Best Self Card: List 50 things that make you smile

I'm supposed to be looking for work and prepping my kitchen and loo for painting. Instead I'm getting my hour of writing out of the way first, while doing some other things. Then I will get prepping and job hunting. It's the day before the long weekend. Nobody is going to doing much today on the job front. And it wont take me too long to sugar soap the walls. Clearing the kitchen is going to be the bigger job.

So I pulled a card from my Best Self box. List 50 things that make me smile.

This might be harder than I thought.

1. Kittens
2. Puppies
3. Cats
4. Dogs
5. Most baby animals (maybe not reptiles, but the fluffy ones, hells yeah)
6. Most animals if I can pat them (not reptiles however - don't like snakes)
7. Getting a seat on the train/tram during rush hour and the person next to you is not too smelly/mad/ranting. 
8. Finishing an assignment.

42. Seeing old friends after a long time
43. Sunsets
