What are some of your favorite "Simple Things" in life? (Edited 10/12/10 02:18AM by Jess)

Yesterday was Sunday.....I woke up at 6 am and realized I did NOT have to get up for another 3 hours.....so, I flipped my pillow over to the cool side and thought HOW GREAT it felt to not have to get up and to have a "cool side" of the pillow. Here are some of my "simple things"
Cool side of pillow....sunrise at the beach (on the East coast.)...waking up, thinking it's time to get up and realizing you have HOURS more to sleep...FAMILY...making someone laugh...I want to hear your answers (take it easy on me...it is my VERY FIRST POLL!!!)

#28 \| 1286 days ago cubsgirl (+)	I love the sound of a train whistle at night the sound of my daughters laughing together Wrigley Field in July A quiet Sunday at home with a Stephen King book Going to an amusement park and riding roller coasters I love cooking huge dinners and watching people love every bite of it Chicago at Christmas time And to me the best thing is laying down at night and knowing that I tried to make a difference that day to someone, if it's just a smile to a stranger or a kind word to someone who was down. If we all did that what a world we could possibly live in. 8

#6 \| 1287 days ago Hiawatha (+)	Watching my kids getting along and playing in the yard. Its a rare day when we don't have to race to school, home, to bed, etc. An unhurried day with nothing to do is a blessing. 1

#7 \| 1287 days ago Shiloh884 (+)	The smell of rain The warmth of sunshine on my face on a winters day Icicles in the trees after an ice storm Watching the grandchildren's faces when they "see" something for the first time and are in awe Cuddling up on the couch with the grandchildren to watch a kid movie (which I absolutely hate, okay except Shrek and Ice Age) Taking a walk with my hubby holding hands and just enjoying nature 24

Waking up and wowwee it still day off Stretching considering getting up Rolling over and saying to myself....bad bad girl Reaching out and feeling some guy in bed with me (ok the last was a fantasy) Rolling over again and dreaming of some guy in bed with me OK i dont get many days off and am completely satisfied in that little thing. The rest is gravy, all the kids , sun, rain. food , stuff. So where is my bed. OH and some guy?

#12 \| 1287 days ago Cali_Kat (+)	The smell of clean sheets fresh out of the dryer. Hearing someone saying "Good Morning" and realizing it is. An ice cold Corona Light after a long day of work. Spending time with my daughters. 75

#13 \| 1287 days ago kantwistaye (+)	I love the smell of freshly cut grass or right after its done raining. I miss you spring and summer, please come back! Not getting waken up in the middle of a deep sleep. (Guess what happened to me today?) Finding a crumbled up dollar bill in your pocket. Wanting beer and then realizing I'm 21 now.

#16 \| 1287 days ago mongoose409 (+)	Well, I can certainly relate to finding some extra minutes of sleep in the mornings. But Lately on the job site, there are these two Whiskey Jacks,(or Gray Jay) that always appear when we stop for coffee or lunch, everyone brings food for them now and it's really nice to see them just a foot away from you eating a cookie or a sandwich that we give them, they have become good little friends. I could watch them for hours.

Friends on the Q that make me laugh everyday w/o knowing it. Waking up and realizing how blessed I am to have a wonderful life! 0

I love the notes and drawings my students give me. I love the smell of brewing coffee. I love kids misbehaving when they are out in public with their parents. 13

And mmm... coffee... and yes... when what was otherwise a lousy day ends up with me finding a folded sheet of notebook paper on my desk, and I open it up to read, "Mr. O____, You are a very amazing teacher. Hope you have a better day than today..." Those, and kisses from your dog, are some of the best "simple things" in life.

#25 \| 1286 days ago cuddles127017 (+)	The smell of an infant. The smell of rain. Waking up in the middle of the night to a thunder storm. Food cooking. (especially onions) Listening to the birds singing just after daybreak in spring time. Fresh cut grass. A freshly cleaned house. Clean sheets on the bed. Anything that makes me laugh. Having all my family together. 11

#26 \| 1286 days ago kobe_lova (+)	all of the above minus the teachers and my kid with her little legs running to me screaming mommy, waking up and breakfast is ready, being at home alone sometimes, having people who will always keep my child on the weekends...and then there's vodka, rum, grenadine, dvr's, caller id, music and host of other things that we take for granted. have a great day everyone. 87

#27 \| 1286 days ago sports_schmorts (+)	I love the cheese that is melted on my plate from a grilled cheese. I love the upside roller coaster feeling when something you really want comes along. I love the sound of bible pages turning, when the guy up front tells everyone to turn to a page. I love the sound of the ajamah of the crowd right before the ballet, or play. I love belly giggles, the ones that are contagious. I love the dimples in fat baby hands. I love the made up words that my kids use. I love the smell of the south in the winter. I love snow falling on Christmas day. I love 40+ degrees with no wind Halloween night. I love Ugly laughs. I love being barefoot. I love when my whole family is together laughing. I love taking pictures. 11

#32 \| 1286 days ago Shiloh884 (+)	I haven't lived near a train track in so long I had forgotten how wonderful it was to listen to them at night. There was one not far away from the house where I grew up as a teenager in Texas. I loved to hear it at night fading into the distance ..... thanks for the memory. zballa my step-son is in the Navy, he said the same thing! So did my Dad and older brother! 24

#34 \| 1285 days ago Shiloh884 (+)	You have that right zballa07. They are huge vessels but the quarters are cramped as are most of the passages. I've been on a few that have been decommissioned. One of these days (if I live long enough to be that fortunate) I will get to visit a carrier. My Dad was on several and the newer ones are even larger. Makes you appreciate shore leave! 24

#38 \| 1011 days ago MartinTide (+)	I love the feeling of a soft rain on my skin! The smell of my woman first thing in the morning when I roll over for our first kiss is how I like to start my days. Seeing my kid’s faces on Christmas morning is the reason why I really love Christmas now. The cold sensation when I take the first lick off of an ice cream cone on a hot day.
