I realized I’ve felt so stuck lately.. like years. Career was backtracked due to where I live. Being mom makes me happy but as you are not needed so much you need to find what makes you happy besides mom.

Lots of things are fun and enjoyable. Social time, meeting people, friends and dating. But I suppose being Cap dominant that stagnated career is tough. I’m studying my ass off and not dating or talking to guys unless they are friends & am so much happier. Scheduled my first test & somehow it feels so exciting & like the options are endless. It’s a lot of work!!! And I’ve been exhausted too 😂😂 but I feel back to myself, the person I was prior to moving to this place in the middle of nowhere. Interesting how much really is related to options & not being stuck. Oh that might be a Saggie thing too 🙃 and my adult kids are the bestest & the loves of my life seriously! 🙂

Someone asked why I wasn’t just coasting to retirement recently… hmmmmm I don’t think I can do that.. 🤪

Actively improving my mind, body and soul, really creates a solid happiness place for me.

creativity and constant flow of ideas and concepts for my brain to feed on.

yoga and eating clean for my body.

soul is mostly mediation, gratitude and exploration

I feel like my happiness is depended on me. I love my kid, and my family, friend, job. but those things create more of an awesome experience for me to thrive in when i'm at my best. because if i'm not at my best all of those things can be stressful and draining. Not always but they can be that.

Eating chocolate and then wild sex.

LOL! This but in reverse. Need that sugar spike for rounds 2 through 4 🤣

I'm a slave for the former and built for the latter. 😁

And again one could reverse those LOL!🙊🙈

Diddo! Now here's the real question, how do you like it? white, milky or dark?

(That was not meant to sound dirty....yet somehow it does😂)

I would say animal rescue stories. I don't love seeing dogs, cats, or animals in general left alone in the cold with no help. I do love watching people rescue animals in these situations though. A dark side of me sometimes think people take advantage of these situations just for the likes and publicity, but watching a helpless animal fully recover and be healthy/ happy actually makes me feel something inside for once.

I am happy when I give back to the community or help someone in need. I am happy when I am out with people, having a good time. I am happy when I create through work or hobbies. I am happy when someone praises me. When I see my cat, when a dog comes up to me wagging its tail...when I see kind children or people in love. I am happy when it snows, happy drinking coffee by the sea...

I thought I’d add other things that make me happy.

When I see the ocean

Cardio & the feeling of my pounding heart

Hiking

Exploring

Spending time with my kiddos

Those texts my daughter sends me “I miss you Mommy”

When my son asks if I’m okay.

When I’m in a relationship that just feels right & can be me.

Laughing

Live music

Road trips and cranking the music

Puzzles

When I try new things, and make progress.. like omg I did that

Time with friends where we talk about real things.

Going to the theatre .. movies or plays

I’m super grateful for what I have. A little surprised I’m so excited to work for getting my license 😂😂 but I suppose it’s about progress & openings not really about happiness 🤷‍♀️

My son

Working out

Mexican food - nothing like some soft tacos to lift my gloomy mood

Books - I've been feeling depressed lately and books have helped me retain some of my sanity.

Art - drawing has always made me zone out and get my mind off things. Everytime I'd pick up my sketchbook and draw, I'd be shocked that I've been drawing for 6 hours straight or so. I haven't drawn for a while now, I just haven't felt inspired lately. Hopefully soon.

Telling jokes - the stuff I find funniest most people don't laugh with me at.

Prolonged Marathon sex sessions - no artistry in being able to "pop" multiple times, more fun to drag it out for hours and piss the other person off.

Listening to music I like.

Spending time with family.

Painting faces.

Finishing a book

Talking bollox and calling it an Intelligent conversation.

Bloody steak and triple cooked chips.

Baking cakes

I like travelling, but it really is the destination and not the journey. Ever been on the tube? - about as much fun as circumcising yourself with a rusty bread knife.


“more fun to drag it out for hours and piss the other person off”

Lol

I was with two lovers that did this ... both Scorp moons!

What makes you happy?

When I have spare time, simple things like being able to watch TV, play sudoku, play some crosswords or even walk my dog...the simple things 🙂
