This week Kate has challenged us to list our top 5 Simple Pleasures that get us through the grotty days in life and make us smile whatever the weather.
1.
Cheeky grins from my babies.
Every Mother’s sunshine – one big beam from either of them makes me smile back, even when I’m at my most miserable.
2.
Ten minutes with a good book.
For all I could happily read all day, just ten minutes to myself with no distractions so I could read a chapter of whatever book I’m reading would be enough to calm me & cheer me up.
3.
My favourite music. Loud.
This makes even hoovering at bit more fun.
4.
A cuddle with something furry.
Animals are used for therapy for a reason. I’m not fussy either – cat, guinea-pig, gerbil, rottweiler, horse, sheep, goat – Animals just cheer me up 🙂

5.
A walk in the sun.
Anywhere, any time. The fresh air does wonders!!
Beautiful pics of the littlies!! Smiling babies are life’s most glorious of pleasures! x
Those are VERY cheeky grins at the top of the post. Lovely pics
Lovely smiles! I thought your animal one said ‘I’m not a fussy eater’ on first read!!
haha…I’m not one of those either if I’m honest…!
yep, I’m with you on this list – LOUD music that makes the windows rattle and stroking something with 4 legs and fur gets my vote too!
Hoovering with music blasting = ACE. Love your list!
Those are SUCH lovely cheeky grins! Great list my dear 😀
