Looking at the calendar and seeing no appointments for the entire week; knowing I don't have to go anywhere!

I have to say yes to a lot of the posts, things I left out.  I'm so glad for all the happy answers.

Going out with my camera every day and finding some new place to explore.  My favorite subject is wildlife and birds...Bald Eagles in particular.  Taken yesterday!

@San Antonio Gal  Yes, the Asher House videos are amazing! Lee is such a hero, the love and caring he gives to all of his fur children is as genuine as he is.

Time with family and friends, family road trips to the beach, my dog, animals, singing at church, rereading a favorite book, watching my favorite movies and TV shows, eating my favorite foods. 

 

When I was working seeing my students have fun learning and accomplishing their personal goals made me very happy. 


@wilma   I am a retired teacher and some of my favorite memories are from a summer program that another teacher and I started.  The first one was a a pre K program. The kids were shy at first, but by the end of 5 weeks, they were ready to go and confident to enter Kindergarten.  Another year we had a program for 5th graders.  We studied Egypt.  Kids loved it ...especially the history and the ancient art.  Another class studied aviation.  They built and designed their own airplanes.  Every summer we introduced something different. Just thinking back to those days always makes me happy.  Years later I have run into some of my students and they always remember the summer programs.

My happy time/place is walking into the milk refrigeration room at Costco and spending as much time as possible. Smiley Happy

1. A really good haircut, exactly how I want it

2. Being with my grandkids

3. Walking with DH when it is fall

4. Seeing the first glimpse of autumn...a leaf turning, a pumpkin on a front porch

5. Walking in the Smokies

Just spending time with my family. I love it. We cook, eat, take naps and watch a movie or football. I really savor these moments.
