Things To Be Happy About

finding something important that you lost
a summer day in November
peanut butter M&Ms
rain on the roof
a sleeping bag big enough for two
a spontaneous hug from someone you love
Diet Coke
getting a gift for no reason
road trips
sunset at the beach
sunrise at the beach
getting a letter in the mail from an old friend
roasting marshmallows around a campfire
"Illegal Smile" by John Prine
riding the cable cars in San Francisco
a good workout
a great book
sleeping in
discovering a new restaurant that you love
tree-lined streets
carnival music

I must say I'm not a big fan of going to the carnival but there's something about the music that cheers me right up. you can hear it on the boardwalk too...and that's not quite so creepy :)
