Things that make you happy

Aawww, it's sad when they're getting old and senile but when my old yorkie Jack started with that, I think he was happy in his own little way for a good while, like he was just in hus own little world half the time. I still miss him he was a right little character for all his 15 years. He used to walk around the bed at night round and round, I ended up cutting the legs off so he could just climb on instead of me having to keep getting out to lift him on. Still got same bed 9 yrs later only 13inches off floor, including mattress so these 4 all just climb on and off ๐ doesn't do my hips any good though ๐คฃ. I got Jack a 4-wheel drive stroller so that we could still go to Delamere Forest which he loved, and used to take him in the butchers in it for a couple of sausages that he'd have tucked under him on the way home ๐ฅฒ๐ฅฐ.

@Catherine21 Oh wow I LOVE that film. Betty Davis was so funny in it but not really, proper pyscho horror- almost type film. I watched it just last year twice it was on. It always gives me the creeps but I still watch it. I love One flew over the cuckoo's nest, Jack Nicholson, brilliant film but very sad and same with the Green Mile. And Papillon Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman, and Castaway, Tom Hanks. Ooh and favourite Leon with Natalie Portman. And the Alcatraz films, would like to have gone to San Francisco to visit their.
I'm more into nice films though like Alvin and the Chipmunks Etc ha ha.

I'm so very sorry that you're upset Catherine, it's very, very hard, I understand because Jack was my soul dog. I forgot, he'd had cruciate ligament surgery and then surgery for a luxating patella that was partly why I took legs off bed. I used to do Reiki for him which he loved. I think it was more the soothing voice/ words I used as I'd talk aloud doing it and say where the energy was flowing (your veins and your little venules etc). I think we just have to really deeply feel the love we have for them - and them for us, and how much deep love they feel from us - I was so grateful that Jack (and his mum Minnie) were part of my life for so long but never knew before that I'd still miss them so much so many years on but that's OK. I believe we'll all be together again one day โค๏ธ ๐ ๐ ๐ xx

My nickname used to be chipmunk Yes Betty Davis and Joan Crawford despised each other in real life I like a couple of Betty Davis films The nanny you don't get actresses like that anymore I like all Tales of the Unexpected music used to scare me as a child all hammer house of horrors yes Alcatraz sounds like a holiday at the moment climb Eastwood such a good actor Yes the sad part of one flew over the cuckoo's nest that they was free to go these days I can't focus on films like I used too that's meant to say Clint Eastwood g

walks in the countryside, sunny days, floating in the pool, being with my wife, family, grandkids, the happiest things in the universe.

I hope you have a great day @Catherine21 and are able to take a break (and relax) from your hard work emailing the 'powers that be'. I'll be onto it tomorrow ๐.
I was just housekeeping my PC/emails etc and thought I'd replied to your email when we were chatting - many apologies I don't know where it went ๐.
I was saying about Clint Eastwood, another of my big favourites ๐. 'The Mule' was a good film, I think it was just before Covid and I'm sure he directed that as well. He's amazing - he would have been late 80's I guess then. And 'Play Misty for me' - never see that one repeated but another favourite.
Anyway, take good care and my very warmest wishes xx

That's a beautiful garden Catherine, I wish I had one.
What makes me happy is nostalgia, relaxing with several beers for the night, and food.

Walking in the countryside, being in Conwy or Llandudno in N Wales, green fields and valleys, playing my guitar and writing songs or just jamming and noodling and doodling, spending quality time with my wife, eating really good fish and chips from a tray on Llandudno promenade and watching people go by. I thank God every day for the myriad of simple pleasures there are in the world that are free and/or inexpensive that bring joy to us all. A good belly laugh too! Steptoe and Son, where he gets out of the coffin has to be one of the funniest moments ever for constant belly laughs!!! I watch a lot of old clips on telly on the YouTube channel too. I could mention Stevie Riks, Barry Welsh and Hugh Pugh amongst others but fair warning, they are a little bit naughty sometimes and not for the faint hearted but very funny!
