I have about 6 blog posts floating around in my head but am not finding the time to sit down and actually write them. Anyone else in that same boat? No? Just me?
Anyway, due to having no more than 5 minutes to get anything done it being summer and approximately 300 degrees outside, I'm just going to copy Jo-Lynnethis morning. Because copying Jo-Lynne is usually a good idea ;-)
six unimportant things that make me happy
1. sunshine.
i find it difficult to get motivated on gray, gloomy days. even if its only 10 degrees outside, sunshine makes all the difference in the world to me. so i probably will never move to seattle. sorry, edward.
2. my ipod.
a gift from my husband, i find it amazingly therapeutic. i'm surrounded by noise all day: often loud, sometimes whiny and/or annoying. when i'm making dinner or cleaning, i put on my ipod and suddenly the chaos is just background noise. a definite sanity saver.
3. a good cup of coffee, a comfy chair and something to read
my favorite form of therapy.
4. naptime.
mine or theirs. equally wonderful.
5. pens.
especially gel ones. in different colors. ooo - and sharpies. i just can't write a whole list or note in just one color. that would be wrong!!
6. dvr.
best. invention. ever. well, since food network, anyway.
What about you? Leave a note if you play along and I'll come read yours!
I have come to realize, just how huge a shame it is that we don't live closer. As I read more and more of your blogs, I recognize how well we would get along. It is always fun to see and talk to you when we do get together though. Hope it is soon!

Swap out tea for coffee and my list would be exactly the same! Hope that you're having a great week!

I'm a huge pen person too. I care less about how it looks and more about how it writes. I can't stand a scratchy pen!

It sounds like we have a lot in common.
I, too, love sunshine (that's partly why I reside in Arizona).
I also like the Twilight series and comfy chairs and gel pens and Jo-Lynne's blog. ;)
Other happy things:
* when my baby smiles
* when my 2-year-old gets really excited about something
* making (and eating) mini chocolate chip muffins
* having long talks with my husband
