Ironically, I have not had a happy week
Have had a really rough week
But, today I am going to focus on the small things,
The things that usually do make me happy,
The little things that I enjoy.
Having a whole day ahead of me
With nothing that absolutely has to be done
Is the best.
I try to reserve one weekend day for that purpose
But that's not a little thing
Okay...little things......think..think..thinking
Singing along to music on the radio
Having my morning coffee
Driving by myself
Lunch with the gals
Playing with my puppy
Stroking my cat
Playing ping-pong with my boys
Savouring a strawberry cheesequake blizzard from Dairy Queen
Card night with my friends
Gardening in the spring
Having a cup of tea
Walking in the snow on a crisp sunny winter day
And then of course there's all the hobbies I enjoy
That's like a special category on its own:
Scrapbooking
Knitting
Cross-stitching
Card-making
Computering
Those are the things that make me who I am.
It truely is the little things that make life worth living!
ReplyDeleteSorry you have not had a happy week. Do love the mosaic - and there are plenty of things to make anyone happy - especially the cup of tea. My Nan used to say a cup of tea fixes everything. Have a happy weekend.

ReplyDeleteI love the way you posted photos to go with your words. It made ME happy. I hope you were able to derive some happiness from focusing on your list and photos.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you've had a rough week, and I hope this one is better. I'm catching up on things, and it doesn't sound happy. But I love your list of things that make you happy -- lots of those make me happy, too! And I hope you'll be able to find just a wee bit of joy in them again and very soon. Just know that lots of arms of warmth are wrapped around you, hoping to bring you happy soon.
