Title: Little things that make life a bit better
Post by: jimmy jazz on Feb 26, 2023, 04:57 PM
Kind of the opposite of the pet hates thread.

For me, the first days of spring when the sun is out. It feels like optimism and new opportunity.

People you don't know who smile at you for no reason.

Good food 🙂 and an afternoon nap.

I feel like I'm getting old.

Naps are the best. A few months ago I got a recliner to put in the corner of my home office, and there have been a bunch of times since then that I've taken a 20 minute nap in it in the middle of the day. I don't really like working from home, but that is definitely one of the perks.

100% on naps. Though my actual job is part time, I'm still up and expending energy for basically 15 straight hours every day (not even counting my unwinding time) and my workaholic self was burning out so I started taking a nap most days to better preserve my health and sanity. It's done wonders for my stamina to be able to have that break.

Touching a cat's cold, wet nose.

First cup of tea of the day.

A dip in the sea :)

Time of year doesn't even matter that much.

Someone you love texting you silly memes to brighten your day right when work was getting you down.  :love:

I suppose not if you don't mind freezing to death - at least where I'm from  :laughing:

It's cold here too more often than not 🙂 I had a dip not too long ago and the water was 4 Cs which was slightly warmer than the dip before that which was closer to 0.

But even if you're standing in snow and there's ice in the water, who ever regrets going for a quick dip? Noone!

I'm the opposite more or less. I like the odd sunny day when it's the exception

When the day has been hot and stuffy and you're sweaty and then in the evening the cool breeze just hits your skin. It feels glorious.

When your head is fluffy cos you haven't shaved it for almost a week then you do and it's smoother than a boiled egg and you see all the hair in the sink and rinse it away. So satisfying  8)

Pictures of your friends when they were children or babies. Cutest thing ever.

I just want to pinch their cheeks.
