Simple Pleasures
I know exactly what you mean. It's kinda doing nothing and doing something at the same time. I get some good "alone with my thoughts" time.
I spent the morning putting a fine edge on the blades of my zero turn mowers and then cutting my orchard. There is something very pleasant and relaxing about manual labor that doesn't require a lot of thought.
My daughter peeling her own head-on shrimp for the first time tonight.
SP - waking up to the snores of my old dog. I know this sounds weird, but he is not much longer in this world with me and each day is a blessing to hear those sounds.
Woke this morning to find my dog curled up and snoring at the foot of the bed.
A bad storm blew thru last night @ took out a transformer . we did not get power back for 10 hrs . we had the best time with the kids & their friends ........... I had forgotten how fun it was to torture them lol .
The cooling breeze just before a thunderstorm.

Coffee on the porch of my childhood home with my Dad. Just enjoying being together.
I do that sometimes when the Trooper is out of town and its stormy. Snuggle with the kiddo's in our bed. No TV though, we do not and will not have one in our room.
Our daughter's nearly 23 and on occasion she still curls up in bed to watch a movie with us.
I do miss those days. Not the same with a 19 and 22 year old...
Snuggle-bunnies with my kids~in mommy's bed.
Group of ladies over Sunday afternoon and we sat around the table coloring in coloring books, talking about swinging, and being served some amazing pina coladas by Mr.Sexus. It was so RELAXING! It was a whole afternoon devoted to simple pleasures and joys.
Good one Carrie, we slept with the windows open to hear the frogs in my yard this weekend.
That is a good one NavyP78. Right up there with getting an email from an old friend you've not seen in close to 5 years.
Staying up late to talk with some.good friends
Sitting, in the hot tub, listening to the frogs that have taken up residence, in my flower pots.

Fast cars getting outrun by faster cars, that look slow.
driving home across the Sunshine Skyway every day - reminds me that I get to live in my own little slice of paradise and lets me leave all the poo from work behind me...
Simple Pleasure of watching Lady and the Cub making S'mores for dessert.
Apollo's Chariot is my favorite, bar none.
Fun fact: Fabio rode on the inaugural run of Apollo's Chariot, and his "be-YOO-tee-ful" face was smacked by a goose whilst riding it. He arrived all bruised and bloodied in the station, to the shock of Busch Garden's staff.
Taking my 7yr old on her first roller coaster @ busch gardens.....the verbolten ......I laughed @ her gripping on soooooo tight ...but she did not scream or cry. @ the end she says ....i am not getting on that again lmao!
SP- A lovely afternoon nap with my man after a fun afternoon.
Seeing friends and family. Realizing how much you've missed them.
