Advantages: Better than being sad or miserable

Disadvantages: none

There are tons of things that make me happy but I will start with the things that make me really really happy!!

Top spot has to go to 'having grandchildren'. Wow I wasnt prepared for the emotional tidal wave that would cause. I would do absolutely anything for those two little people! The joy they have brought to me is immeasurable.

My cats make me very happy, they are such characters and always have lots of affection and unconditional love to give me. They make me smile when Im sad and comfort me when Im lonely.

Summer makes me very happy. I tolerate (and sometimes endure) the wintertime, but oh I am such a Summer person. I adore feeling the sun on my face, being outside most of the day (and evening). This winter has been so harsh and bitter that this summer will be all the sweeter.

This list isnt in a graded order or anything. Just random things and people that make me very happy.

My Autistic son maked me very happy. He lives independently, with a carer and has just sent me his first email, here is an extract from his very first ever email:-

"Hi mum Im very pleased that you can send each other emails back to each other. I have been looking up old pop video from decade of the 80s. I get the real pleasure out of it. Glad ur back on the mend everyones using the internet these day I love you mumxxxxxxx"

His spelling is brilliant but he never understood punctuation, bless him but I reckon that not bad from a lad who I was told when he was three would never read or write. God is so good.

Speaking of God, yes He makes me happy. Its a personal thing but He does. Im not preaching, I would never do that, Im saying it because He has answered so many prayers for me. He does exist, I know it for sure.
He also is the one that gives all the things and people that make me happy. I have so much to be grateful for.

Kind people make me happy, you know the ones, when you're walking down the street and someone gives you the most beautiful smile, just out of the blue. I want to run and hug them, they bring such happiness to people. Not much to give away, a smile, but it can turn a miserable day round.

Cooking makes me happy. I adore cooking. Come to my house and I will make you welcome and cook you something nice. I love trying out new things in the kitchen and coming up with new ideas for recipes.

Driving makes me happy. The car I drive is a little white Skoda (I know, I know, but theyre good little runners). It cost me £100 3 years ago and has hardly cost me anything since only the odd tyre and windscreen blades. When I get in it, I always marvel at the fact that I can move from one place to another flying down the middle of the road on a seat on wheels. Like some kind of magic carpet. We take so much for granted these days dont we?

Think Ive covered most of what makes me happy, of course my own kids do who are well grown up now. They make me very very happy, and proud.

I hope this review had made someone out there a bit happier too. After all, lifes too short isnt it??????????

Summary: Generally Im a happy person
