Familiarity is Joy

Part of being happy is seeing the same objects every day in your home and being familiar. A while ago in the previous year I bought a radio alarm clock from a charity shop, I'm guessing the original owner bought a new one with dab radio instead of FM. I love the way my radio alarm clock is designed. It has nice orange numbers displaying the time, a pin stripe grill on top and all the controls are spaced out. There is two alarms so you can make a buzzer and radio each with their own times. 
I'm aware that a lot of thought went into the design of it, there is a separate button for each function and it is rounded. Dab radio is so cool, they make the whole signal turn on and off in pulses to generate code the represents the sound so they can fit many stations in a small frequency.  I have a dab radio in the kitchen. 
Another happy familiar sight is playing cards. I like to play all sorts of card games. FreeCell, Solitaire, BlackJack or pocker; never for money, just for points.  There are some card games on my phone.
