Happy Friday #2... 50 happy things...

Friday, 18 September 2015


Happy Friday everyone! How has your week been? So it is only my second 'Happy Friday' post and already I am changing bending the rules a bit! But with good reason! I was tagged by the wonderful Sarah from Daydreams of Summertime (who I am excited to see on Sunday!) to list 50 things that make me happy, and I thought when better to share this than on a Friday? It was so lovely putting this list together, it reminded me how it's the smallest of things that can make you happy, but that so rarely we make the time for! Hopefully this inspires you to carve out a happy moment in your weekend!

  1. Sitting on the sofas in the back room of our house with my family on a weekend morning (preferably in pyjamas)
  2. Listening to a favourite album through my ear phones while staring out of a train window and watching the world pass by

  4. Coming home to a tidy flat
  5. Running in the park, when the weather is just right
