SIMPLE PLEASURES
I've been thinking about what I could make a post about this week. Nothing came to mind until this afternoon. Why not write about the simple pleasures that I have experienced recently, things that we take for granted, things that we just do without a second thought!

For example, just getting into your car and driving anywhere you would like to go.

Going to the supermarket, going up and down the aisles and experiencing no pain.



Buying items that are not on a list, just buying on impulse.

Not having to have someone present while you take a shower, just take one when the spirit moves you.

Go to your favorite hairdresser, get a great shampoo, hair cut and kibitz with the people in the shop.

On a hot night taking a walk on the beach and then going into a local "hot dog joint" for a Sinatra dog called "Have It Your Way."

I had mine with mustard, relish and sauteed onions. And to top it off, a dish of pistachio ice cream.

Spending an afternoon with friends playing Mah-Jongg - a little talk, a lot of playing, losing a little, winning a little and clearing the mind - not thinking of anything but "the game."

Being your own chef and bottle washer is great, you eat what you want, when you want.



I'm enjoying everything I make.

I even enjoyed something as simple as sunny side eggs. I better start watching the numbers on the scale!

What are your simple pleasures?
