Who am I kidding?!
It's been a bad month. Or many months. In fact, the past 4 months may have been the hardest of my adult life.
I've complained and cried so much that I am officially sick of myself!
And so I thought I would just simply think on a few "little things" that make me happy... creature comforts that I long for... especially on days like today!
- The Smell of Rain... especially in the morning!
- Chips & Guacamole... especially when the chips are thin and really salty!
- A Clean House... preferably one that has been cleaned by someone other than me!
- Personalized Stationary and other Personalized Unnecessary Paper Products
- Inspirational Ballads from great Muscials (my current favorite is "Defying Gravity" from Wicked)
- Clean Sheets
- An Organized Closet
- Cute & Fun Bags... I am a "bag lady"; always carrying a bag of "to dos"!
- Watching my girls dance for me
- Red Velvet Cake
- The weeds, feathers from dead birds, and other pieces of "nature" that my children routinely pick up from the ground to give to me as "gifts"
- Handmade Soap
- A Clean Purse (no dirty tissues, roaming receipts, food remnants, or trash inside)
- Bubble Baths
- Orange Vanilla Scented Candles
- Vacuum Lines in the Carpet
- Freshly Painted Toenails
- Grilled and Buttered Corn on the Cob
- Freshly Bathed Children in PJ's
- Crossing things off of a written "to do" list... the "old fashioned" way
- Anything Monogrammed
- Handmade and Unique Children's Clothing
- Sleeping Babies
- Sleeping with the Windows OPEN!
- Cool & Crisp Fall Weather! (Please Fall, come back soon! It was so nice to have you for a quick week!)
What little things make you happy?
