happy life

on a sticky note, i keep a running list of the little things that made me happy that week. here's a few.

drinking sweet coffee in the morning with winter sun pouring on my face
squishing 6 friends into photobooth at the mall
fascinating history lectures
a stranger offering me a stick of gum
laying in soft grass looking up at the sky
the day every spring my freckles come back
big, warm, loving hugs
...
running through the hurt
jmayer
having the heater under the sheets
a wonderful new lens
...
sunrise on the beach
long sister walks
ultimate in the sand
bike rides under spanish moss
french music, yes! coeur de pirate
banana muffins
antique shopping
exploring old buildings
squishing coins on railroad tracks
being with friends who know everything about you
bare feet
mowing the grass the first time each spring
my car irene
...
grandma's quilts
more sun than i can soak up
key lime cake
seeing the magic of ballet for the first time
wonder
falling asleep during movies
happy texts
hiking
