5 things that bring me joy this week

Check the entire “5 things that bring me joy this week” weekly series here, a collection of seemingly insignificant things that serve as a reminder to appreciate the little things — those small joys that make a difference in our day-to-day.

It’s been a week already, so it’s needless to say that I am more than looking forward to the weekend. We haven’t worked out our plans yet, but we’ll surely find something fun to do, especially as the weather promises to be divine. I can’t wait to soak it up!

Now, here’s my weekly list of 5 things that bring me joy this week:

the energy I feel during and once I’m done with my workout. I fully blame my playlist for this one… And these, and if you’re interested in trying them yourself, please check with your doctor as what works for one, may be dangerous for another.
a rainy afternoon. A nice change after a little too much sun lately. Plus, the rain brought cooler temperatures and that alone is a reason to cheer!
this dress that I just received and am totally in love with! This style… you know I can’t resist it, especially as I think it suits me the best. Oh, and did I mention it has pockets? I really want this dress in white as well, but I’m hesitating because it’s… white. We shall see…
these mini carnations (pictured), that look like little peonies. They’re opening up so nicely and I can’t have enough of looking at them. Flowers always bring me joy.
these little wonders that make pressing/ironing so much easier! Given that both my husband and I wear a lot of linen and cotton clothes, these are a huge help and make laundry day a little less dreadful. It’s the little things!
