    For me, it's:

    -Hot showers
    -The feeling I get after a hard workout
    -Cat cuddles and purring
    -Shopping without using credit cards
    -The finish line of a 5K race
    -Catching up with out-of-State family

    AND
    -receiving second glances from others...*wolf whistles*

    - The satisfaction of a good workout
    - Hearing my 2 kids laughing, together, and not at each other (usually at me, but I can live with that)
    - Being entertained by my crazy cat
    - Trying on a new shirt....and realizing it's too big
    - Not missing Blue Bloods on Friday night
    - Helping someone get something off a tall shelf at the store (I'm 5' 10")

    God :) He makes me smile and laugh and giggle and think differently and wonderfully in ways I can't even describe.

    When I get out of bed in the morning and suddenly I feel something is different...i can reach around myself easier...or walk a little lighter..jump just a little..something is different but I only weigh on the first of the month so it's like a christmas present yet to be opened...but I know it's good!!!

    Seeing a brand new baby. oh boy!!!! or oh girl...:)))

    I love this! Perfect for a Monday...

    What makes me happy:

    -Shopping for new clothes in smaller sizes
    -Scrapbooking
    -The triumphant feeling I get after I've finished cleaning my house
    -My puppy
    -Movie/pizza nights with my husband
    -Finding decorating ideas for our new house
    -Making the last payment on a credit card bill
    -Hot bubble baths (I haven't had one in over a year. Our tub is broken) So... I guess it's hot showers lately!
    -Sleeping in on Saturday mornings
    -The face my husband makes when I've made something he finds really delicious!

    Awesome idea! I like to focus on the positive and be grateful for things, too. Some things that make me feel good:

    * my husband (my best friend!)
    * my family
    * singing
    * jumping off waterfalls and river swimming
    * reading a good book
    * bike riding...especially on a cool day
    * seeing the first butterfly/ground squirrel/migrating birds/etc of the year
    * walking and talking with God
    * and of course...dark chocolate!

    Happy thoughts and happy days to everyone!
  • Running....and holding my rabbit. He is just so darn cuddly!
  • Working in my garden and growing my own food...
    Seeing my pets (cats and dogs) happy and playful...
    Hiking in the mountains of Montana with my dogs...
    Resting in the hammock by my creek in the shade of trees, reading a good book and/or napping...
    Taking a sauna...
    Curling up in front of the fire on a cold winter's night with a good book and glass of wine...
    Growing flowers...
    Waking up naturally (not by alarm) ~ refreshed and happy...
    Good times with friends...
    There are so many other things that make me happy...so many...
