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??

Saw a Hare out the back garden this morning. Watched him sniffing about and scratching at a tree for ages and then he toddled off through the ditch in to the field next door. The fecker nearly made me latell for work!

Was in the pub earlier. There was this old boy in the corner. Just sitting there having a pint.
He seemed to have the happiest look on his face. Happy and content.
Just him, his pint and the afternoon to while away. Comfortable in his own skin with his own company.

This reminds me of the time I lived in the countryside in cork, was getting ready for work one morning and looking out the window having a smoke and there were 2 rabbits going at it like well ....2 rabbits. Next thing another rabbit hops out of the long grass and upon seeing this new rabbit the good lady rabbit bucks the first fellow off and hops off with the new rabbit....pissed my sides laughing....

Ha, the countryside in Cork is where I am and I've noticed the local women behave in a similar fashion to your lady rabbit!

Relative quiet after the loudest night I can remember weather-wise. That today I can sleep, snooze, rest, eat... Bliss

After years (6 plus!) of the central heating not working right, herself always cold and everyone who looked into it bamboozled. A friendly services engineer spotted a problem, the pump was put on backwards!

The guy was very angry at first that for years this was missed by every person who looked at it! He even stayed 1.5 hours after 4:30 (on his own time) to make sure all the rads all balanced and everything was perfect!

House is so freaking toasty now! Can run the burner at over 20C LOWER than what it was set at before and the house is so much warmer now.

Have just won my second Competition in the last few weeks! Yayyyy.

. And actually when I got up this morning I was thinking of doing the local G.A.A. Club Lotto in this area I'm living in, which I would never do. I think I might now. Imagine winning a couple of grand..... Am gonna go look up online see can I find how much it currently stands at.

pension arrived. Phone banking automated is grand. Makes me happy to be able to pay my rent .

food for the day planned and only needs heating.. fuel in...

Well.. I looked out of the door just now. When I got home with the 40 kg sack of coal, all I could do was roll it out of the backof the car....

Realised IT HAD GONE..:eek:

But in my heart I knew what had happened.

Neighbours a few miles away have sheep up here and come up every morning. They are the kind ones who helped fix the water pipe etc and brought e kindling right at the start. They said to call if I needed anything..

Sure enough, the sack was safe and dry in the fuel bay...

Made my day brighter.. and they were so totally quiet the dog did not hear them

Shaking my head in sheer joy here.

Just knowing there is someone to care ...

Was waiting on the bus in the rain this morning and got a tap on the shoulder, random guy beside me offering space under his umbrella. Fair play to him! Made me smile.

Cats! Been an upsetting afternoon and I realise that two of my cats instead of snuggling in the bed with me are on the pillow by my head, purring and rubbing chins... amazing creatures! Been with me 12 years...two furry faces and golden eyes as near me as they can get!

Early bed here; rain music too loud, and the very skies are weeping now.

Blessings and peace...

This is my plan for the weekend too. Films, cat on lap, beer, coffee, hot chocolate (not all at once).

I had a busy weekend last week (epic booze session and gig) and this week's been crazy at work so I'm looking forward to winding down. It begins in 25 minutes.

Sunshine and birdsong in your own garden. Strolling around looking at the new growth with a cup of coffee in hand.

That's nice - a stroll in the garden.

For me its to wake up feeling I had a good night's sleep

Even though I'm retired over 18 years, I'm still happy every morning by wakening at my leisure without a bell, radio, or claxon telling me to do so.
