Inspired by Anna's list over at Veiled Glory , I decided to make my own "what makes me happy" list:
-A home with a maintenance man on call.
-ceilings that don't crumble and roofs that don't leak and walls without cracks in them.
-tile bathrooms
-tea pots with roses on them
-tea pots without roses on them
-lace curtains
-singing along out loud to the Christmas music at the store
-my kids singing along out loud to the Abba song that was being piped into the store at Kroger yesterday
-my new bedroom that does NOT also double as the computer room (in other words, it's PRIVATE!)
-chocolate
-popping over to vespers which is less than five minutes away
-hearing new music to old familiar hymns and liking it
-incense and candle light
-canted prayers
-icons of beloved saints popping out at you from unexpected corners of an unfamiliar nave
-old friends
-phone calls
-Wes coming home for dinner!!!!

those are wonderful things! i am looking forward to a better apartment soon myself!
Thanks for making a list! It made me happy, too. :)
This is a great list! I love that the kids sing along to ABBA!!
Really super! I'm so glad that things are calming down. I was thinking about you all earlier this week and wondering how nice it must have felt to *not drive* for an hour to church and for the DH to get home at a decent time. Congratulations on *everything*.
Btw, my word verification is "blentil." Are you planning soup for tomorrow or something? ;-)
What a wonderful list! I especially like #1 and the teapots.
I love your list!!! I can so see you singing Christmas Carols in the store :) I bet Wes coming home for dinner makes you the happiest.
