[CrankyOldGuy]

A Toby Keith concert with the girl!

[Holly.88]

- Waking up to check on three brand new kitties.
- Finding four brand new kitties!
- Noticing that the painful ache in my chest isn't so bad today.
- Strong coffee on the porch swing on a beautiful Sunday morning.

[Venus007]

Hot tea with honey and lemon when you have a sore throat

A dog dreaming while leaning against your back, the soft squeaky woofs and running feet

[stonebutchinpa]

.... Thinkin' of my baby girl, excited she will be here next weekend
..... relaxin' and watchin' football
......had a great time a breakfast with my best friends

[Starbuck]

Cuddling up in her arms, feeling her arms around me makes me feel safe
Making love with the light on
Occasionally taking mental command when we make love
Soft kisses
Feeling her soft fingers trace my facial features
Sharing an inside joke
Walking arm in arm and not caring what people think
Opening doors for her
Doing things for her
Watching her daughters
Forgiving her

This is in no way an all inclusive list, I just can't think of anything else at the moment.

[girl_dee]

Heading to the Bear's Den to snuggle in and have another peaceful night in Her arms. Hopefully the full moon won't keep me up, I can't help but gawk! :moonstars:

[Diva]

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life.

~John Lennon

The fireplace crackling and popping

Happiness comes in small moments these days....

Sitting on the floor playing tug-o-war w/my best furry friend of the past decade -- my mini doxie gal.

Listening to some soft jazz, a cup of warm coffee in my hand, snuggly blanket wrapped around my knees.

A bonfire on a cold night. Mimosas and hooka pipes with pineapple tobacco :)

My friends, a sushi restaurant, and an understanding owner who doesn't throw us out no matter how loud we laugh.

My nephews, their bright eyes and wide smiles and the way they climb all over me and talk all at the same time because every one of them has SO much to tell me about since the last time I saw them.

My father's hugs.

My mom's quiet company and rambling conversation.

A text or picture from my brother, always on the road making the money it takes to raise his family.

My best friend dropping by work to bring me dinner on my birthday.

From here on, i keep him in my prayers & always want the best for him..

[Rockinonahigh]

Happiness is realiseing that there really is someone out in the world that fills most of the list of things that you always wanted in someone,knowing the fue that are left dont matter.

[starryeyes]

Happiness is...

Having someone who loves you so much they sacrifice everything they have to make sure you are happy, and you are willing to do the same, over and over and over.

Happiness is having someone who loves you so much, they cuddle up with you and your dogs, and your ferret in bed and smile the whole night, never asking you to kick the critters out of the bed because they love them as much as you.

Happiness is just knowing you are complete.

:)

[PaPa]

Having rejections since January about practicum and internship sites and receiving a response of, "there is a lot of paperwork to go through to do a practicum or internship here. It is the same amount as an employee. There is fingerprinting, child abuse clearances, federal clearances, and more. Do you still want to go through with this? If so we will begin the process." I would take that as a, "Yes. If all paperwork comes back cleared you have the placement". Wouldn't you?? I am to call her Sunday and set up the logistics for Monday to begin the paperwork.
THAT makes me HAPPY. Waiting so long.....apparently this is where I am meant to be. Kinda feel like ahhhhhh. I am home.

[WingsOnFire]

being able to cover a sleep Peppa who looks pitifully at me because she wants desperately to be under a blanket.. any blanket...well a tshirt will do I suppose..
