These Things Make Me Happy

The fabulous Kate at So Cal Runner Gal recently did a post, and I absolutely loved it, so I’m stealing it!  Her post was inspired by this question that she saw on Facebook:

My list right now would be…

• The way my hair feels, looks, and smells right after I leave the salon

• Cool nights and sleeping with the windows open

• Snoring dogs

• Smiling dogs

• Seeing muscles beginning to develop where there used to be none

• Falling asleep to the sound of a cat purring beside my head

• New outfits

• New jewelry made by my friend Shelly

• Vacation days and sleeping in–just because

• Planting flowers

• The year’s first blooms on Lucy’s rose bush.  I planted it at her grave in our yard the day after we buried her almost 5 years ago.  The new blooms remind me that she lives on.
