Not The Trivial things that make you happy

All Hail President Murphy

Following on from the trivial things that annoy you, I hope we can start a thread on trivial things that make you happy.

I love pushing the button for the lift and the doors open right away.

Being able to walk straight down an escalator or up it without people standing in the way.

Being bale to sail down the driving lane and use the passing lane without lane-hoggers or slow drivers.

A good thread on boards.ie

when the bus is there as soon as i arrive at the bus stop or train as soon as I arrive at the platform.

when the parking spot that I usually park in in the local shopping centre is free.

What makes you happy??

The just eat app. So much terrible food at the touch of a button. It's disgustingly satisfying.

I was told I looked like the floaty one out of Miss Peregrines Home for peculiar children. Only getting around to watching it now and have decided very much to take it as a compliment

Oh dear Lord:(. Good to see you back here Graces7.

I love it when you come out of the supermarket, and the car you were parked nose to nose with has moved and you can drive straight out. It's the small things

Writing my best friend's birthday card. Gives me all the warm fuzzies.

Cold to the bones. A roaring fire in the stove and I'm using the dog as a hot water bottle, and still cold.

A day off work.

Relaxed for a few hours reading an Inspector Rebus novel.

Took the dog for a long walk while listening to Leonard Cohen's last album.

Now back at home watching a boxset with the dog snoozing away happily beside me.

1. Discovering that the Colgate 100ml toothpaste snapcap lid fits the annoying Colgate twist lid, buying 3 of the latter for €3 (Buy 2 get 1 free) in Dealz and changing the lids as I use them.

Today's price in Tesco for one of these is €3.75.

Dealz price. €8.25 saving.

2. Size 1 nappies for my 3-day-old. They're hilariously tiny, tiny, tiny. My 2-year-old in her size 6 make her look like a giant.

Getting into my own bed after having spent a few days with the inlaws for Xmas.

All very nice, but there's nowt like your own bed....and decent broadband.

Great granny got me scratch cards for Xmas, she gave me her wedding ring to scratch them as she says she always wins using it and sure enough I won 33 euro.Then she said with a completely straight face that her ring is still good after 50 years.

Couple of days ago: 2-year-old daughter offers me something across the table, I reach over to accept it and she pulls it back with a big baby roar of laughter.

Yesterday she was at a relative's table next to a jar of sweets, went 'ooooh' while looking and pointing to another room. I looked, she threw loads of stuff into her face and roared laughing again.

Today, she went to her aunt who had just arrived and got sweets for all of us, including the babóg, listing every name out. She then came back hands full with sweets, climbed up on the couch, and proceeded to eat them all in front of us. When we asked for sweets she nodded her head and roared laughing at us. Where did this child come from!

I managed to cycle up a hill that's been defeating me for the last 2 years today - in one go, no stops, no pushing. I'm still coughing a little, getting a good bit of cold, fresh air into my lungs on my 2 hour cycle today, but it was utterly glorious in the sunshine.
For anyone who knows the area, the hill I'm talking about is between Cuskinny and Ballymore. It's 80m elevation on just under 2km distance. Not bad for a morbidly obese 42 year old woman, I think.

I'm sitting at my kitchen table, getting started on a college assignment with books surrounding me; it's bright outside, the house is quiet and I've my favourite band on shuffle playing in the background. My two cats have decided they need to be near me this morning. One is sleeping peacefully on the table behind my laptop, the other is beside me having a little wash. I had a long phone call with my mom yesterday, and a very good sleep last night. It's just a quiet moment today but it makes me so trivially happy because I haven't had one of these in a very long time. I am feeling the most peaceful I have felt all year.

Excellent, lovely story there.
