Nope, I wasn't Tagged...


I was going to write about the crazy day that I am about to have...
but that would be boring...

So, instead I am going to list some things that I just love...
not the obvious God, Hubby, family....
you do already know those things about me, right?

These are comfort and hobby things...

1. Time with a very good book.
It has been a while since
I have read a book that I could
not put down.

2. Moving into a new home.
Makes my entire family shudder!
It is a lot of work...but it is such an
adventure and a whole clean canvas to
paint on.

3. Decorating!
This takes time, creativity and often
money. I love to do it
but seem to see each finished
project as a nearly forever
one and don't start over...
I need to be constantly creative so we
have often found ourselves in a new home
as the old one gets completed.
Not anymore! We just moved the Moms into
our neighborhood. Now I will keep
reworking this home.

4. Hunting down a bargain.
I love, love, love a deal!!
This is inherited from my mother!

5. Watching a sweet and smart movie with my husband.
Need I say more?

6. Scrapbooking.
One day...I will have conquered all
of the photos that are laughing at
me from the safety of their pretty
photo box.

7. Time spent with the family in Potter County, the mountains.
It is as if the pressures of the world
just fall right off your shoulders as
you climb into the beauty of untouched creation.

8. Going to Auctions and yard sales.
The season for these is nearly upon us.
I can feel my heart begin to race...
just at the thought!

9. Slipping into bed onto freshly changed sheets!
Sheer Bliss!

10. Hanging out with my Mom.
A very funny and great lady!

11. Bowling
The latest in my long list of things
to enjoy. It is fun to do with
the kids. I am not terrible at it
and yet it is challenging...
therefore enjoy it.

These are some things that make me happy.

Some of these I get to do regularly...
some will be easier to accomplish once
the kids move out...
and I take over their
space...
(insert wicked laugh here)

What do you do for YOU?
