To get back to the original thread
I remember leaving my ex. I moved in with friends. They had bought a new home but couldn't move there for about a year. They sort of gave it to me.
I remember having the "don't tell me that I can't do this attitude". I love physical work. I painted every room in their new home. Including ceiling since all rooms including the ceilings were painted green. I took off wall paper, repaired all the walls. They loved me, thought I was the greatest. Yes, this made me feel good, I even painted the outside of the house.
But
what I loved the most, was their son had autism. He idolized me, I loved to show him all of my mistakes, and how "we" could fix things, and that everyone makes mistakes.

Seeing a lot of sadness on here lately. Thought this thread might be a nice break from the pain?
So, what makes you happy?
Big, little, silly, meaningful, etc - anything!
--------
I love dogs. So much! Always happy to see you, always love you. Shouldn't be long until mine is with me again (please say a prayer or send wishes! She is with family right now). Can't wait to be covered in doggie kisses lol. And to hug her and pet her.
I love cooking. It's something I'm good at and have good intuition for. Also love making really good things for cheap! It is so fun for me.
I love music.
I love to laugh! So much! Sometimes it's all I can do when feeling too overwhelmed or anxious. It feels good to laugh.
These are some things that make me happy.

Spending girl time with DD.
My cats
Keep your athletes, dibs on Adam Levine.
A great book series.... My last one was the Black Dagger Brotherhood. Nothing but indulgent reading there!
I love theme parks, roller coasters & playing air hockey on a full sized table.
Rainbows
Guilty-pleasure tv.... Real and Desperate Housewives alike, lol!

Oh and speaking of rainbows....I'll never forget this! When I was a kid, I was in a plane and I don't even remember where we were going...but out the window I saw a rainbow that was like a bullseye, like this:

What makes me happy?
Weekends. Off work with no demands on my time. Nowhere I have to be. I work hard to get everything done during the week (shopping and whatnot) so that when I come home on Friday, I don't have to leave the house for anything, unless I WANT to. Most times, my car never leaves the driveway until Monday morning.
On weekends, I play with my fur babies. I read a lot in the recliner with my cat in my lap and my little dog resting on the footrest; big dog is on the floor enjoying a flavored rawhide chewey. I take a nap if I want to. I eat what I want when I want. I may do a load of laundry, but that's usually done one night during the week. The weekends are MINE, to do whatever I want or not do whatever I don't want.
