.... knowing someone that can always put a smile on your face.

........knowing that at the very least you are smarter than your dog. Unfortunately, right now my dog seems as though he graduated Magna Cum Laude at Harvard and I should be riding the short bus. :rofl:

today.....

Having everyone stick by you while you go thru a rough patch.

And Lizz and Mayhem getting married!

...my kids, being excited about going back to school.

talking to my husband and sharing a laugh

... going out with my wife.

...watching my son skate across the ice with a hockey stick in his hands.

"He shoots, HE SCORES!!!! IAKG's boy finds the net!!!" :D

I'm sure the assist goes to his mom for that goal. ;)

...knowing you're coming home to sleep in your own bed, even if it's late

Happiness is visiting a pre-schooler classroom and watching them as they study space. (A bunch of us ... ahem ... seniors ... went to visit a classroom with 3-4 year olds :) )

...listening to your child giggle.

...a chair with wheels for your work desk!!!! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

You're hardly old enough to be a mother, much less a grandma.

Happiness is being inside where it's warm on a very cold morning.

wegmans' pepperoni cheese bread.

Happiness is a warm bed and someone special to share it with. :boink:

Happiness is having a friend so good he lets you blindfold him and stick a vibe up his ass.

:D

With friends like that who needs...ummm more friends :p

:wtp:

Happiness is finding time to just be here at Pixies.

Taking a two and a half year old to see Disney World....the look of her face was priceless.

happiness is having too much love

Happiness is.

Happiness is going for a walk with my wife.

Being needed.

It sure would be. Feel as though I've been coming up short in that area lately. :(

Well I miss your posts when you are not here, IowaMan!!!!!!!!!!

A quiet afternoon on a porch swing.

Your two year old running to you with open arms calling for "mammmmmaaa".

having time to shower AND shave.

Going into work late, and knowing you don;t need to go in at all next week :D

Amen sista!

When you are there for a friend because of hard times.

Endorphens after a good workout

:D my pits were positively bohemian, and my crotch gives a whole new visual to the euphemism "bush" :p

Friends who make you laugh even when you are bawling.

... hearing the doctor report to the wife of a dear friend that the back surgery done on him was very successful.
