Five Things Making Me Happy by Amy Andrews


Thought I'd come up with another 5 things blog. So, with no further ado, here are 5 things making me happy at the moment! 


1. Firstly this song is making me all kinds of happy. Great message and such a pretty, pastelly, happy film clip.





2. I finished a book. Only anyone who's ever written one, or tried to write one, will understand how good that feels! That brings the happy every single time!


3. Swimming pools. Its been HOT here and having that sparkling blue beauty to immerse myself in has been absolute bliss!





4. Red toe nail polish. Just because....





 5. My little brother is going to be on TV next year as one of the Sharks in Shark Tank Australia. That’s him, the handsome one in the middle with the blue shirt! Am so proud of him!



So there you go - happy stuff :-)

What about you? What's making you happy lately?

Five things making me happy this week.

It's been a tough few weeks in the DeLeo household. Both patriarchs on each side of our family are fighting big battles and although we're trying to stay very positive it's been a tough road. It's at times like this that counting blessings and remembering all the things that bring us joy is so very important. I thought I'd share a few of the things that have brought a smile to my face this week.

Modern Family

I watch very little T.V these days. What with the day job and the kids and books to write I don't even visit the TV room most days - except for Thursday nights. On Thursday nights I laugh until my side aches and it can be the best medicine of them all. Last summer we took series 1-4 to the beach house and watched them back to back for a week and I can't tell you how much fun it was. Even if Rachel Bailey says I remind her A LOT of Claire, I just love this family to bits. If you haven't got acquainted yet, do yourself a favour...



Salted Caramel

In truth, I'd probably eat salted caramel cotton wool if they made it. It's one of those flavours that shouldn't possibly work but does. I've discovered this packet of gold this week. It only lasted until Tuesday....



Liane Moriarty's Books

There are certain authors whose books I'll autobuy. Doesn't matter what the blurb says, or the reviews, or the price. Liane Moriarty is one of those authors for me. She writes women's fiction rather than romance but there's something about her communities, the way she writes about relationships that I just love.



Last Chance Proposal

My Christmas book "Last Chance Proposal" is on sale for 99c this week and it's has had four lovely five star reviews!


This crazy bunch

At the end of a tough week it's lovely to come home to these crazy cats.



What's made you smile this week?
