Happiness is...hearing this: Have I told you today that you're the best thing that has happened in my life?

Happiness is ....... having such an Awesome devoted family and dear friends!

Taking my two Great Danes out for their walk

the truth is out there

Happiness is:

Visiting the local wild animal rescue center and volunteering whatever I can to assist in their work of transporting, feeding, caring for the injured Eagles, owls, Bobcats, coyotes.....

I recently took video of the coyotes and I howling (doesn't take much to get them going.) Hah! So damn awesome that!

I help out at the bird of prey rescue centre they do amazing work, me I love the Barn Owls there, beautiful birds

Taking myself out on a date...

Happieness
 

My happiness is having a great partner, great friends and family, doing the work that I love, my home, kitties, gardening, and enjoying the country life.

Happiness is... Being spoiled rotten with attention and devotion all day...
Happiness really hit when I realized I was mistaken, it was FRIDAY and not Thursday and We get Family Bonding time!!
Happiness continued when Papi called from work; we had a really awesome talk, and he made me feel like he sincerely listens and HEARS my concerns...we work things out together and have devoted ourselves to living a very healthy relationship and life with positive, healthy changes.
Happiness is...making plans with Daddi and when I asked "You're having too much fun with this?" Daddi's response was "Yes, YES I am!!" I love seeing Daddi happy and know he's having a good time, even if at my exense.
Happiness is...getting woke from my daydreams in a teasingly sexy way, which made me respond in turn...then being told I'm very provocative and the sexiest Woman they have ever known!!
Happiness is....feeling so empowered, cherished and ENCOURAGED to come out of my shell and let go of shame.

my happiness today.....

waking up early.....
the beautiful drive to work....
watching the sky wake up slowly...
being early.....
sipping my coffee....
listening to the morning call of the chickadee.....pure bliss.... <3

My big warm bed!

Happiness for me has morphed over the past year or so. i think now it is about knowing self and understanding who we are and how we relate to all those people around us. i have come to the point where i could pack up all the material i have gathered and send it away.
For me now all that i counted as precious has turned to ruble and dust. Relationships, people and love fill me to the top and make me happy.

Happiness is....the Butch Femme energy and dance. Adding to the happiness is when getting messages like this....It's invigorating to have a strong woman let me know what she wanted without words, but leading my hands, or hips or shoulders to where they needed to be.

I think for me, it's a lot of things. Let's see...happiness for me is:

Hanging out with friends. You know, just doing our thing, being together, and having fun.

Being able to lounge around and have music playing, watch my favorite shows, and do a little gaming.

And simply having good company

"prizes"
 

Happiness is...finding two little packs of powdered sugar covered mini donuts in the kitchen...one is about to become my midnight snack...mini donuts always makes anything/ everything feel better. :)

Watching my boy Fruitcake roll in the grass under the trees today.
I realized I felt truly happy.
It's been 8 months and I'm feeling like my old self.

my happiness today.....

sleeping late...for real late...til 7!

time for myself....

taking an epic hike

bringing my dog....

and not feeling bad about any of it...this day is a gift..... :)

Hearing the excitement in her voice
when she talks about her grandbaby
when she's cheering on the Spurs
when she's had a spiritual day
when she talks about us

Just for today....
 

Happiness was an early morning meditation by the sea and then watching the sun rise over the beach. The gentle crashing of the waves and that quiet space just before dawn while the world still slept was so restful to my heart and soul.

I may return at sunset.

Good news from someone I thought would forever remain in my past.

This is big and a great reminder.

People are resilient and really can change their lives for the better if they make a decision to do so and then follow through with it! For various reasons, it is the "follow through" part that holds a lot of people back.

I'm very happy for my friend! :)

Lately.... The wonderful conversations through out the days

Happiness Is......
 

My dogs laying on my lap. A beautiful sea - a Caribbean sea, Dolphins, activity, me looking at you with all the love in the world, my family, my friends and so much more. :byebye:

Happiness is ...
 

Coming in to work this morning and on my desk, I found a quart tupperware container with just a smiley face drawing on a POST-IT stuck to top of it. It was full of Beef and Cabbage soup. I immediately called Becky. No, wasn't her. Poured 3/4 of it in a bowl and put it in the microwave. Then checked with Rosemary but one of our secretaries said she is not in today. Then I thought, has to be Laura or my supervisor's wife who cooked it. Saw Laura in hallway on the way to supervisor's office. Yes, it was Laura!!! I hugged and thanked her! It is so good!! Ate a bite even before I stuck it in the microwave. I have 1/4 of the quart left ... trying to save it for later ... hmmm ... but probably will eat it sooner.

Right now is as good of a time as any, wouldn't you say? ;)

*heading for the break-room fridge in stealth mode with my bowl now*
They already saw me come out with the first hot bowl. And the ones who sit with the break-room door in their view like to pick on me and announce very loudly I'm eating again. :(

Happiness is......
 

Happiness is a cruise to some random places in the Caribbean.
Happiness is my whole family being in the same place at the same time.

Happiness is my dogs and my birds

head
Happiness is a warm fire and some good music
Happiness is puppies!!!

Being in the moment!
