WTMCassandra Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 A stack of engaging library books on a rainy day. A nap. Strawberries and real whipped cream--especially when I don't cut up the strawberries or whip the cream myself. Gazing at the lit Christmas tree at night. Relaxing with my laptop and wireless internet on the couch by the gas fireplace (cheap if you already own those things). Bread still hot from the oven (especially if I didn't have to make it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokotg Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 a magazine. I hardly ever buy them anymore, but when I do indulge myself I get all excited about sitting down with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaKinVA Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 1. When my husband does the dishes. 2. When my husband and I spend our "date night" looking at books and magazines in a book store (we don't usually buy, we just look :D) 3. A fire in the fireplace. 4. When my children make my bed, just because. 5. Taking a shower in a clean shower, that I didn't scrub. (Same for sitting on a clean toilet). 6. Quiet time I can scrapbook (which I haven't had since 1/1/08). That's just a few things, not necessarilly in any particular order :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
