The smell of earthy freshness after a rain shower in the summer.
Hearing the sky larks singing.
Sitting round an outdoor fire on a warm evening.

My son's erm... ecclectic taste in music! I just lay in the bath listening to him singing "Mr Sandman" in a 16yr olds breaking voice! Very funny and totally endearing! :love5:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

That I'm a 'kept woman' :lol: and don't have to venture beyond our boundaries unless I want to in this dreadful weather.

I'm very mindful that most of you aren't so lucky, so this isn't a brag but me counting my blessings

So am I but I was just about to say before I read your post - looking at the pretty winter wonderland and being pleased that we hadn't planned to go out anywhere, and being grateful that OH works from home....... :iconbiggrin:

Indeed, to awake to snow this morning, knowing OH if off till Tuesday, kids are off school, and I have done all my christmas shopping for food, drink and gifts, one smug git sits typing this.

No I won't use a smiley because I've decided to turn into Boboff, as he's turned all nice all of a sudden. Grumble grumble.

My daughter rang me at work to ask me to bring some sausages home with me because she fancied making sausage and mash for tea! :iconbiggrin:

My hubbie is redundant since I got my electric blanket, but I must say I really really love going to bed in winter now. Before the blanket I didn't want to go to bed at all, brrrrrr! :iconbiggrin:

Electric blankets are wonderful.............we just keep forgetting to turn the bl**dy thing on! When we do remember it's wonderful getting into bed and making all those noises like 'ooooh, corr, luvverly' etc., etc., and then hugging!
