The Five Senses

What better way to tell you a bit more about myself than to tell you things that I like?!

I like to:

See

The sunlight dancing on the ocean causing it to sparkle like diamonds

The rainbow stretch its colours over the grey sky.
My friends' eyes twinkling, their mouths upturned in a smile.
Children playing happily together, running, chasing, and enjoying the moment.
Rolling green hills dotted by cows, sheep and trees.
Boats bobbing slightly on a gentle river.
Friends coming into my home.
A friend's Yahoo ID being lit up which means they're online to talk.
Photos that bring back precious memoriesOld couples walking hand in hand, obviously enjoying their life together.
New blog posts from family, friends and fellow bloggers.
