but that would be compound, not simple...

Somehow, I just knew someone was going to say that . . .

ok, simple compound interest!! I love frogs. When they come out on our back porch, I try and swat bugs down for them to eat. My husband thinks I am nuts!![Automated by GetSmile]

Oh yeah, hot baths on bad days when I'm achy and tense. I just had one. Very soothing.

A perfect cup of coffee and reading my e-mails or the blogs.

Watching a movie with DH with my terrier cuddling with me in the recliner.

My kids all being home and eating a great meal with them.

Hearing my YD laugh at something. Her laugh is contagious!

Watching my daughters enjoy each other's company.

Looking at pictures of my family.

Reading a good book.

Oh and s** with my DH of almost 28 years. (We are almost empty nesters!)

I love going out to a piece of property we own, it has a beautiful mountain view. I like taking a sandwich and our drinks and sitting there eating dinner and watching the view.

My cat
Surveying my property after I mow it
Things that bloom and grow in my yard
Dragonflies and butteflies
Living in a small New England town
The local $2 movie theater
Reading a good book
Sitting on my screened porch

- having a good workout (just did that - I love the sense of accomplishment especially as I didn't want to do it!)
- Watching my 11 year old step daughter (who just came home from overnight camp) ask if she could buy with her own money a gift certificate for her grandfather's birthday to his favourite restaurant.
- Fireflies
- helping a neighbour by walking across the street to tell her in laws that their phone is off the hook and she can't get ahold of them - easing her worry
- good conversation with good friends
- perfect summer days
- September (my favorite month of the year)
- paying our mortgage off (DID THAT YESTERDAY!!!) - ok that wasn't so simple!

It is the tinest of things. Laughter and smiles from my teenager that seems lately to be well.....in love with theis girl! 15 puppy love it is just seeing and feeling there little motions that give me joy! Or the ol'days who knows! LOL Smiling when I see my hubby sharing his intermost thoughts. Watching the birds play in the morning along with the squirrels and nature just fits doesn't compete. My furbabies snuggling with me and staying by my side on a bad day. Kind of like they are saying (It is ok mom) (lean on me) Being blessed by God and getting a one way ticket up-stairs.....I could go on and on but it get mushier./

Seeing a 'wall' JC built with duplos
seeing UE actually connect two duplos (mostly luck)
Seeing a 'Y wing' GMC built wiht duplos

and embarassing enough..building a pyramid complete with sarcophagus, misc 'food' and tools for the dead, ancy door that actually goes in and out, and 'sphinx' to guard it, with their help, out of duplos......next time I want to add a 'secret room'
