There are just too many of them for me to list them on my profile page. 
Going to bed at night knowing I'll get up only when my body
decides to, not by the sound of an alarm clock.
Hearing the howling wind and rain beating on the windows while I am inside sitting on
the couch, warm and cozy, in flannel pajamas.
A bubble bath by candle light.
A phone call from someone I was just thinking about.
Receiving the first Christmas card of the season.
Spending the day cleaning the house from top to bottom, and then going out to a really nice dinner.
Having my grandchildren slip their hand into mine to cross the street.
Finding my favorite perfume on sale.
Going to a wedding and remembering the bride or groom as a child.
Buying ice cream from the "ice cream man".
Remembering the "good old days" with friends.
Young people who want to hear about the "good old days".
Shopping for Christmas presents.
Beginning the day with a freshly brewed pot.
The smell of pipe tobacco or new leather.
Watching snow fall under a street light.
Cuddling on the sofa to watch television with my grandchildren.
Getting dressed up for a party.
Saying something funny and making someone laugh.
A day all by myself at the mall.
Finding five garage sales all on the same block.
The smell of a freshly painted room.
The first few hours after leaving the hairdresser.
An evening without phone calls.
Everything to do with preparing for the holidays.
Long quiet times alone with my three children just talking and sharing thoughts.
And hearing the most beautiful words I can think of, which are ........................
"That's alright, take your time!!"
