Happiness A to Z--26 Things That Make Me Happy
May 20, 2016
“Now and then it’s good to pause in our pursuit of happiness
and just be happy.”
—Guillaume Appollinaire
Just for fun, I arranged this alphabetical list of 26 things
that make me happy. (Click on the highlighted words to go to a related post.)
- Animals. Companions, friends and teachers.

| Miss you, Scout |
- Book stores. New, used, online—I’m not picky.
- Chocolate. Yum.
- Drawing. Also known as sketching.
- Everglades. A new-to-me fascination.
- Family and friends. Both are indispensable to my happiness.
- Gardens. Here, there and everywhere.
- Hugs. Few things feel better than a really good hug.
- Internet. Font of information…and time waster.
- Journals. If I don’t write about it, did it really happen?
- Kisses. Mwaah! (That’s supposed to be a kissing noise.)
- Laughing. Right up there with hugs on the feel-good-o-meter.
- Massages. My back has been feeling a little stiff lately…
- Naps. Say zzzzz…
- Orchids. A dangerous hobby.
- Pomegranates. Counting the months until pomegranate season.
- Quiet. Looking forward to some after our bathroom renovation is completed.

| How do you like the new location for the tub? |
- Rocking Chairs. Rocking in one as I write this.
- Singing. Love to listen to it, love to do it.
- Tank. Need I say more?
- Underdogs. They have the best stories.
- Vacations. I’m ready for the next one.

Fun post! And a great way to remind ourselves of the many blessings in our lives.
ReplyDelete♥️♥️♥️ Yes!!
DeleteIt was fun to write! And yes, a good reminder.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a pretty wonderful list. Tank being one of the best. Hope you are enjoying your day. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYou happy list is almost identical to mine!
ReplyDeleteYou may want to re-think that tub location, though... although it may save time if you multi-task...
:-D
Debbie--Tank is right up there at the top of the list for sure! Hope you have a very happy week.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth--What, you don't think the dining room is the best place for the bathtub?! OK, I guess I'll put it back in the bathroom :). Hope you have great week, full of all the things that make you happy.
ReplyDeleteYour list is very similar to mine, although I've never been to the Everglades (I'd love to go someday) and I don't grow orchids. And I would have to put quilting in for the Q.
ReplyDeleteCheryl--I'm not surprised that our lists would be similar...or that quilting would be your "Q". I think you would enjoy the Everglades, too. Hope you get a chance to visit one day.
