Mine is walking in the woods in autumn with family. Also watching reality tv whilst eating (too many)custard creams and a cup of tea.

Sitting in the sun on holiday, overlooking the sea and enjoying a cold pint with my husband

Walking my dog on a sunny day like today.
Dunking chocolate biscuits in coffee whilst listening to the Archers.

When a cat chooses your lap to come and sit on.
Ahh to be the chosen one! A rare treat!

Lying next to sleeping DD in her bed after stories. I do often fall asleep too.

Or sitting by my favourite riverside spot in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do and nowhere to be.

Being by the sea, in solitude if I've had a really busy/ sociable week or with DP/ friends/ family if not. No rush, no schedule, just time to walk and swim, think and recharge.

Walking through the beautiful cemetery near my house in the early morning with the dog and baby before anyone else is around and we have it to ourselves. Perfect peaceSmile

Walking the dog in the fields by our house when the sun is setting in the summer, will be even better when the baby comes

caperplips · 23/05/2019 12:01

a few days away with my dh - so lovely to have time together without the stresses of daily life

Sitting in the garden of a warm evening with a G&T. Doing yoga outside in summer.

Sleeping soundly for 8 hours with no ibs pain
Everything else would be a bonus

ElizaPancakes · 23/05/2019 12:56

Getting into bed when really tired, the sheets and room the correct temperature. I can feel a fizzy comfort feeling from my toes up to my head. I love it.

missmouse101 · 23/05/2019 13:01

Being left completely and utterly alone.

Doje · 23/05/2019 13:01

Right now, the fish finger sandwich I have cooking! DS2 and I have been swimming for an hour and a half and I'm sooooo hungry!!

llynnnn · 23/05/2019 13:03

having the house to myself! very rare occaision when dd's & dh are all out and I can sit in peace with a cuppa!

Sarahlou63 · 23/05/2019 13:06

Lying in my lovely double hammock, looking up at the sun through the trees and listening to the horses munching just metres away. I'm always asleep within moments.

soulrunner · 23/05/2019 13:08

A night out with friends when everyone is on great form and you end up laughing till you cry

JacquesHammer · 23/05/2019 13:10

Me and my daughter lying next to each other around the pool in our favourite holiday place with a pile of books to hand.

Bezalelle · 23/05/2019 14:17

On some Saturday afternoons DP and I make a "reading nest" out of duvets, and only surface to make cups of tea.

AndOutComeTheBoobs · 23/05/2019 14:19

Having a walk on the downs with DH and the kids, then having a glass of wine in a country pub, home for a roast dinner then chilling in front of the TV in the evening.

I attempt this regularly, it rarely pans out from start to finish but one section is enough 🥰

There's a wood near my parents house that at this time of year is covered in a blanket of bluebells and I love walking through it; the scent of the flowers and the earth and listening to the birds. It's privately owned so there's never anyone else there.

Waking up in bed with my ds and watching him while he sleeps.

Sitting on the beach with my dog eating an egg sandwhich.

Sketching by the river eating an egg sandwhich.

Sitting with a donkey resting it's head on my shoulder 😍
