Here are a few of my favorite things....
- Being the first to open and use a jar of peanut butter. I don't know what it is about the first swipe on the knife, but it's just soft, creamy, and looks perfect.
- Running. Since I haven't been able to a lot this summer I've realized why I miss it. It's the time in the day where my mind can just wander. Yes, I realize some people hate, despise, won't even do it. But really try it ONCE more, and let your mind wander. Some of my best ideas have come from running alone. And if you don't live in torturous heat, try running outside. (much more enjoyable than on a treadmill)
- Listening to Delilah on the radio as I fall asleep. For those who don't know who Delilah is, she comes on at 7-12 p.m. and people call in and dedicate love songs to there loved ones. I know, I know, SO cheesy! But I love it. It makes me relaxed as I listen to the love songs playing softly on my radio as I drift into dreams.
- Hearing my favorite song over and over. I always go through a stage and I have one favorite song and that is almost ALL I listen to. It plays on my iTunes repetitively and somehow I never do get sick of it. It's just one of those things that plays and I get excited to listen to my favorite part or the chorus!
- Opening a toothpaste tube. Undoing the perfectly placed lid. Sliding it across my toothbrush to make for a picture perfect toothbrush. The first used toothpaste always tastes better, looks better because there is no dried up toothpaste on the sides. Lovely.
- Listening to someone tell a intense story over and over. Every time it get better because they use more descriptive words, new ways to tell it, and usually they are over the initial intense factor and just can laugh about it to make for always a better story!
LAST ONE:
- Laughing until I cry and my stomach hurts. It's one of the greatest joys in life. Nothing can live up to it.
