Simple Pleasures

With Mother's Day approaching, I find myself thinking of ways I'd like to celebrate.  Do I want breakfast in bed?  No, crumbs and milk in my bed sheets a happy mother's day does not make.  Go out for brunch perhaps?  No, it'll end up costing more than I'd like to spend.  Besides, I'm trying to eat healthier these days.   How about a day at the spa?  Nice, but again, pricey. 

I always end up wanting to do the simple things that make me happy all the time, every day.  So, here is my list of what would make me happy on Mother's day:

  • Walking our dog, Buddy, together.
  • Taking a bikeride, a nice long one.
  • Going for a run, a nice long one.
  • Taking a hike somewhere pretty.
  • Sitting in my big comfy chair next to the window reading a book, with relaxing classical music on in the background.
  • Eating dinner on the backyard patio.
  • Reading the paper at Starbucks at an outside table (with my husband and Buddy).
  • Sleep in
  • Watching the sunset.
  • Taking a nap in the middle of the day.
  • Give myself a manicure.
  • Use that foot massager my husband gave me last year.
  • Wear comfy sweats... all day long.

I hope you all have a great mother's day doing exactly what you want to do.

Great ideas! How did you spend Mother's Day? I was very happy to sleep in yesterday while my husband took the early shift with our little one!

Nice list. I hope you got to check some of them off (and not just on Mother's Day).
