Blooms to cheer! Simple thing to be happy!

It  is almost middle of April. 

Spring flowers started to appear in plenty. 

Then there are rainy days. The bush just outside my kitchen window is full of yellow flowers. 

Yellow means sunshine, isn't it? 

I don't know the name of this plant. The small flowers  dancing in the wind is a beautiful sight. 

When doing the dishes in the sink, it is there to cheer me. They are letting me "You go girl!" 

They reminds me I just need to have a look to enjoy them.

I capture the beauty on my phone camera. Then gave it a frame on
Canva. It was more fun! 

Very simple thing to see the flowers just outside my window. 

Those flowers are simple, yet happy!!! 

Life of these flowers are short. Yet I think, the purpose of them is to make other living beings happy! 

These simple flowers reminds me not to think too much about the purpose of my life and other cI don't need to do big things to spread happiness.

Finish one chore : simple thing to be happy!

Who like to do the chores? Not really my favourite cup of tea.

Still, I do have to do laundry, clean dishes, vacuum the floors.... 

They are the things to be done, and it is life.

This week, I decided to start doing laundry on Friday evening. Didn't give it much thought. 

Took all the dirty clothes to laundry room. Sorted for one delicate load and started it. I let it go and didn't put them on the line when it was done. I rewarded myself to write a blog post instead!

In the morning, I placed that one load on the line. Then started another load and forget about it. Then, went for work. But, made a note to dry it in the evening after work. Sure, I did that. Folded everything and started with the next load of washing. 

While I am writing this one, the washer is still going on. I will dry them tomorrow morning. It gives a feeling of accomplishment. That makes me happy.

It is a simple thing to finish one chore!

It gives a feeling of one thing done well. 

That makes me happy. 

What is the one simple thing you did today that made you happy?

Give a gift without reason : simple thing to be happy!

I was just wandering during lunch time. The shop nearby was open and not crowded. I wanted to walk around and see inside. 

I felt like buying a small item for my work buddy. It was not considered as a gift usually. I didn't put in the gift bag or anything. 

Just handed it over to my buddy, saying thought you will like it. 

Of course, my buddy loved it. The smile says it all! 

It made me happy. I felt like I was appreciated. 

A simple thing, to be happy!

Clean sheets on the bed: simple things to be happy

Think of bed sheets

Just an everyday item. You just have them, you just use them. 

The cotton bedsheets are good for me.

I like to wash my sheets once a week.  What I like to do is wash them, dry them and then put them on the bed again. My sheets will be warm from the dryer. 

It is a treat for me to make bed with freshly washed and dried sheets. That is also one reason, I  don't open the cupboard to get a new sheet.  It help me to save time by not having to choose a sheet from the shelf. There is no decision to be made: just use the same one, and enjoy the warmth and freshness!

High five: Simple thing to be happy

This is about  work.

The day was scheduled tight for the afternoon. For one patient, scheduled for two fillings. 

She is a mom to a baby. Dentist is doing quadrant dentistry to finish all necessary work. Patient love to get fewer appointments. 

Good thing is the lab sent her crown early. It came during lunch time. 

Bad thing is we may not have enough time for cementation of crown and fillings.

Still we wanted to try. 

Cemented the crown first. Then started fillings. During the cavity prep, patient complained about pain. So, doctor needed to give the anesthetic. But, no problem: I anticipated it and was ready. While that freezing was marinating, we did the other filling. Then came back to the first one. It went well. 

We finished 10 minutes before the scheduled time. So, we did the scan for the night-guard as well!

Yeah! The team got a moment to high five! A small celebration of an accomplishment

Simple thing, to be happy!

Move a little : Simple thing to be happy

Every weekday is usually rushed. 

Once in a while, it will be good to know there is no need to rush out in the morning. 

It can be a late start at work or an off day. So the day can be start with a usual coffee. then there is little bit time to do exercise. 

Doing exercise is good for body and mind: experts will agree. 

Think of the feeling after half hour of brisk walking. 

If it is cold outside, search on youtube to find a workout suitable for your needs. I like this one, by Joanna Soh. 

It can be done in the home and in one hour you can have 10,000 steps! Awesome! right?

There are other low impact, no equipment, at home exercises are available on You Tube for free. 

The feeling after a small work out is really awesome!

It makes me happy.

Little talks, Little caring. Simple thing to be happy

It is Monday!

Work was slow. First patient was booked for 11.00 am. 
I was there by 9.30. Blame someone else to make me go there early!

I was going to have a awesome day anyway. 

So, I spent time in making the patient happy by making small talk. So, I know her two grandkids going to daycare. That way her daughter can teach her students online. I know how she keeps her TV on so that she can have some background noise while working. Isn't it a nice trick?

Her hubby is also working from home. He has to do a lot of phone calls. She told me how she manage to keep working while blocking hime out completely.

It will be nice to have little talks. If the person sitting with you is chatty, it is nicer.

small talk : happiness

Small talks makes you happy. It is a fun way to know a little about the other person and to share a little about you. Simple thing to be happy!
