 Topic: What makes you happy?
Posted: 07 April 2011 at 10:47am |

Apart from seeing two pink lines on a pregnancy test, what makes you happy?
I was thinking about this today whilst eating my freshly baked scone dripping in butter - even when the going gets tough there is always something that puts a smile on your face. What does it for you?
Friday nights at home with my husband, watching trashy TV with a glass of red wine makes me happy!

Great thread BG! I have lots too!! Despite TTC stuff my life makes me pretty happy I have a lovely husband, a great home & a pretty blessed life. Aside from those, a good glass of sav after a long day, a really super good cup of strong coffee! Cooking a fantastic meal, spending time with friends & family, handbags & shoes, chocolate, sun, being on holiday, lazy weekends, gardening!
It's great to focus on this stuff often rather than what isn't happening!

I have lots of things too
DH, Family, and good friends. My crazy Dog. Cooking, eating good fresh food from my garden and a nice glass of wine. Achieving goals big and small, getting outside and completing a project in the garden. The sunshine. Smelling coffee beans Mmmmm so so good at fixing the cravings I get (random I know LOL but it makes me happy that Im not giving in to drinking it). Holidays and sleeping in. Shopping (when I have money) and at the moment my litte flax seeds I planted thAT I thought were not going to do anything but are now (after weeks and weeks) starting to sprout! Awww my little flax babies LOL

DH (sometimes hehe), my black babies (dog and cat), having a good camera to snap happy times, coffee, sleep ins, cheese, looking back at all our travel photos, shopping oh how shopping makes me happy - we purchased a plasma TV on the weekend what a great feeling that was! Plans working out is a biggie - we have been very lucky this year our wedding was amazing thanks to all my planning hehe. Now all we need to top off this super year so far is a wee bubba on board.

Shopping for sure, but on a more "awww" level, watching my DF and stepsons potter around the place with the puppy following along looking at them adoringly. It's just too sweet for words.
Chocolate also does a great job of making me happy!
I am also with Curlysue about the shoes shoes & shoes, sleep ins and rain on the roof.
Wow looking at that, I don't seem high maintenance at all! hehehe

What a lovely thread BG - I have big warm fuzzies after reading what makes you girls happy!
Silly private jokes with Dh that make us giggle everytime, visiting family and friends overseas, shopping and getting a bargain, a glass of wine, relaxing holidays, Disneyland(!), walking up the beach at sunset, snuggling in bed with a good book, my little vege garden, coffee with a good friend, cute dresses, dancing like no one is watching, spending time with kids I've looked after and re-living the magic of my own childhood, cuddles, writing in my diary and last but not least.... OHBABY!!

I love my vegie garden... I love that I can pop outside and pick everything I need for a scrummy salad.
I get a really amazing sense of purpose from watching it grow and tending to it!
