I think that it’s so important these days to count our blessings and remember the things that make us smile. So, as I was reading a blog recently and I saw that the blogger attempted this tag, I thought that it would be a good thing to do! So here are 50 things that I could think of that make me happy (although there are so many more):
- My family & friends.
- My boyfriend.
- Exercising.
- Kittens and cats.
- Puppies and animals in general.
- Driving through the countryside near my house and taking pictures of the beautiful old stone and wood barns.
- Socks.
- Lazy days where I can snuggle up in a blanket and watch Netflix or read a book.
- Reading.
- Writing.
- Music.
- Shoes. Some may say I’m addicted to them, but I don’t think I have a problem.
- Sunsets!
- Lunch and dinner with friends.
- Movie nights.
- Girls nights.
- Cookies.
- Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Seriously. I could live off of these. If you ever want to take me on a picnic or make me a meal, skip the fancy stuff. Just make me a good PB&J and I’ll be a happy camper. (On toast, please).
- Reading fashion and lifestyle blogs.
- Watching YouTube videos. (MirandaSings/PsychoSoprano, anyone?)
- Taylor Swift.
- Sweatpants just out of the dryer.
- Long vacations.
- The beach.
- Hiking.
- Seashells.
- Warehouse 13. BEST. SHOW. EVER.
- Harry Potter.
- J.K. Rowling.
- SINGING.
- Dancing like a maniac.
- Early 2000s movies. (She’s All That, Bring It On, 10 Things I Hate About You… All classics!)
- Friends (the TV show this time).
- Detective shows. Including: Monk, Sherlock, Criminal Minds (just started watching this with my friends at college this past year and I’m hooked!), etc.
- Britney Spears’s music. I know the words to all her early songs and I have so shame screaming the lyrics at the top of my lungs when I’m driving and listening to her music.
- Watching vlogs. What can I say? I’m a snoop.
- Chai tea.
- Black coffee in bed. (The song, and the drink)
- Stuffed animals.
- Books.
- The smell of books.
- New paper and empty notebooks.
- Movies.
- Small bible studies.
- OLDIES MUSIC. I didn’t know the Top 40 was a thing until I was 11. I grew up on the oldies.
- Pipe organs that are ancient and take up entire walls.
- Ukuleles.
- Stained glass.
- Toothpaste. Oddly enough. (The DNCE song and the actual thing)
- Driving late at night when there’s not many other people out on the road.
Now, I would love it if you guys would list some of the things that make you happy! What are the big and little things in life that make you smile? I would love to see them!
