Simple pleasures


What are the simple things in life that really put a spring in your step?
Thought I'd start this to remind us all that there's only one week of January left, and that you don't need a million pounds to be happy.
So, three simple things, everyone.

1. The smell of the sea
2. Baby chuckles
3. A good cup of coffee

Re: Simple pleasures


Hmmm hard to narrow it down to three but here goes,

1. Hearing a simple "Hello" from people I love.
2. A walk in whatever weather.
3. That Sunday morning feeling.

1. Birds singing on a sunny morning.
2. Smiles and cuddles from my grandchildren.
3. The sound of the sea.

Re: Simple pleasures


1. The 1st daffodils opening in my garden
2. Domi putting his arms round my neck and saying 'love you Mummy'
3. Driving in an open-top car - preferably through woodland

Re: Simple pleasures


  • the delicate, perfect snowdrops in my garden
  • a bright sunny day (even it is cold)
  • the feeling of satisfaction after spending several hours at our local animal sanctuary and cleaning out the catteries. On Sunday I took some of my daughters new left over carpet for them to snuggle on.

Re: Simple pleasures


That's a toughie...
1) Hearing my kids playing and laughing
2) Snuggling up with a nice hot cup of cocoa and hubby on the sofa
3) Hearing the birds singing in the morning

Re: Simple pleasures


A cuddle and the words I Love You
a chat to friends on the phone
finding the happy ever after home for a dog

Re: Simple pleasures


Three things for me.

Waking up with my partner beside me and our two cats at the end of the bed
Driving my sports cars on a nice sunny day
Seeing my parents happy and healthy
