Oh, yes, love soft music after a long day.
Things that make my day or weekend:
*Texting my favorite cousin.
*Sunday afternoon baseball.
*Playoff hockey.
*Blueberry Whip.
*Hanging out with my siblings.

Re: Things that Make Your Day
Getting my Bodleian Reader card (Oxford University library) and having access to +3 million items, as well as to all of the historic reading rooms. I've been looking forward to this for years.
Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away ... my days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle

Oh my, oh wow, aileth.
And you know what makes my day? Hearing you say that you have obtained your Bodleian Reader card, with all its privileges and access. So wonderfully exciting!

Gasp! I had no idea!
One of the things that made my day today, and might raise a johobbit smile, is finding a nice little readymade salad at the small supermarket across the road from home. Mmm. Ah, and some hot cross buns! Anticipation of eating them both starting tomorrow!

Things that make my day:
*Reaching the halfway point in an extra long audiobook.
*72% dark chocolate.
*Reading a library book that I hadn't actually planned to read and enjoying it. Yes, I randomly picked up a book at the library just to have something to checkout even though I had at least 6 library books at home and now I'm reading the new library book instead of the stack I already had.
*Spring weather.
*Listening to Red Mountain Music's The Gadsby Project.

Re: Things that Make Your Day
Things that make my day:
It's gotten slightly colder for a while(but still sunny), so I can work outside doing more longer, I don't do well in the heat.
Hot cocoa/coffee
I got done what I wanted to today, with plenty of time left over for a nap and tons of leisure time

It's a very simple thing, but... cheesepuffs.
Also, having a recipe you randomly came up with turn out surprisingly well.
