Non-Running Post - Remembering Things

I found a list last year that I titled "What Makes Me Happy?" dated 11/4/02.  I like the list and wanted to post it on here to remember it, maybe see it more often.  So here it is with some of my comments on how they relate now (not ranked in order of happy-making)
  • Mountain Biking - do not do this anymore, but know the joy it brought me through different times in my life and could see doing it again
  • Yoga - still love it
  • Hiking - do not do it as much as I would like
  • Watching the sunrise/sunset
  • Seeing a puppy play - I have a fond memory of Dexter when he was a wee puppy barely being able to crawl over grass, he basically had to hop over it
  • Eating yummy food - yay for dinner club!
  • Wearing comfy clothes
  • Pajama pants
  • Being at the beach, watching the ocean
  • Family 
  • Friends
  •  Reading a good book
  • Talking/having good conversations
  • Hugs
  • Sitting still/relaxing
  • Learning new things
  • Helping people
  • Laughing
  • Playing board games
  • Getting compliments
  • Giving compliments
  • Having time to do what I want
  • Sleeping
  • Kissing
  • Letting Go
  • Warm chocolate chip cookies
  • Christmas
  • Goofing around
  • Laughing at myself
  • Appreciating what I have
  • Remembering these things
  • and now I would definitely add K  :)
and of course RUNNING!  Just focusing on building my base long run of 6-8 miles right now so that I am ready to increase it when it is closer to race time toward the end of summer!
