Mine are: getting a text from a friend asking me how I am, seeing dog/cat/horse/other funny animal videos that someone's shared on Facebook, telling a joke and somebody actually laughing Grin. Oh, and chocolate.

Yours?

My OT bringing cup of coffee to bed every morning. He is away for a week at the moment and I really miss it. To me, this is a very loving and caring thing to do.

Outdoor swimming
I’ve dabbled in the past, but have really taken it up in the last few weeks
Riding my bike
Hill walking
Camping

Basically bring outside, immersed in nature.

Also, a good bargain!!
A card/text from an old friend
A day with no plans
A cancelled meeting
A hug from my children
A book I can immerse myself in
Seeing my mum

Sitting over coffee nattering to my teenagers

Fresh flowers (dh always makes sure I have them - daffodils then tulips then sunflowers!)

When dh and I finally get in bed he always snuggles up and says "nicest part of the day" except on Friday when it's "nicest part of the week!".

Cheesy wotsits

My dog falling asleep on my feet

Sauvignon Blanc

Your dh sounds lovely, weegiemum

What a lovely thread. I'm a bit of an eeyore so not easily happy, but mine would be...
*The smell of my pony, especially her breath and kissing her nose
*Being in the woods, riding or walking
*Seeing my dog smile when he's happy
*A really good cup of tea
*Coca cola and chocolate
*Macaroni cheese
*Using a perfume that makes me feel good
*Clean bed linen
*A good hair day
*An outfit that just really works
*Glowy skin
*Going to the cinema on my own :)
*Watching a musical at the theatre
*Lying on a beach, listening to the sea
*Radio 2 - especially Sara Cox
*Ticking off all my To Do list from work
*When our cleaners have been and the house smells all fresh
*The smell of leather, and petricor

My teenage boys all being home and safe in the evening (they have cars) and the house locked up. I can finally relax.

Clean sheets.

My son chatting to me.

My cat purring away on my chest.

My dog sleeping soundly after a good walk.

Resting my head on my husband's chest after a long day.

Swimming in or kayaking on open water.
