Happiness

  1. A good cup of coffee. Used to be a good cup of coffee and a cigarette, but I quit that nasty habit, cold turkey, over 30 years ago. I don’t need fancy coffee, been a Maxwell House guy for a long time. Getting the water to coffee ratio just right, to suit you, is well worth the effort.
  2. Music. Listening to music, playing music, either one. Playing a little more than listening, but definately both.
  3. I’m happy to work. I love being on the water. I love being in the water. I can’t wait for the weather to settle down so I can go. It’s been really windy the last few weeks, not condusive to being on the water. Water temp is 60 degrees. The bare minimum I can stand these days. (with a good wet suit and a hot water system.) Getting older sucks. Years ago I worked in water down to 38 degrees. Sometimes, heading out of the bay, the boat was breaking a thin sheet of ice. Can’t do that crap anymore. Don’t know how I did it then.
  4. Having a good series to binge. Been watching Star Trek Discovery the last couple of nights. Also been watching Resident Alien. If you haven’t seen Resident Alien, I highly recommend it! FYI, found both on the Superbox, no subscription required.
  5. I have to stop at 5? I guess I better put this down, happy fun time with the wife. πŸ˜‰ Not exactly an every day thing anymore lol. But it makes me happy.

  1. At my age (just passed 85), the biggest “everyday” thing that brings me happiness is that I’m still alive and kicking!

    • Well congrats on 85!

      I’m a few years behind yet, if you stop now I can catch you. πŸ˜‰

      There are days, I feel the same as you. Just glad to still be here. When you start seeing those you grew up with, disappearing into the void, it makes you wonder. All we can do is take what we can get, and try to enjoy the ride.

  2. Hi Shelldigger. Great list. Full of fun, enjoyment, and exercise. And of course family.

    I think my list near the top would have to be my computers / internet to stay in touch with diverse and wonderful people all over the world doing grand things I wouldn’t ever have known about or experienced without the web connecting us for them to tell me about. The things I have access to learn now that I never did before, the entire world of history and knowledge is open to dig into to if I want to invest the time. Through the magic of technology I have met grand people including yourself who share with me a world of wonder and companionship that brings delight and joy. Best wishes. May you always get to do the things on your list. Hugs. Scottie
