Right time to spread some positive vibes with things that make you feel happy.
I'll begin with a few of my own -
When the sun comes out after it has rained
A nice cup of tea (and a biscuit)
People who smile and say good morning
A brisk walk on my own with the dogs
Visiting my Grandma (love the spring in my step when I get near her)
A cuddle with the kids
Listening to a favourite piece of music

Okay I could go on but it would be even better to hear other peoples' happy thoughts as well!  

Sitting in the sun in my garden watching my dogs playing together on the grass

My wire  viz giving me a "wire cuddle" as only wires can

listening to music

when nice things happen to my friends

being with people i care about

watching Liverpool FC playing football

watching thunder and lightening and then the bit  just after when the rain stops

All these things make me happy

Finding a great bargain in the shops (best to date: A £160 Planet suit for £10 in a local charity shop - still with the tags on)

Claire

I went to Port Solent Sunday and watched the boats come in. The lock was operating and two adult swans entered the lock, waited until the big yachts came in (6 of them) and all the owners were smiling watching the swans. The lock gates opened the swans went first and all these big boats went at swan pace up the marine. Priceless and a wounderful moment.

The smell of freshly groomed horses

That and freshly cleaned tack!!!mmmmmmm

Thanks all who have been adding happy thoughts, reminding me of even more lovely things (yes I feel a Sound of Music moment coming on)
Gembo I love the postman coming too, I always think someone will be sending me a nice cheque even though it is always bills! Must be an eternal optimist. P.S. Congratulations! Hope you have lots of fun planning the wedding. 

Gembo I love the postman coming too
