Hi all

What are the little things which mean a lot to you and make you happy :?:

Here are a few of mine:

Stroking my beautiful cat and hearing him purr. When he first appeared 7 years ago as a stray, he had lost his purr completely.

Relaxing by having a long soak in the bath, with lots of nice-smelling bubble bath etc.

Meeting my friend for a chat, a good laugh, tea and cake.

Painting pictures and trying to improve my technique.

Walking through the woods near where I live.

Receiving funny emails and letters from my three young grand-daughters.

Reading and posting on here.

    Seeing two Cocker Spaniel puppies turn into 'real' working gundogs...

    Despite the efforts of the trainer......

    Talking to, and one day even meeting, 'special' friends......

    The support and help from people on this (and other) forums during my present 'issues'...

    All very humbling......
