Don't sweat the small stuff by Richard Carlson - which is really helping me make some changes in my life!
I was really distressed to discover that Dr Carlson died December 2006 - he was born the same year as me.

Little things mean a lot - and your list is full of wonderful little things that I also love!
Thank you for reminding me how many of the little things in life I love so much, and how simple many of them are to come by. Being easy to obtain does not make them any less precious, and your post serves as a reminder that I shouldn't take such small luxuries in life for granted.

Those are all great things that make you happy. You reminded me it is the 'small' things that matter. And, as you say it makes you happy here's a ((HUG)) :)
This post has really got me thinking, I have been spending a lot of time recently feeling sorry for myself, and your last few posts have definitely pointed me in a more positive direction. I think I must put one of these lists together too.

now that's a happy list! An inspiration...
Richard Carlson wrote other "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff for Teens." What a gem of a book that was for B. I highly recommend it.
I love the list and the photo. Thanks for sharing both.
