Thank you Liz. I love when you ask, because there are always 5 good things.
For me it would be...
1. cycling with my hubbie
2. so tired that i cannot think! (great feeling)
3. little Milly's giggles..and am I doing it?
4. Boerewors (traditional South African sausage) and banana ProNutro (food from heaven when living in a country where you don't get these...yummie)
5. a warm bath...and the thought of tomorrow is another day! xx
1. Your blog! It brings me such sweetness.
2. My students
3. The smell of rain - just the smell!
4. Lavendar candles
5. Tall, bearded iris outside my door
:) the rain and the colour it brings and the beautiful smell and the cooling off feel of spring ...
Now that was confusing! I thought what is Amber's four leaf clover doing on Liz' blog? Then of course I realized, it had been yours all along! Sorry about the mix-up in my flickr comment :) Five good things today:
1) My period finally came, 8 days late, but I am so glad it's here now.
2) My husband is back home after having been away for five days.
3) Scrubbed the house, had a hot shower, and feel wonderfully tired and relaxed.
4) Was given a wonderful reference by my employer that brought tears to my eyes.
5) It is raining and it smells like summer, THAT makes me happy :)
1. the nest of birds that sits in the tree in front of my studio window.
2. a cup of rooibos tea
3. the comfort of a warm blanket
4. drawing. drawing. drawing.
5. being reminded to think about good things
1. the beautiful apron i got from you that i wear when i am out with my camera
2. squirrels frolicking on the trees
3. sunshine
4. ryvita crackers with guacamole
5. your good things, inspiring me to always think about my own and be grateful for my life
Girl, I totally needed your post above but couldn't comment...thanks for thinking of little ol' me.
lilacs ar looming over the screen of my laptop as i type this and are so yummy...
taking a walk in the deepest woods
in a storm
watching my son on his trick bike
in the bowl which scared me but
thrilled him
making peach jam
writing a poem
taking a chance
:)
Thanks for asking us to take the time to play!
1...A clay play day
2...getting to know a new friend
3...eating fresh strawberries
4...having loving, adoring kitties to pet and hearing their purrs
5...feeling very blessed to be here
A little late, so here's five good things on a Friday evening.
1. Reading your latin proverb on your latest post. Thank-you! I feel lighter and happier for reading it.
2. Enjoying a Becks beer while my husband plays hide and seek with the 2 and 4 year old children (aahhh, the peace of not being the one in the middle of everything).
3. Seeing my kids happy and healthy after being ill with a virus.
4. Knowing the weekend is here and it will be 'play time' with lots of family stuff, and crafty 'me' stuff.
5. The coolness creeping into the Autumn air. Makes me feel like being cozy and snuggly (rare for the sub-tropics).
Thanks so much Liz for your always inspiring posts. Sending happiness to you from across the globe :)
came across your blog through a friends and I adore it!!! Love the whimsy, the light, the art I see here. :)
