Here for the positivity! I'd have to say I get great pleasure in my 11am ritual of listening to radio four for an hour with a nice cuppa!

Just had a full night’s sleep after months of disturbed nights due to family illness. I feel like a new person.

Spending time pootling around the garden in the sunshine yesterday and today.
Luxuriating in a hot bath with a book.
Appreciating all the things that are beginning to show signs of life - Spring's here! I hate the winter ☹️
Being with my young DGSs, they're amazing!

Charleygirl .....glad you didn’t say pussy! grin Sorry....lowering the tone.

Increasingly a little ‘joy’ seems to be having a sit down when I need it ( note to self,must get fit.)
Completing a task or chores that I had been putting off,
Enjoying this present Spring sunshine out in the garden,
Seeing friends.

I will be happy when I stop coughing

Hearing my favourite songs when they come on the radio.
Birds singing.
Buying a new book.

My 2 year old granddaughter saying to me yesterday, "You're my best friend, gran." ?

A good book and a coffee or other beverage? as the mood takes me!??

Thebeeb Fri 06-Apr-18 20:51:43

A Cappuccino and a newspaper.
Daffodils
My bird of paradise with 3 blooms on.
My bed at the end of the day.

Waking up in the morning I go, knowing that I survived the night ?

The first sign and smell of autumn.

Teetime Wed 25-Jul-18 09:01:53

When the house is all tidy! I know that's weird but I really cant stand mess.

baubles Wed 25-Jul-18 09:09:33

Sunshine and a decent cup of coffee. Easily pleased.

Our 4 yr old (just) GS saying over the phone, I am inviting you to come and stay in my house.

Grandma70s Wed 25-Jul-18 10:34:03

Watching television in bed in the evenings (or any time, really).

Anything written by my young grandchildren.

I also agree with M0nica about the first signs of Autumn. There’s a time when the dew on the grass is noticeable in the mornings and the trees have a faint gilding. It always thrills me.
