I’ve been challenged by Michelle at Lazy Day Project to make a list of 50 things that make me happy. When I first heard about it, I thought, “Wow! Fifty! That’s a lot!” But when I sat down to do it, I realized it really isn’t that hard to do. So here’s my list of 50 things that make me happy:

  1. My children – They are the reason I do so much of what I do. I truly feel blessed to be their mom each and every day.
  2. My husband
  3. Sunshine
  4. Springtime – It’s a signal of my favorite season being just around the corner…
  5. Summer
  6. Blogging – Even though sometimes I view it as “one more thing” on my plate, I do enjoy working on my blog. In particular, I love it when I have one of those days where I have a bunch of page views.
  7. Puzzles – Now that winter (notice winter isn’t on my list!) is on its way, we’ll start doing more puzzles as a family.
  8. iPhone games – I know. This one seems silly. But it’s true.
  9. Netflix binging
  10. Kittens
  11. Pizza
  12. Bacon – It’s sort of my comfort food.
  13. Homeschooling
  14. Thunderstorms – The really scary ones that interrupt the soap operas with radar coverage
  15. Correct grammar
  16. Being able to correct grammar
  17. Sunbathing
  18. Palm trees
  19. Road trips
  20. Being able to wear tank tops
  21. Cool pens
  22. My favorite coffee – I add extra sweet cream to it to make it even sweeter!
  23. Card games
  24. Dice games – My current favorite is Quixx.
  25. Writing
  26. Marvel movies
  27. This Bongo Cat video – Seriously, watch it.
  28. Lee’s Chicken
  29. Harry Potter
  30. Good pencil sharpeners
  31. Vodka and cranberry juice
  32. Rock concerts
  33. Remote car starter – I really don’t know why I didn’t think of this one as one of the top ten. Best. Christmas. Present. Ever.
  34. Christmastime
  35. Staples (the store)
  36. Using my Plum Paper planner – Prior to this, I had an Erin Condren, which I also loved. (If you want to know how to get a percentage off of either, let me know in the comments.)
  37. Happy mail (delivery day for online purchases)
  38. Heated car seats
  39. Heated steering wheels
  40. Mother’s Pizzeria breadsticks – It’s a shame that this isn’t a chain.
  41. Culver’s
  42. Hot showers
  43. Snuggling up in warm blankets
  44. Sleep
  45. Sunsets
  46. Hot tubs
  47. Shopping
  48. Dogs
  49. New haircuts
  50. Going to the theater to see movies

Now I’m going to challenge the following bloggers to make a post of their 50 things that make them happy.

    1. Thank you! It was a harder list to come up with than you might think. It was really great to stretch my mind to come up with all the little things in life that make life better. 🙂
