Top Ten Tuesday is a meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, featuring a different top 10 theme each week. This week’s topic is Things That Make Up My Perfect Day, with the prompt: share the people, places, activities, foods, circumstances, etc. that make a day perfect for you. Go into as much or as little detail as possible!
My first instinct was to go with the dream of a perfect day — a tropical beach somewhere, white sand, cool breezes, fresh fruit, a great book… but I think instead I’ll keep my focus on the here and now. Here are little things that contribute to a great (maybe even perfect!) day for me:
- Long walk, preferably with great views out in nature somewhere
- Good coffee
- Uninterrupted reading time for at least a couple of hours
- Sitting down for a delicious dinner with my family
- Catching up by phone with a long-distance friend or two
- Dancing (preferably outdoors, with a mix of old and new dances, and my favorite dance companions)
- Binge-watching an episode or two of a great drama or comedy series
- Word games and jigsaw puzzles
- Planning my next trip
- Spending time with the people I love
It’s rare to get all of these in one day… but I’ll take any combination I can get!
What about you? What makes up your perfect day?
If you wrote a TTT post, please share your link!
A great list!! I’m retired so these are all things I could do if I wanted.
That sounds lovely!
The is sounds achievable and enjoyable.
Thanks for sharing your #TTT
Thank you! All simple things… and I need more time for all of them!
This all sounds wonderful to me. 🙂
Thank you!
Long walks in nature, as long as it isn’t up a steep hill, the best!
Ha, I agree — steep hills and I don’t particularly get along!! 🙂
A good coffee would be on my list, too! There’s something so nice about a really good cup of coffee to feel good!
Definitely! Coffee with a pretty view is even better!
Yes! How could I forget the view!
This looks like a great day!
Here’s my TTT for the week: https://readbakecreate.com/d-author-names-alphabet-challenge/
Thank you!
Lovely list! I love uninterrupted reading time too and I wish I had more of it!
It can feel so hard to come by some days (and weeks)! But such a treasure to have.
Such a great list!
Thank you!
I didn’t take part in this prompt but tbh your list is pretty much exactly what I would have written!
Lynn 😀
I feel like booklovers have many non-bookish preferences in common too! Now if only I had time for more of these!
