Very good examples, I know what kind of joy your talking about.

Answer 5

Well, none of the things you mentioned are "everyday" things.  Just being alive and not in pain make me happy.  

Answer 6

Being with my best friends and my current partner.

Something that makes me extremely happy is my little 3-year-old toy poodle. Feeding him and sheltering him well during winter, playing with him and doing my best to make him happy. He is like a son to me.

Answer 9

A smile from a friend.  Anything unexpected that is a good thing.  Turkey salad from Honeybaked Ham.  Hitting a tennis ball against my garage.  Laying on the grass, under the stars, and taking a long, deep breath.

Answer 10

My favorite little thing, is when I come home and my 5 dogs all gather around my feet.  They do not want to go out, they just want to jump on me, bark and see that I am giving them my undivided attention.  They love to see me like no one else in my life.  They are so precious and have taught me more about love and unconditional love than any person in this world.  I just love my quality time with my dogs. They make me feel wonderful inside just to have them in my life.  

Thanks for reading!

Answer 11

my boyfriend, my poodle, working really hard to make a sale at my job and actually making it because I did everything right.  Having people come into my place of employment and ask for me to help them (that means that I made a good impression) my best friend forgiving me when I have been inconsiderate, when I start the day with an "attitude of gratitude."

Answer 12

When my kids tell me "I love you."

Fudgsicles (spelling?)

Birthdays card in the mail.

Popcorn still warm from the microwave.

Sleeping with the windows open- cool breeze flowing over the bed.

Bright summer colors on my toenails and wearing sandals.
