Finding abit of Sparkle

The word for the week over at Take a Happy Break, is Sparkle.And it made me consider what brings  a sparkle to my life - what gives me the oomph I sometimes need to get going in the morning. What I think about when I need to give myself a boost.

 A peaceful morning with the autumn sun shining in, and the cats basking in the warmth provides me with a sense of both contentment and also gives me my sparkle.

Rain outdoors, and a whole afternoon to curl up with a book.

This is a whopping 1072 pages, and a real page turner. I recently read On Writing, by Stephen King (as recommended by Geraldine in her blog My Real Life Reviews), and loved his writing, and his encouragement of fledgling writers, so thought I'd try this book. In the past I've considered his books off limits, as I thought they would be too horrifying for my taste. This one so far is more of a mystery.

Simple comforts, but they will be what I remember when I'm looking for my oomph, this week.
