I wanna know: What makes you happy?

I promised a positive post and here it is. This is a follow up to what annoys you, which wasn’t hit with as much gusto as I thought it would be, but then maybe nobody wanted to be as negative as I was asking.
So you’re job here is to find the positives in anything. I’ll get it started.
I love being off on a Friday night (It rarely happens, so there’s nothing better than hanging with the family and not worrying about having to work until after midnight).
I love exciting games that go down the wire with outstanding individual performances — that don’t go into extra innings or overtime.
I’m happiest when my kids have just fallen asleep at naptime and I can chill on the couch and read a book.
I like it when I see a random act of kindness — like the woman at the K.T. Woodman track meet who waved at me to signal me that she was leaving so I could have her parking spot.
I’m always impressed when an athlete is willing to talk after a tough loss.
I love it when an old-time favorite movie comes on TV that I haven’t seen in forever — like right now I’m watching A Fish Called Wanda. Hilarious!
I love it when I don’t have to cook dinner — whether it’s someone else cooking or it’s takeout or we go out. Nothing better than coming home from work to no cooking.
I love sitting at a softball game and noshing on my seeds, keeping score. It honestly doesn’t get any better than that.
Now how about you? Remember this is a positive one, so it would be wrong to dog someone out for what they like.
