26.) A place to call my own

I am looking forward to buying a house one day. But, as I gaze around my apartment, I realize that I finally have “a
place to call my own”. And I’m loving it.

25.) The color…....red. I don’t know why, but it makes me happy.

24.) My new stage name: NEO, cause I’m “THE ONE”.

13.) Three-day weekends, especially when the weather is
beautiful, just like it was for this Memorial Day weekend.

14.) Well-behaved children- I always take good kids for
granted. But, if they are , what a blessing !!

15.) My Freedom- I will never take that for granted again.

16.) Meeting someone of my level- mentally and emotionally.

17.) When my brother comes to me for help instead of someone else. His trust and confidence that his big sister is still the “Queen Bee” who can “fix any and everything ” for him reminds me of how he looked up to me when we were younger.

18.) Chats with my mom

19.) 43Things and All Consuming

20.) Friends who are really friends, like Val and Stacey.

21.) Completing goals, 21 to go. I like the sense of
accomplishment.

22.) Realizing you are finally over your “ex”. Priceless !!!
It took a year, but I truly believe I am.

23.) My Chi-town family- now, I don’t feel so alone in this
world.

12.) Finding inspirational music

I finally checked out Anthony Hamilton’s lastest this weekend. The album made me feel so good. The last time I was moved like this was the first time I heard Floetry 1st album. It feels so good to moved. If you have not copped this one, run don’t walk and get this. You need this !!! Trust me!!!
