Little things that make you smile/happy

[Abby Normal]

You know the stupid little things.

We had a really warm/dry winter for us.  Spring was unseasonably warm and we've had 90+ degree temps in the last week- which is very unusual. It's cooler today.  

I'm sitting in my office with the windows open and a light, cool, breeze is blowing in and blowing through my hair.  Every time it does, I smile and think " This is awesome".

Best day I've had a work in a long time- and I'm not getting crap done.    I want to post a sign on my door that says "  I'm in a great mood.  Don't F'in ruin it"

Watching my cat sit in the window.  Talk about content...  He appears to be the happiest creature on the planet. 

Looking at Christmas lights (even though I am agnostic).

Watching baby birds fly

Seeing my daughter getting mad! She lightly grinds her teeth just like her mom.
Listening to my so trying to explain something and starts stuttering. Poor kid has his mom's speed of thinking and my diction! 
At 6:30 in the morning listening to the last trills of a nightingale while is still quiet.
My dogs beggin for treats.
The neighbor's boys- 2,4 and 7 acting all grown up.
etc,etc

The sun on my face.

A nice breeze blowing the curtains.

When my cat is upstairs yowling and I know she is about to trounce down the stairs with a stuffed animal in her mouth. She's so delightfully, predictably, weird.

Got home from a business trip last night, and my dog was more happy to see me than I think any living creature has ever been to see me. It was adorable!

Watching and listening to my kids.  their conversations among themselves is the most fascinating thing I've ever heard.

And truthfully, I don't think it's just my kids, I think listening to kids is pure joy.

Watching my cat play.

I feel happy when she curls up next to me and puts her paw on my leg, it means she wants cuddling.

The laugh of children playing outside now that the weather is nice.

Going to the beach.

Swimming in the ocean.

This is a bigger thing to me, however, someone pointed out that in spite of all the issues I can't fix on my 14 year old BMW. It is still running. I am grateful.

Good food always makes me smile. Especially new, different, or certain foods like raspberries. I'm also enjoying seeing flowers out at the supermarkets.

Watching my animals frolic around the house.  Seeing how content they are sleeping on their beds...or mine.

Sitting down at the end of the day with a cup of tea to draw, paint or journal.

Waking up on a weekend without an alarm clock after sleeping on freshly laundered bedding.

A shower after a long run.

We need to do these threads more often. This whole thing makes me happy

Last night I found DD in the living room, standing on a chair. She was reaching out her arms as far as she could, grabbing in the air, and jumping off the chair. I asked what she was doing, and she said she was catching fairy dust so she could fly She could see the dust floating in the air with the light coming through the windows just right and since it looked sparkly to her, she thought it was fairy dust. She asked me to join her - so I did. We had a blast.

My lilies and zucchini plants are blooming today. Lovely orange flowers.

I downloaded an app called Smule Sing! Karaoke awhile back and have been singing and listening to lots of amazing singers.

DS2 (4) waved goodbye to us this morning until he couldn't see us anymore. Cute.
