Ginger Beer Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I'm in a good mood today, I feel happy so I thought I'd start a happy thread and ask you all what makes you feel good? It can be anything, small or big. Here are some of mine: - Custard donuts - Coffee - Lying on my bed when the room is spotless - Stroking the cat - Deliveries - Hot showers followed by cream and cologne - Going to bed early - Putting my underwear on when I've just taken it out of the dryer and it's still hot inside. - When the sun is unbearably hot Think that's it, but post some of yours, I may like them. This thread has probably been done a million times too, sorry. Link to post Share on other sites

KathyM Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Spending time with my family. Beautiful, sunny warm weather. Freedom to do what I want, when I want. My dog, when she smiles at me. Driving or walking in scenic areas. Having dinner at a nice restaurant. Playing volleyball at the beach. When my favorite pro basketball team wins their game. When our bank account is looking good. Paying all the bills and still having money left in the account afterwards. Having my hair done, and having a pedicure. Buying a nice outfit. Getting a good grade on my homework assignments at school. When the dinner I made turns out really well. Sex. Link to post Share on other sites

thelovingkind Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) - the smell of black coffee on a rainy morning - finishing the last page of a novel, and putting it on my bookshelf with all the others. - when I've just finished getting ready for a date/evening out and I take one last look in the mirror and feel like pure confidence has been injected into my veins. - the feel-good buzz when a new plan makes perfect sense and murky uncertainty turns into a clear and promising future. - looking at pictures of superbly designed studio apartments, and knowing I'll be living in one of my own some day. - that amazing feeling when my thoughts translate themselves into words in just the right way at just the right moment - trying on an item of clothing that's reduced to clearance but loving it so much I would have paid twice the full price for it. - right after I've vigorously cleaned and organised, and my bedroom goes from a dump to looking like it could be from the set of a Hollywood movie. - the way my teeth look and feel right after flossing, brushing and mouthwash.

denise_xo Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 My morning coffee. That's sacred. Having lot of time to sit curled up in the sofa reading. Watching a good movie. Going for long walk in the forest. Good Asian, vegetarian food. Ending work for the day and knowing that you've taken a significant step forward. Talking to my pot plants. An LS member.
