What makes you happy?

With all the stress of, well this political stress, I thought we could use something to focus on that makes us happy. Obviously or family or kids would be our first answers, right? :D So aside from that, what is something that truly makes you happy? Mine is a daily iced caramel mocha. Like if I don't have one, it can ruin my entire day. Yes I have issues. LOL! So share your happy!!
 
I bought a Kate Spade phone case that says, "Glitter is my Favorite Color"! I love it and can't stop looking at it! I was just telling my girls last night that my new phone case makes me happy :P
 
Hallmark Christmas movies make me happy. :wub: :wub: :wub:

My 2yo's adorable obnoxiousness -- screaming 'Mommy poop?!' whenever we buy toilet paper at the store & screaming 'You bes', Mama!' with a smile before then sticking one of my fingers in his mouth and saying, 'Tay-see! Ha ha ha!' both happened today.

Lol. I was just thinking about that. I am going out tonight and just took a long hot shower. One of the daily small but great joys of life.
 
I love Hallmark Christmas movies!! May have to see if one is on right now. That is so with your son. I would have died laughing. I miss that age.
 
Sooo besides family and friends......hmmmm My pets, they truly put a smile on my face like nothing else can. A hot shower any time of day fixes everything, and window shopping... I get so much enjoyment out of just looking at stuff (these days it's the sweet shoppe, makeup stores, and a small handful of direct sales biz that I can't get of looking at what they sell).
 
Christmas lights! Insane amounts of densely packed Christmas lights that move and blink. My favorite light show bit the dust last year, but I found this cheap little speaker that will make the 1,051 lights on my little 6 foot tree blink to the beat of music. Super exciting b/c honestly I thought it would be another couple years before that became a viable in-home option. Naturally, if they're busy blinking, I'll need to go get more this year to stay lit! I got it to work last night and I had a test strand dancing to Hamilton (only music on my phone - will need to fix that before the tree goes up). Also going to Diagon Alley.
 
My first cup of coffee in the morning
A good book
The first warm Spring day after Winter
A new bag
Hearing my kids laugh

....just to name a few ;)
 
Sleeping in!! I also love having a weekend day where I don't need to leave the house - I do change out of pjs but I don't fix my hair or put on any makeup.
 
Morning coffee...and the quiet that comes with it.
Traveler's Notebook pages
The girls' antics and giggles
The thought that next week is the end of the school year for my girls
My new Fitbit
 
Taking my bra off after a long day at work (just being honest here!)
Peanut butter
Christmas decorations, music, movies, smells!
Getting lost in a great book
Scrapbooking (for real! :wub: I just love scrapbooking)
 
These are so fun to read. Ya Sara I am with you! Loving ripping my bra off at the end of the day and setting the girls free from their underwire prison. LOL!

This was today on the mess that is my desk while I was working from home... she likes to be near me! Giving her a pat every so often is very therapeutic too!
 
being with my family (parents & brother's family included) is my most happy place
temps in the 70's
palm trees & sunshine
the beach
sunsets
pineapple, papaya & mango
avocados in season
coffee with my girlfriends
new kits & templates to play with
pictures of my peeps
pulling weeds
my cats
 
I may have to try some of these!! Decorating for Christmas is also something that makes me very happy. I get giddy and my heart is so happy when I can finally decorate.
 
When everyone else has gone to sleep and I have time to listen to an audiobook and scrap. (Or chocolate and peanut butter, but I'm trying to resist that one!)

Listening to my favorite tunes! Nothing like listening to Journey's "Don't Stop Believing." It is my power song and I LOVE IT! Music makes me happy!!!
 
Besides family ... a cup of hot coffee, chocolate, warm blanket and a good movie or book and this guy
