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??

You brought back a memory, mikemac2. I used to work in Wexford, had to get the train to Waterford, then the bus to Wexford. The local station master phoned ahead for them to hold the bus if the train was delayed. That was real customer service.

Reminds me of the time a group of us were heading to Wexford to a party. All in good spirits, we got on the bus heading to W/Ford. I was wondering why the bus was taking a more inland route but brushed it off. Eventually we cop that we got on the wrong bus! We were heading for Waterford! The bus driver was so sound, when he finished his shift in Waterford, he drove us all to Wexford. What a sound man!

The train driver in docklands station in Dublin saw me legging it up the platform as he was pulling away but he stopped the train and opened the doors to let me get on. Pulled away and he stopped a second time as a girl arrived late too

Docklands drivers are so chilled and relaxed, they are like the bus drivers in the West of Ireland who wait for everyone

If you see any posters giving out over in trivial annoyances their train was late it was down to me, sorry

I got myself the new Stephen King book today in town, the last one on the shelf. I nearly puked with happiness:)

My mam was in the oncology day ward today and she put in Dracula fangs and told her nurses she's here to take all the blood back that they've taken from her over the years! It gave them all a laugh!

Great that some people can see humour in serious situations. I genuinely hope your mam has a speedy recovery and I wish her all the best

Father out of hospital today..He's feeling bad as he hasn't the energy to get up to all the Trick or Treaters !! I told him next year...fingers crossed.

Got the grass cut..definitely the last one of the year..

There are loads of little trick or treaters tonight. There hasn't been this many in years. They're all so cute and polite!

Off until Friday! Boom!

The youngest grandchildren trick or treating while it's still bright and, after "scaring us", coming over to give a hug with an 'it's okay Granda it's only me"

Taught the baby to shout BOO every time the doorbell rings. I'll probably regret it tomorrow but I'll deal with that then

I had my endoscopy and was told that I have a hiatal hernia. Then the missus comes to pick me up and tells me that the landlord we were hoping to rent from has backed out and decided to go with someone else, meaning another possible trip to the UK to look at places. Why is this in the TH thread? Because I'm floating about on a happy cloud after my sedation and nothing can touch me :pac: I've been told not to make any serious decisions for the next 24 hourss, so, anyone up for shenanigans?

Went to see Thor Ragnarok last night and had such a good evening with friends. Lots of laughing.

Colleague brought his four-month-old into work today for a few hours and she's the most placid, happy, chilled little bub I've ever seen. Just sat there smiling her toothless head off all morning. I was on babysitting duty for an hour while the work mate popped into a meeting and I wanted to run away with her, such a seriously cool little baby. Made my morning

I started my Christmas shopping today thanks to a post in the bargain alerts thread!

...Although, I fear my TH mention of Christmas this early might be a TA for some people.

....Sorry peoples in advance, I'm just delighted at how organised I am this year

Going to bed now to have a read of a book a fellow boardsie sent me through the magic of the Late Late Show thread here

Went for a walk in the woods today which may sound trivial but it was a big effort for me and something I haven’t been able to do for over 8 months. Took over an hour to get a couple of km done but it was absolutely amazing. I loved every minute of it

I have been pretty stressed out today and grumpy and then my cat climbed onto my lap and put his paws on my arms and snuggled into my chest, purring and falling asleep. I felt so happy and relaxed that I had a nap with him too.

Cat truly are the best
