I have been thinking about Solitaires simple pleasure list. I think it is something everyone should do. There must be little things throughout life that bring us pleasure. Today just thinking about my simple pleasures is bringing me tears.

1. A hug from my kids

2. A scratch off lottery ticket

3. A non fat sugar free cinnamon hazelnut latte extra hot

4. Watching my kids giggle and laugh

5. Camping

6. A kudos or compliment

7. Sitting by a fire

8. A rainy day with my cat and a good book

9. Coming home to someone happy to see me

10. watching the ocean


After thinking about my list i realized how many little things there are in life that bring me pleasure. I forget these things amongst the daily grind of life and divorce. I think the divorce is getting closer and I'm having even more regrets. I saw our marriage license and lost it, I thought of my proposal and smiled. I can love and miss my husband and wish we could make it work all I want but it won't change anything. This list won't change any of that but it gave me a different focus.. a focus of things that I don't regret, things to look forward to. Thanks Randy!
