My rose fairy light, so pretty and glittery!
Friday night wine!
My local thai takeaway!
lovely soft pillows and rugs in this cold winter
broadband- anywhere anytime, who would have thought it 20 years ago!
My freezer great for ice-for friday night wine ;)
Internet banking-

Actually, thinking about it, there's loads of things I could list. Grin

Lovely firm pillows and mattress topper = good night's sleep

Looking at the sky just looking and seeing what I can see in the cloud shapes, very restful

Swimming & gin

(NO, not swimming in gin Grin )

Coumarin · 07/02/2015 23:57

Thought of another. Being up a hill or by the sea. Both places are so wide open and there's so much sky that it really calms the mind.

Horses
Munroes
Wine with my best ladies
Gorgeous husband
Amazing daughters
Munroes

The horses & Munroes have been the constant in my life - everything else came later. Hills & horses are in my DNA.
