These days all it takes is a great movie and a full bottle. In the winter I enjoy a heavy snowfall. 20 years ago it was a whole 'nother set of things.

Playing with my grandson, spending time with my daughter on 'girls days', a good book, a good film, time to just relax, cheesecake, chocolate, sex.

In no particular order!!!!

Spending time with my daughters, and my grandsons. My girls asking me for advice or just needing an ear to listen to them or a shoulder to cry on.

My dog Cody when he gives me hugs without me even asking, or giving me hugs when I do ask for them...and his having to have momma snuggle time on the couch or bed.

My dog Lacy when she's giving me kisses or just looking into her soulful eyes that say "I trust you completely".

My 16yr old daughter that still tells me everything that is going on in her life (a rare thing for a 16yr old girl)

My turtles when they look at me and just want my attention and to play with them.

Watching a scary movie, or a truly funny movie, chick flicks, and the underdog type of sports movies (which most of them are)

My chocolate milk.

that I found this website and my new friends.

Thanks for reminding me of one of my favorites Hope! I love hoping in my SUV, putting in a CD that I love and know most of the words, turning up the volume as loud as it goes and singing my brains out! I call it my music therapy! Plus all the windows down, sunroof open and hair flying everywhere (of course sometimes it makes it a little difficult to see):wah::wah::wah:

Books!

Sitting in a rathole diner on a dark rainy day talking with my friends.

Being intimate with someone.

Love letters

Big fat books pf poetry

Doing needlework or a jigsaw puzzle by the fire on a dreary day

Flying

Getting and giving presents for no reason

Hugs

Animals

Talking to a Certain Someone online all night and the way he makes me laugh and think about deep stuff

Text messages from friends

Tinkering with my photo editor

Being out in the garage alone making stuff with music on full blast and no cares

Cookbooks

Rainy days

Being up in the mountains

Being surrounded by beautiful things

Old houses

Antique stores

Junk shops

Getting valentines

Sleeping

Music

New nail polish

A Rootbeer Float really makes me happy.

southern yankee · Post by **southern yankee** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 11:52 am

this was truly happy to me. My dear high school friend is dying:-1 She had one request of me. that was to find a friend of ours. Who was born in the states but had moved to Italy. I had to give my friend this GIFT. It took many months to locate her. But when i was ready give up I FOUND HER!! The sound in my DYING friend's voice. Of how happy this had made her. This was one of the happiest days of my life. To be able to give her this gift. True friendship is a TRUE JOY:-4
