Coming home from work to my dog's crazy wagging and vivacious "happy dance."
Finding my goofy cat napping in the bathroom sink.
Preparing to make lasagne and my husband sheepishly offering to go to the store to replace the cottage cheese he couldn't keep his hands off of.
Enjoying the harvest moon on a clear night.
Going for a bike ride on a beautiful spring day - with no wind!
Finding my best friend from high school on Facebook, after about a year of not seeing her there; then finding out she's now divorced from that scoundrel, and living with her first love from when we were 18. They met again, after 30 years, on Facebook.![]()

Simple shared "jokes" with a friend (Ian and I were looking at new exercise equipment, 2 pieces of almost the same thing but with subtle differences. he and I both looked at the one we eventually got and exclaimed "and it goes to 11!" at the same moment)
When my dog learns a new trick.

The smell of wine fermenting right outside my house (we finally started crush on Monday)
Spontaneous hugs from my boys

Coming downstairs in the a.m. and finding that DH has made coffee for me. Awesome.
Line-dried laundry. Watching my almost 2yo daughter go crazy over an ant on the sidewalk.
Life is pretty good around here!

"I rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a bike. It gives her a feeling of self-reliance and independence the moment she takes her seat; and away she goes, the picture of untrammelled womanhood."
