haha... well i was originally going to say 100 things but after the first couple of hours it got rather depressing trying to find happy stuff. I think 20's a good number for something like this. Of course if you have less then, by all means, go for it!Nineteen Eighty-Three wrote:Is it bad that 20 sounds like an awful big number to reach for?
Wow. I love that answer! haha...DestinyStarx wrote:20. my medication lol

1. Those moments where you feel so at peace with God.
2. Sharing 1 slice of cake with your closest friends.
3. The feeling of achievement you get when you do a good deed.
4. Slow dancing with your first crush.
5. Receiving heart-felt, handwritten letters or gifts in the mail.
6. Biting into a hard-shelled M&M and to be greeted by a flow of melted chocolate.
7. Listening to songs that make your chest feel so warm.
8. The blushing cheeks of a baby.
9. The scent of delicious home-cooked food.
10. Rereading all your favorite books just to remind you why those were/still are your favorites.
11. Talking about your feelings with your closest friends.
12. Starting out with simply doodling and coming up with a masterpiece.
13. Baking cupcakes and watching the plate gradually empty.
14. Those times where you humor babies and even if you look so dumb and silly, you don't care.
15. Making others laugh.
16. Looking out the window while you're in a moving vehicle.
17. Making the most unexpected friends.
18. When you're so into painting you don't realize you're scratching your cheek with paint-stained hands.
19. Being able to dress up as your favorite characters with friends.
20. Sunsets, starlight, and the pale swirl of purple, blue, and pink that is the sky.

1. Imagining the life that my fiance and I will share
2. The smell of spring rain in Washington
3. Reading a book so good you can't put it down till it's done
4. Picking baby names for future children
5. My pets. There are many.
6. My dog, Nevaeh. She rocks enough to get her own mention
7. Paying off a loan or credit card
8. Anticipation (of anything good)
9. My family. We all have our issues but in the end, we can overcome anything together
10. Jason's family. I love them to death and would do anything for them, as I know they would do for me
11. My friends who have stuck with me for so many years
12. The smell of cinnamon
13. Playing with babies. They really know how to enjoy the simple things.
14. A nice long, hard hug. Yup, love a good squeeze!
15. Crocheting. It's nice to have something to do with your hands so you don't feel lazy sitting around watching TV. And the feeling of accomplishment when you finish a project rocks!
16. Playing video games
17. Hearing a song that takes me back to a different place in my life
18. Remembering loved ones that have passed and all the amazing times we had together
19. Tattoos
20. Making a difference in somebody's life, no matter how small

I won't make twenty but this is what I love
A good book and a good cup of coffee
Camping with my daughter and grandson
Hiking the trails in the fall with the sound of crunchy leaves
The snow on the branches of the trees in the winter with the sun shining on them..beautiful!
Getting together with my kids and grandkids
My two cats
Getting together with my friends for cards and crazy talk
Listening to the birds chirping their thanks at my feeders
The forum..first thing each morning with my first cup of coffee it's me, my iPad, and the forum
