The Things I Love, Even When Life Isn't One of Them

Life's Simple Things 

Oh, How I enjoy Them

• Uncontrollable giggles from my children
• Food and everything about it- eating, cooking it, inventing it..
• Telling a joke, and having people that actually laugh
• The many poop stories that my children have provided for me to share with others
• The smell of bleach
• Having a nice tan
• Listening to Christina Aguilera and pretending it's me singing
• Writing, even if I am the only one that thinks I am any good at it
• A nice, hot cup of coffee first thing in the morning
• Finishing a crossword puzzle all by myself!
• Randomly coming up with something witty to say, at just the right moment
• Success at anything, be it large or small
• Dreams, and the fact that I remember most of them
• My journal
• Cinderella Man and Steel Magnolias
• Clean, folded laundry
• That feeling I get right before I fall asleep at night
• Autumn; the smell, the sounds, the colors, the way it feels when the wind blows, and Thanksgiving
• Knowing just enough about politics to get me by, but not enough to keep me worried
• A buffet- I know the food sucks, but it's all you can eat!
• Unexpected packages in the mail
• Having no plans for the night so I can curl up in front of the TV and watch movies until I fall asleep
• Tucking the babies in
• The smell of the bread aisle at the grocery store
