Ten on Tuesday - Happiness edition



I admit that sometimes, I let life beat me up and I forget to take a minute to count my blessings, reflect on the good things and take a moment to enjoy the things that bring me joy and make me happy. Carole's theme for today's Ten on Tuesday is all about the things that make you happy... perfectly timed with the recent events of my little world. I need to take a minute and just find some joy, care to join me?
  1. Listening to Hobbit mindlessly singing while playing with her toys.
  2. Hearing Pokey and Hobbit laugh and play.
  3. Having all the laundry washed, dried, folded AND AWAY!
  4. My mama's Zucchini Bread
  5. Weaving in the last tail of a big project.
  6. Surprise letters in the mail from people I love and miss.
  7. Bathroom love notes in my Sudoku book.
  8. Unexpected visits from the Starbucks fairy.
  9. Finding the perfect pattern and the perfect yarn at the same time.
  10. Buddy wagging his tail just because I looked at him.
Those are just the first ten things that popped into my head and already, I feel better.  I am going to make a reminder for myself - whenever things get to be too Eeyore in fashion, I'm going to take a moment and pop off at least ten things that make me happy... that will bust the drearies in no time!

  1. You just reminded me - I have to make zucchini bread tonight before they all go bad. I have a ton from our garden. Great list!

  2. What a wonderful idea to do that - I could have used that idea on Saturday! You've got a great list there!
