New cotton socks.

Mmmm along the same theme, putting stockings on smooth legs.

Smart wool socks are a very close second to cotton

The older I get, the more of the things that make me happy are smells.

How old is that exactly? :er:

 

[ffarl]

Lol. EXACTLY 37. 38 in a couple of months.

 

[mishele]

Younger than I thought. I was thinking you must be losing your sight and hearing. Lol

Nap on a beach
hearing tree frogs on a summer night
when my 3yo grand daughter does windmills with her arms when she sees me
puppy kisses
Pixel's darn raccoons
typing in a script in AE and the moment when you hit the numeric keypad Enter and it is correct (incorrect a loud ding)
guessing the exposure camera settings and it was correct (doesn't happen that often, one day it will)

 

[Compaq]

The sound my DE razor makes when cutting bristles. Yup, I'm a whisker-whacker!

 

[pixmedic]

seeing what new animated avatar Pixelrabbit uses next.

 

[IByte]

When I see a few beers in fridge after a long day.

Hearing my beloved's voice when I first wake up in the morning (or any time, actually).
The hissing and bubbling that happens when I put the fresh coffee beans on in the morning.
Lying on our backs and counting the stars with any of my (grown) daughters.
Sharing a comfortable moment of quiet with any of the people I love.
Watching a campfire's flames die down to embers, and drifting to that special place that's neither here nor now and yet soothing and pensive.
The smell of a freshly-cut ripe watermelon.
The feel of the water catching the blade and guiding it forward. After several hours of paddling, the repetition settled into a meditative trance.
The sound of the bubbling stew which my wife makes on cold days, or any day we need some comfort food.
Fresh bread out of the oven, with a little dab of butter melting on it.

Looking at my garden makes me smile

I was going to wait until I got all of the weeds gone before posting a picture of the garden but we have come to a stalemate, they are contained in the pathways for now, the war continues.

Things that made it, lettuce, radishes, tomatoes (have had a rough go but I have some going well now), peas, beans, potatoes (about 100lbs worth), cucumbers (thought mine failed, went to get some starters and the garden guy said even the growers had issues, lo and behold all of mine came up and it looks like pickles will happen this year! woot!), cantaloupe and corn.

Rain on my tin roof
my son's laughter
Tall Trees......well I just love them
Relaxing baths

Mine is love. It is not adavanced favorisum. I think if we live in right way, we can achieve it as soon.
