Things I like
JanetLG:
1. When my husband smiles at me, and his eyes smile too
2. Breaking off a whole strip of chocolate, eating it, then breaking off another one
3. Weeding - I have to concentrate so much, it's like meditating - nothing else matters
4. Thunderstorms (if I'm indoors)
5. Those huge red oriental poppies that flower the first week of June
6. When I'm designing a new embroidery, and I get to the point where it's starting to 'come together'
7. Listening to any Chris de Burgh CD
8. Spending an indulgent afternoon in a fabric shop that I've never been to before, and coming out with loads of 'possibilities' that one day will be clothes
9. Feeling the purr of a cat vibrating through my lap - the pleasure is infectious!
10. Hearing the first blackbird of the dawn chorus in early May
11. Sitting in front of an open fire, and just watching the flames
