Small things that make you feel happy

The fact that we had proper rain last night for the first time in about 2 months made me very happy!

There is no rain here. A lot of forest fires buring everything to the end of the world.

I am happy to have legs that can walk forward.

I am thankful for porridge

Having a swim in a cold east Anglian sea. Invigorating snd exhilarating.

Trip to the library today and will come home with a bag of new books.

3 nearly full again water butts after last night!!

A good new book.

Cuddles from a GC 🥰

The robin on my patio, from this year's brood.

When our two grandsons 15 and 13 rush in to see us with a big hug.

The cool air after all that heat.
Seeing my Dh smile (rare)
A visit from a grandchild
Knowing family are well and happy.

Discovering a new author on Kindle Unlimited that I enjoy reading and then finding that they have written a huge series of books, also available on Kindle Unlimited!

Seeing the grandchildren over the summer.

Clouds and cooler temps and the promise of rain.

A day at home with nothing urgent that has to be done.

Nanna8 - the cover sounds gorgeous!

Abitbarmy and Fallingstar - I know EXACTLY what you're saying!

Marzipan22 - AWWWWW! Robins are my favourite birds!

For me it's... walking and sitting at the promenade here in Whitby, scoffing an ice lolly, when the weather is freezing cold!

Ooohh- I love Whitby. I used to visit there quite often as a child because my mum’s twin lived in Bridlington. Something unique about the place,isn’t there ?

Cuddles from grandchildren always make me happy. A walk round the garden, barefoot, and watching the numerous birds feeding, including a pair of Robins, gives me huge pleasure too.👩‍🌾

Just had my bathroom floor laminated and it looks lovely. OK that’s a big thing, but the small thing is that I asked the fitter for advice on a previous joining strip he did in another room which has come loose. Straightaway he fixed it for me in two seconds. So pleased.

Hearing heavy rain on the window last night as I was falling asleep. The petrichor when I opened the front door this morning.

Well right now, the cooler weather and some rain, for the poor ground. I never thought I'd say that.

A good book, in fact I become almost irritable when books prove to be disappointing, I've had to shelve one recently after 100 or so pages, annoyed I've wasted the time. Also something good to watch. We've become hooked on The Morning Show, Apple TV, I wasn't altogether sure it would be my thing, very glossy and American, but I've been drawn in and look forward to how it unfolds. 4 series of 10 episodes, so a lot to watch. I also like understated programmes such as Ann Droid, such a clever premise.

Getting together with family.

Animals, my ndn, have recently acquired a puppy, I love hearing her little immature yelps over the fence she's such a dear little thing.

My cats purr.

Watching butterflies and bees in the garden.

Something easy for dinner

Phone call from DS and DD

A tidy clean house.

A trip out

Really I’m easily pleased and am lucky to be naturally happy.

I love bamboo socks.

Bassoues

3 nearly full again water butts after last night!!

I’m so envious! Still not a drop here - none for weeks on end!

An unexpected lie in till 8 o’clock. I forgot to set the alarm but DH woke and walked the dog instead and I never heard him go out!
