15 Simple Pleasures…

1. Leaving your window open at night so the room is cold. Then getting up in the morning (with the room stil chilly), taking a shower, and sliding back under your warm covers (naked), pulling them up to your neck and falling asleep again.

2. Running to your door when you hear the ice cream truck coming just like you did when you were a kid, chasing him down, and buying a red, white & blue bomb pop (which I think has now been renamed the more politically correct “First strike capable defense missle” pop.

3. Running through one of those sprinklers that goes chug-chug-chug-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha, where the stream of water hits you so hard it could leave a bruise.

4. Watching a dog sleep until it gets those “whoop whoop” dreams and it’s little paws start to run.

5. Sitting in clover, watching the sun set on a summer night.

6. The first whiff you get when you realize someone in near proximity is having a charcoal barbeque.

7. Watching a thunderstorm.

8. The moment you wake up on Christmas morning.

9. Walking down to the farmer’s market on a foggy morning and buying a cup of freshly-brewed coffee.

10. Finding a really good sea shell on the beach, or the egg of a robin that’s already hatched.

11. Walking by someone in a crowd, and realizing you just smelled the same perfume your grandmother used to wear.

12. Smiling at a child you don’t know, and seeing them smile back.

13. Going into a gas station, buying a Ho-Ho, and eating it even though you know you shouldn’t.

14. Falling asleep with your boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife’s arms around you.

15. Hot tea, a cotton bathrobe, and a good book.
