Hi Carla, I love your list of little things that brings you JOY. I found out it's all around us all the time if we only learn to live in the moment sometimes.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting a snow storm today and I'm sure that the children are all excited about that.
I love you too. Hugs

Coming in from the cold....yes!! The chill just started to set in here and the first few flakes of snow hit the ground last night. A simple pleasure for sure, but getting warm feels so good! That's a great one!
ReplyDeleteBirthday wishes? Happy Birthday sweet friend. I hope you have a wonderful week! Holiday hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteI've been browsing around in the archives here and just noticed that your birthday is TODAY! So I hope you will have a very happy birthday indeed!
ReplyDeleteIt's snowing here and I don't have to go out in it, so that's one of those joyful little things to me as well.
Birthday wishes and Christmas blessings to you, Carla!
ReplyDeleteAn awesome list of Joy!
ReplyDeleteI agree. The only good thing about the cold is coming IN from it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday - may you have a fabulous day. Sorry I have been slack in the Christmas cards this year - next year. Keep warm, guess snow means it's soon time for skiing for you!!
ReplyDeleteSpecial birthday wishes ...
ReplyDeleteGood wishes to - for this wonderful Christmas season - may yours be merry and bright.
All the best Jan

What a great idea, Carla, to have a Joy List to share with others and to help get through the dark, cold months.

ReplyDeleteLove your snow! We have cold weather but no snow..I'm hopeful that we will get some before the end of winter! :-) Love and hugs!
ReplyDeleteI love the joy list. We've just had a wee bit of snow so far, but it's very cold! Hubby and I both are battling colds/viruses. At least now I've an excuse to sit down and catch up a bit on blogging!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a nice birthday and enjoy your Christmas season! Hugs, Cheryl
