Well...only some of the things I love
[I could go on and on...]
being a mother
my brother's smile
baby animals
cuddling with my dalmatian, Jenny
swimming with dolphins
Marshmallow Crème lotion
feeding the birds
sitting 'round a campfire with friends
people watching
bunny slippers
watching people laugh
painting
volunteering
walks in the woods
learning my family history
hearing "Hi Mom! or Hi Gammy" when I pick up the phone
decorating my home
going on road trips in my convertible
working in my garden
coffee in my favorite morning coffee spot
picnics in the backyard
soft pale pink
getting a massage
a crackling fire on a cold winter's day
inner-tube floating on a lazy river
an outing at The Brazos Drive-In theater
a day strolling the Arboretum
Saturday morning estate sales
combing the beach for sea shells or tumbled glass
spring blooms
watching hummingbirds feed
playing family board games
finding a card in the mail from a friend that lives close by
a good suspense movie
strolling an antique store
the flavor of a good glass of wine
brilliant autumn's nature colors
the aroma of freshly baked bread
the sound of my *grandchildren's* laughter
being entertained by the imitation of "The Lady's Man" -Chad
dreaming of someday visiting Italy
the sweet flavor of Alaskan snow crab legs
waking up to bird songs
smells that remind me of my childhood
treating myself to a pedicure
any meal at Cracker Barrel ...of all places!
sunbeams streaming through the window
spending holidays with my family and friends
laughing with my Mom
a slow waltz
ladybugs
fun kitchen gadgets
spotting butterflies in my garden
working jigsaw puzzles
taking pictures
taking my sketch pad to the park on a bright sunny day
a good bargain
watching squirrels play
doing what I can to help others
neighbor's greetings from across the yard
memories of my children when they were young
the feel of high thread count cotton sheets
pink and blue skies
warm fuzzy socks
finding family newsletters in my e-mail- Lynnette
sailing across the lake at dusk
enjoying a rainy day on my porch swing
listening to and watching my son perform
playing Sudoku or Mahjong
collecting quotes
surprises
spending time with old friends
designing web sites
the comfort of these words: "donakay missa chickabee" -Danna [smile]
planning a party
surfing the web
chocolate dipped strawberries
planning things to do for my friends
hugging
American Idol TV night
naps in the park
getting comments on Gammy's House
Nicholas Sparks novels
trying new things
organizing anything
watching a live theatre performance
working on a fun craft project
the Oscars
the first sprout of my spring vegetable garden
memories of sitting on my grandmother's porch during a thunderstorm
the sweet face of a Yorkie
driving in the West Virginia hills
spending a weekend in a B&B
warm chocolate chip cookies
memories of catching fireflies with my brother
savoring the flavor of a triple extra cheese pizza
reading poetry
spending time with family and friends
Jenny's enthusiastic welcome when I come home
a hot cup of coco
summer breezes
bubble baths
