      my children, even in all the rantings and moments of chaos...
      time outside in the blessed sun and rain...
      time outside in the blessed sun and rain PLUS awesome music to dance around to... all at once is always prefered! :D
      good food and good energy
      food for thought... or else i would starve...

    Having income (or money in my pocket)
    Having someone real I can talk with and be myself (there is only one person currently on the planet that has that ability)
    a long ride in a comfortable car (having a great sounding radio helps)

    Bed.
    My daughter sleeping.
    Summer Breezes.
    Breath. The sound of someone I love breathing nearby.
    Touch.
    Warm Water. Usually a bath.
    Sunshine.

    i know it sounds silly, but the thing that brings me comfort (aside from my bf) is stopping on the way home at starbucks and going inside with a book. My bf lives 160+ miles away and i make the drive every week, so the stopping at starbucks thing to me is very nessesary. I go inside with a novel and order a coffee, and dont leave until the coffee is completely gone.

    it is a nice way to unwind. :)

      My last gf lived "only" 70 or so miles away from me ... I didn't make the trip every week ... or even every month!! She didn't make the trip every year, either.

        The sound of a voice I love, staying warm in bed or under a blanky on a rainy day, cooking for people I love (just like you BadAss), listening to Brazilian music.
        S.

    Jumping off my boat into the lake on a real hot day.
    Cocktail time at Jan's place.
    A back rub.
    A front rub.
    Knowing for sure that all the bases are covered.
    Down time

    a hot bath every night, my dog, rain on the roof, climbing in bed after a long day, sitting on the front porch in the warm morning sun, a sincere smile from a stranger.

    Being warm.
    My least favorite feeling is being cold.

      i too hate being cold.

      and yet, i am instantly put at ease when i see snow. so soft and muffly.

      otherwise, flannel. flannel sheets, flannel shirts (on my guy, or me wearing his), the flannel lining of my old fashioned sleeping bag.

      chicken soup from an authentic mexican restaurant (it will have whole pieces of chicken and avocado and garbanzo beans and a warm stack of flour tortillas on the side)

      certain people--to date 4, that instantly put me at ease, no matter what my state of mind. these four people i believe to be my soulmates.
