What makes you happy in life?

[CoolPlayer]

Thought it would be nice to start a positive post so what things make you happy big or small .. some of mine are seeing the kids laughing having fun, gardening, tapas and a cocktail in the sun, having a weekend day of no plans, exploring interesting new places and ..sleep 😂

That sounds incredible! I'm going to try it.

Awwwww. Adorable!

Walking in forests.

Fishing - I love the peace of it, no rushing as you can't hurry fish, no phone distraction because have to keep watching the float, and the reward of tasty fish.

Walked along the coast from Flamborough Head last week. It was stunning scenery, good walking weather and just an absolute joy.
I've not been to the East Riding before and it was a real eye opener. Definitely returning

my dogs, the beach, the fact that I am early retired and can walk the beach daily as I live in a beach area. A good glass of wine, a good book and a long cool shower on a hot day, which every day is here

Being with my husband
walking my dog in nature (trees, birdsong, flowers)
sewing/dressmaking
A good TV drama
getting into bed in fresh sheets with a good book

I was in the garden today, reading my book on a sunlounger. This isn’t something I’d normally do, for two reasons: I’m not an outdoorsy person, and I live in Scotland with a north-facing garden!!
However the weather was gorgeous today and I was just lying there with a grin on my face thinking ‘oh, I’m loving this.’
I also had a garden nap, which was blissful. And had had my garden done on Monday, so it was looking all neat with short grass!

My family. Just spending time with my husband and children. Imagination games with my 4yo, cuddling my baby

Being out in nature - woodland walks, paddling in the river, salty sea air at the beach

Hot coffee and the crossword

Garden birds

A really good plate of spaghetti

Stone fruits

A really good book
