What Makes You Happy?

For the last day of Act Happy Week, I decided to ask the  Twitterverse a question:

What’s the one thing that can make you happy, even when you’re feeling crappy?

Twitter didn’t fail me. I didn’t expect it to. I got a variety of responses, which I was able to loosely put into several different categories.

Family

• NannyTweeting My babies giving me a hug and kiss….. or one of their belly laughs.  Makes my day.
• smallslice When my children laugh. That always makes me smile even when I’m not feeling so happy.
• robinelton What makes me happy? Sound of kids laughing, clean sheets, when the dog actually does “downward dog” with tail wagging
• TechyDad My kids. Hard to feel grumpy with the world when they act all cute & loving.
• FroggyPrinceMom Answer: Knowing that no matter how I feel, I’ve still been able to make my husband and/or son feel good/better.
• TheAngelForever Spending time with my family, especially if we are at Disney World 😉

Food & Drink

• unxperiencedmom Used to be pizza. But now, it’s a favorite show being on at night. If it’s a bad day, just knowing the show is on, I smile.
• multitaskingme sorry to be cliche but chocolate
• CedarStore A cup of coffee on a cool Summer’s morning, gently swinging on a porch swing!

Alcohol

• CheekySweetie an Icee. 🙂 especially if it’s a Coke Icee. Spiked with coconut rum.
• natannod a good run, bike ride, good music, knitting or/and a bottle of wine!

Missed out yesterday? Leave me a comment to let me know what makes YOU happy.
