Before I put away my winter coat for the season I slide a dollar or two in the pocket to give myself a little surprise the next winter. I usually forget that I've done it, and when I find the money, it makes my day!
What do you do for yourself that makes you happy?

Thanks Lacey and J Wright - I did by accident once, so now I do it on purpose because it makes me happy.
Brighton - I think that's brilliant! Once, when I was a little girl, I made a tiny "newspaper" (which was supposed to be written by The Littles) and slid it into the air duct in my bedroom. I know - I'm a dork. Always have been, always will be. :P I've often wondered if anyone found that thing and just threw it away or took the time to look at it.
Jesse - that would make me happy, too! :)
A hot, quiet, peaceful bath makes me happy :)
Sue - Thanks!
Ja'Nelle - That sounds lovely! I envy you! With my kids, the word "quiet" and "peaceful" have been cut from my vocabulary. They been replaced with "loud" and "rambunctious". :)
Shun - I also love nature walks. My husband and I once took our girls out for a spontaneous bike ride through a nature trail and my allergies nearly killed me! My eyes swelled shut, I was shooting off sneezes like a machine gun - it wasn't pretty. Nature has to planned and medicated for me to enjoy her splendor. *sigh*
Heather and Bundy - I'm with you both on this one; chocolate ALWAYS makes me happy. Forget the flowers, just give me chocolate!!!! :)
Mike - How awesome is that! Finding a twenty would make my week!
Thanks everyone!
Actually, I've got so much closet space, nothing ever really gets packed away...
What makes me the most happy is when one of my sons gives me a hug and tells me that he loves me. I don't know what it is about their sweet innocence (I have a 6 year old and an 8 year old) but looking into their faces with that glow of "I love my mommy," is the best natural high for me.
