What was your best day ever?

New posts
You know, I don't think I could say I've ever had "best days ever." More like best moments ever. Sometimes they're fleeting moments, sometimes moments that last an evening or an afternoon or morning...but all in all, my life seems to be filled with little snippets of happiness that strike anywhere, any time.

Top favorites, though (long running theme for me) are evenings spent outdoors with a beautiful moonlit night and soft weather and a handsome husband at my side (and a bottle of wine and a full stomach doesn't hurt, either)--could be Paris, could be the Panhandle--it's all as wonderful to me. Nights like that stick in my mind long after they're done.
 
I love to travel so a lot of my 'best days' come from that.
I get a lot of pleasure from both looking back and looking forward.
But I think I am also pretty good at enjoying each day for what it is.
Summer before last we took a family trip around southwest France; it was *wonderful* hanging out at the beach in Collioure by the old tower, our boys wrestling around in the water, the four of us going out for delicious meals every night.
But late this afternoon I will be walking the dogs after work. The light will be that gorgeous September gold. It will be perfect.
 
Wow, best day ever...I think I am very blessed because I have too many to just pick one...... :wub:

Best day ever? I think it was last Sunday :cool:

And I bet RO would have to agree with you on that one. ;-)
 
I would have to agree that I dont know if I've had a best day ever, but I do have lots of "moments" that may have lasted 5 seconds or 5 hours that stand out. One of them that stands out is a few years ago I didnt think I would be able to make it to NY for Thanksgiving which would have been the first time in my life I had not eaten with my parents on that day. So they flew up to my sisters in Albany and I ended up getting a ticket last minute even though I couldnt afford it, and arrived 1 hour before dinner. The look on my fathers face when I walked through the door is burned in my mind forever. He was so excited to have me there that he cried a little. That was an amazing feeling. :cool:

I need to change my signiture, I will be 28 going on 17 next Friday!

I like your moment...so special! Happy early b-day! Not yet 28 going on 18?
 
The best day of my life was driving from Pittsburgh to South Walton county with my Mom, sister, four cats and everything we owned in a Buick LeSabre. One of the cats cried the whole way, we had no jobs and had never seen the place we were moving into but it was the beginning of a new era of best days. I like to say that on that day we hit the life lottery.
