Oddly satisfying

What little things in life are oddly satisfying?

 

-Laying on my side with a stuffy nose and then all of a sudden POOF one nostril completely clears.  I love that feeling.

-Freshly laundered sheets that smell so good.

-The second you're alone and can toot freely after holding it in around people and giving yourself a little tummy ache....

 

 

Now you go.  It can be gross, not gross, whatever.  This board needs a jump start today!!

Re: Oddly satisfying

  • The crunch of freshly fallen snow under my boots.

    Dove chocolate melting in my mouth.

    Finishing a good book.

    Campfires.

  • Making a huge mess while cooking a really good meal and having my husband clean up. 

    Diving headfirst off the dock at my folks' cabin into water that is "refreshing"ly cold.  

    Sticking my cold feet on my husband.

    Bonfire smell on my clothes 2 days later.

    Grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

    They are even better when you take a shower and climb into a clean bed.

    THIS! I've had a crappy cold for a week now and this has happened to me more than once and it's so lovely!

  • taking a shower and climbing into bed for the night despite the crazy hair you wake up with. It's like the final "aahhh...." of the day.

  • sneezing.  Need I say more?
    No Siggy


  • Taking off my bra when I get home from work and putting on my PJ pants and a T shirt.
  • Drinking a really good latte out of a real cup. 

    Taking a nap on a rainy day.

    This, along with the removal of dress shoes and pants, and putting on lounge pants.

    *Deliciously warm chili in the winter.

    *That first day after the TOM when cramps are finally gone, and everything is "back to normal" (TMI? sorry.)

    *Putting on a pair of clean jeans with freshly-shaven legs.

    *Staying home sick from work, and finding the perfect mindless TV marathon. 

  • Sammy's exhuberant tail wagging & butt wiggling when I arrive home from work.

    Eating the food from my first grill-out dinner of the spring (I hope this day comes soon!).

    A weekend with no plans ... nothing to rush off to ... no major projects to complete ... just plenty of time to relax.

    A cheap bottle of wine that tastes fabulous.

    Finding exactly what you were looking for on a shopping trip ... on clearance.

  • In the fall when DH comes in from taking the boys on their nightly potty rounds and they smell like fall, crisp cool fur with that smell of a camp fire.  I love climbing into bed with them snuggled in and them smelling like this.
  • Kicking off the buildup of snow underneath my car and in the wheel wells and having it come off in one big clump. That is really the only good thing about winter.

  • When Popeye snuggles his face into my lap so I can scratch his ears.

    Seeing how excited Popeye gets when there is fresh snow and he can run free. He LOVES it!

    When I am get my hair cut and have the joy of both having someone play with my hair, and also having my hair feel really really fresh. (if that makes sense?)

    Flannel sheets.

    A hot latte and a lot of time to drink it.

    Making it to the end of the day and realizing I still have enough left over WW points to have a treat!

    Lots of love and continual explosions of babydust to my BG Besties! XOXOXOXO

    ohhh good call!  So true.  I hate those snow boogers (that's what my little sister used to call them.)

    Also, that first big spring clean out and car wash when the slush is finally gone.

    This made me laugh because I know that EXACT feeling!  And it is a relief!

     I also love the smell of freshly washed clothes and taking out a pile of warm clothes from the dryer to warm me up!

    Ooh, this is me! I have to restrain myself from kicking it off of strangers' cars in parking lots

    ripping off my bra the minute I get in the door

    popping a giant zit (however "bad" it is...once that baby turns white..AH!)

    having my clothes color coordinated in my closet

  • I'm surprised at all the bra flinging!  I don't like feeling so loosey-goosey and I don't even have that much to hang free.  Surprise

    Oh there are few things that I love more than this.  There is nothing like a nap on a rainy or snowy day!!!

    LOL!  I just hate the feeling of it!  I don't have much myself, but can't wait to take it off.  Maybe I need some new more comfortable bras?  : )

    I usually have a built-in bra tank on, so they aren't flopping all over....but for my DD's...they need air after a long day of sitting in my bra! :)

    Ditto.  I swear my DH never thinks I actually change out of them.

    This exactly.  I always have on a shelf tank over the bra for extra support (and coverage) during the day.  I do hate the feeling of them just hanging out there though.

     

    one more- Sunday afternoon naps in the winter while H watches football in the background .I've been taking Sunday afternoon football naps as long as I can remember, and I'm pretty sure I inherited that from my dad too ;) 

  • -The first bite of a delicious meal

    -Taking off work clothes and putting on sweat pants/sweatshirt

    -Taking naps

    -Curling up with my cats and watching a good movie

     YES! I love this!

    I also love pulling into a full parking lot with people circling, but the second i pick a lane to search for a spot, one of the first cars pulls out so although I JUST got there, i got a close spot right away. I know that makes me mad when others do it after I've been there a while, but I love it. 

    Sneezing.

    The first cup of coffee of the day just makes me smile. 

    When shopping, DH and I guess the total before it gets rung up, and I LOVE when I'm almost right on and he's way off.

    Love these!! 

    I love just swaying my hair and running my fingers through it after its cut, it just feels lighter and springy and it feels great. 

    And a delicious latte with time to drink it. I like inhaling the fresh smell of steamed milk and perfectly brewed shots of espresso each time I take a sip if I have the time. Especially when 1 in 3 are actually made right and not burnt.
