Pockets of flowers managing to bloom on busy roadsides.
The earthy scent outside after it's rained.
A really good cup of (decaf) coffee.
Realising it's too warm for your big coat.
Cloudy apple juice.
Sitting outside without feeling like you're freezing your tits off.
Leaving work while it's still light outside.
A pebbly stream.
Mint choc chip ice cream.
Watching things bloom in the garden.
Baking for the first time in a very long time.
Washing drying on the line outside.
Seeing friends you haven't seen for a very long time.
Making summer plans.
The smell of a neighbour's optimistic April BBQ.
Small acts of self-care.
Feeling content.
I'm loving the lighter evenings right now and like you, I'm loving seeing things grow in the garden again x
