    clean white cotton sheets
    fresh bread
    a smile
    the sun streaming in my window when I wake
    a nice hot bath
    the sounds of a warm meadow on a quiet afternoon, the crickets and birds and bees...bliss
    a beautiful view
    sitting with a coffee watching the world go by
    sunbathing naked
    chocolate covered brandy soaked black cherries
    Hotel breakfasts
    chip butties
    sitting on the beach watching the sunset

    The rare mornings (like this one) where everyone is sleeping and I have the quiet house to myself. :bigsmile:

    receiving a kiss from my husband, playing with my grand kids, the smell of fresh rain, getting a phone call from my kids, going to church, and giving out smiles.

    My dog laying his head in my lap or his face against my leg.

    My cat purring.

    A really hot bath before going to bed.

    Turning in a big paper or homework assignment.

    Waking up on this side of the dirt for one more day

    ^^^ This. And:
    A good night's sleep.
    Curling up with a good book/eReader, especially outside.
    Respite on my porch or in the park.
    Photography. Writing. Digital art. Music.
    Any good day/hour/minute with my caree.
    Phone calls/lunch/chats with friends.
    Fresh produce and whatever healthy food hits the spot.
    The satisfaction of a good workout.
    Fresh-brewed coffee.
    Learning new things (like digital painting freeware).
    The flora and fauna in my yard.
    Clear nights when I can see the Milky Way from my driveway. Earthshine. Saying hi to the planets.

    Hearing my back porch screen door slam - reminds me of summers as a kid at my Grandma's farm. Also, hanging out my bed linens to dry, for the same reason.

    My cat curling up beside me in bed for some quality time.
    A hot shower on a cold day, or a cool shower on a hot day.
    A hot washcloth on my face.
    A preheated bed in the winter, with the window open crack letting in some cold air.
    A motorcycle ride - getting up to speed on the highway on a clear blue-sky morning.
    Finalizing a new paper project.

    Today's been a day full of small blessings.

    The smell of fresh cut grass
    The way garden tomatoes taste like sunshine and summertime
    Getting out right as the sun is rising for run/walk; it's so beautiful, peaceful, and I get my best thinking done then
    Reading the Sunday paper on my sunny deck with a hot steaming cup of coffee
    The sweet way my teens act when I do something nice for them (I made them homemade banana/oatmeal/blueberry muffins for breakfast)

    My 16 month old when he still falls asleep in my arms, OR when he runs up to me to sporadically hug & kiss me :-)
    Listening to some good tunes that are perfectly matched to my mood.
    Chilling out with hubby at the end of the day when kids are asleep.
