You know, things that energize you and make you happy inside? Reading a good book or blogging gives me the "me" time that I need. You can be energized by being around people or being by yourself. You are usually one type of person or the other. Of course, I love spending time with my family, but I really need time by myself, especially since this is a rare occurrence. Here are some of my other "me fillers":1- Shopping a great sale or finding a wonderful "treasure"
2- Going to Starbucks The music, the atmosphere and, of course, the refreshments are such a treat!
3- Going to the movies- especially if you have the theater all to yourself! Big Bonus!
4- Crafting and creating- What is it about buttons, glitter and beads that puts a smile on my face?:)
5- Photography- Taking a great picture and knowing that it will make a memory for me (or others) is an amazing feeling.
6- Spending time with animals- They give so much and ask for nothing.
7- Getting a package in the mail- JOY!
What are some things that "fill" you up? I challenge you to post some of them. I look forward to reading your ideas- they may become some of my new favorites!
Alot of your fillers are my fillers!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great list! Sounds like such simple pleasures but often they're the ones that mean the most.
ReplyDeleteMany sweet blessings!
Many of my fillers you listed~♥
ReplyDeleteI do like taking long hikes.
Watching a movie in my room with just the hubby and I holding hands~♥
Long drives.
Sewing-It relaxes me.
One more thing: Sitting in the morning sunshine for 15 minutes while having a cup of coffee all by myself~♥
ReplyDeleteI think your fillers are similar to my own. I would have to add looking at magazines and decorating to the list. I may post a similar post soon.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are back, sister!!
