[imgoingtodisney]

What's your list of simple (inexpensive) pleasures?

 

[Steve H.]

What I'm about to do right now -- go home and play with my son. (...and it's free! )

 

[JC2]

Cuddling with my husband

Lounging in my comfy clothes and vegging

Mashed potatoes and gravy

 

[grinningghost]

Throwing on some sweat pants and my slippers, lighting a candle, wrapping up in a blanket on the couch and reading a good book. With my dog on the other end of the couch and my kitty sleeping on the top of the couch. Heaven.

 

[nativetxn]

Looking out at snow while warm and snug before the fire in the fireplace.

Laughing with my husband about nothing and everything.

Having my mother near me just one more day...or even one more minute.

Being able to come to the DIS and laugh and talk and cry with my "friends"

 

[Saffron]

Chocolate covered strawberries

A new pair of sexy sandals

Holding hands

Watching a special flower grow and bloom, checking on it everyday

Playing with my dog who makes me laugh so hard tears roll down my face

Taking a bath at night after a day of a lot of physical work, just relaxing in the scented water

Walking on the beach, near the water's edge as the sun rises, holding hands

Having a water balloon fight with my friend's daughters and laughing so hard that we have to sit down

Going to a festival or fair

 

[Jeff in BigD]

Off the top of my head - popping bubble wrap.
We actually buy it when the Stars are in the playoffs so we can have an outlet for the nervous tension. lol.

 

[Muffin]

Watching a sunset

 

[catsrule]

rubbing Simba's belly

 

[CamColt]

Dising
Chocolate
Taking a candlelit jacuzzi with a nice drink in hand

 

[sammi]

Having a relaxing bubble bath and then into bed with a good book and both my cats laying with me while the snow comes down in the winter or the rain falling down in the summer outside my window.

Another special moment for me is having my DS's and their partners in the house for a holiday meal and listening to the laughter and the house feeling like a "home".I love the feeling of a house filled with laughter.

LOL Boy I could think of tons.

One of my most relaxing times has been on Marco Island and waking up to make a tea and then out onto the balcony (in my jammies too) to watch the dolphins play or in the evening when I would go out onto the balcony by myself and just lay on the lounge chair, listening to the ocean's waves lapping on the shore and watching the full moon.

What a great thread......thanks!
