Campfires.....could sit by a camp fire for hours

Swings! One of those big round swings you can lay down in and just sway.....in peace next to a stream

New headphones!

That feeling of newly shaved legs in fresh bedding straight after a hot bath.....

Heavy rain and wind when we are in our camper van, feel so snuggly in our bed listening to mother nature doing her thing

This is going to sound ridiculous but over the holidays, I've been working on an AI bot that can impersonate me in text messages. Yesterday, in response to a question, it produced a reply that sounded so much like me I basically spent the next 10 minutes smiling like an idiot in full view of the general public. Grin

Having time to sit and read a book, with nothing else I "should" be doing.

Yes! For me, it's playing Sims though

Drinking tea at exactly the right temperature.

Heaven

That feeling of exhaustion after a hard workout and knowing I made my body achieve it.

My 'achievement' is very slow jogging, via couch to 5K. Currently up to 2 miles now

When you... crawl into bed and your head softly sinks into the pillow and you know you can sleeeeeep.

Did that last night

Sitting down after blitzing the house, basking in that just-clean smell and admiring the carpet that is (briefly) free of cat fur

Putting my electric blanket on and getting in to a warm, toasty, newly made bed.

Eating something I can't cook myself at a posh restaurant. Eg tuna tartare!

Being home alone all day. Plus, The sound of silence. Heavenly.

Coffee or wine in bed while watching the Housewives or some such rubbish TV. Bliss!

Listening to the rain on the roof and knowing that I don't have to go out.

Getting all the washing up and cleaning up done, putting the dishwasher and washing machine on and then having a sit down, knowing there is nothing else to do.

That feeling after I've taken out the dirty / recycling bins.
