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??

This kitteh was abandoned but thankfully my friend happened upon her on the road and rescued her. She got the all clear from the vet. She's six weeks old and is going to live in a lovely new home. I spent all day Sunday saying: AWWWWWWW!

Finally getting some answers why I'm always so pukey and nauseous.
My dr thinks it's either my gallbladder or that I'm coealic. He is expecting results back today. So naturally, because today's potentially my last day of my favourite things in the world, I'm going to spend the entire day shoving as much of my favourite food into my mush. I'm going to have ice cream too. Just for good measure.

My new mattress. I hadn't realised how uncomfortable the old one had become until I replace it.

I practically purr when I get into bed now, I like my comfort.

I'm being tested for coeliac disease too. Small world!

I was tested, but told it was negative. My symptoms are basically bang on for it though so even my GP was surprised.

Another happy thing is that my deadlines for my 1st year at Uni are over on Friday

no (though you know me well that would literally be the best thing ever right now!)

He stayed with me all night in a+e, didn't go to work today to stay with me because he knew I'd be rising holy hell with being poked at and not listened to. No smart comments about me being whingey, brushed my hair and tied it up for me so I didn't have to bend my arm with a cannula in, hasn't slept and is still being nice to me and rubbing my feet. That'll be him done now til Xmas

He credits each new grey hair to me.

A stray cat has given birth to one kitten in my kitchen and has more on the way :O I might cry with happiness at the tiny little meowing thing.

I imagine your whole life is like a Whiskas commercial:)

Whiskas commercials have nothing on me. There are currently 9 cats in my house! (5 of them are new born to be fair). The furry little faces make me happy!

I just got an envelope from HR. (Oh no! What did I do?) "You have 335.08 hours of holidays to use this year." That's over 41 days!

Now I just need to find somewhere to go...

You're out and about on a cold winters day and you have a runny nose.

You search your pockets for a snotrag and either you can't find one or any tissue you do find has disintegrated into shreds of confetti and is no longer fit for purpose.

Eventually you check the back pockets in your jeans and not only do you find a pristine piece of tissue paper but it is actually warm because you were sitting on it. It's so satisfying to dry your nose with that warm tissue.

Trying on a dress in a store, not buying it and then going online to buy the same dress with a 20% discount.

Getting to the ESB bill before anyone else. (My bill goes to my parents' house) I'm behind with it but it's my birthday next week so should get enough cash gifts to clear it. Hooray!

Picking my cousin up from the airport tonight, he's recently had a bad accident but is recovering well after a spell back with his parents. Now I get a chance to look after him a bit instead of feeling helpless and useless and too far away.

I'm doing a good deed this afternoon. It involves relatively little effort on my part but it's really helping someone out. *basks in warm feelings*

My partners mammy makes me happy. She's the kindest person I know. She has three boys, but treats me no differently than she treats her own. She is boss. I love seeing her. She knows exactly what to do when I'm not sure how to be an adult anymore. Takes a lot of pressure off.

My boyfriends step mum is like this. She's amazing and would do anything for anyone. People like this make the world a better place
