1. My two wonderful kids- Chad and Evan. They are growing up to be brilliant, kind, handsome little guys.
2. My family- As much as they sometimes annoy me, they are always here for me and have helped me with so much. They are all pretty awesome.
3. My friends- I honestly think I have some of the best friends a girl can have. Some of them have been my friends since we were just little girls and a few I’ve met only in the last few years but they are all great!
4. Makeup- My passion, obsession! I absolutely love playing- I mean, experimenting- with makeup. Nothing helps perk me up more than a trip to a MAC store or Sephora. I would be completely bored without it.
4. Health care- At least access to good, quality health care. I am thankful it is something that my children and I have. Although we might take it for granted at times, it really is a wonderful thing to have that many people around the world don’t.
5. Sleep- the more, the better.
6. Dancing- A great way to have fun with my friends, get some exercise, and relieve stress.
7. 80’s New Wave Music- To some it may be cheesy, but to me, it’s a blast from the past, bringing happy childhood memories.
8. Mint N’ Chip ice cream- I’ll take almost any brand but I definitely love and prefer it from Coldstone.
9. Long, hot showers- They just feel soooo good.
10. Peep toe heels- They are just beautiful and make me feel like a woman.
11. The Internet- I can’t even imagine how we all lived without it. Anything is possible with it- you can shop while also finding a husband!
12. Accomplishing a goal- A great feeling!
13. Receiving a compliment- It doesn’t matter whether it’s someone I know or a complete stranger…it never fails to brighten my day.
14. Listening to Morrissey- Moz songs have a way of making me feel happy, sad, and nostalgic (sometimes all at once!) and his words are absolutely poetic genius.
15. Laughing until I cry- Doesn’t happen as often as I would like but when it does, man, does it feel great!
16. Massages- I’m a sucker for them. I’m always so tense that when I have the opportunity to get one, I’m in heaven.
17. A good book- I love snuggling up in my bed and reading a good book.
18. Eskimo kisses- So sweet and intimate and brings back some wonderful memories.
19. Old TV shows- The Munsters, I Love Lucy, Gilligan’s Island, The Brady Bunch, Bewitched, Gidget, etc….they just don’t make them like they used too and every time I catch one of these shows, I am elated.
20. Making lists- Can’t you tell?
21. A clean house- I love organizing and a clean, organized home makes me feels so relaxed.
22. Finding an awesome sale- I love finding cool things, especially when their on sale.
23. Cedar- The smell of cedar is my favorite scent ever.
24. Roller coasters- They are so awesome and thrilling.
25. The beach- The sun, salt, and water make for a blissful day.
26. A cold beer- Sometimes they just taste so good- especially a cold Bud Light or Newcastle.
27. Looking at old photos- A trip down memory lane…I love the nostalgia from looking at old pictures.
28. Air conditioning- something we often take for granted but can you imagine surviving 100+ temperatures without it?
29. Getting an “A” in a class- It feels so good knowing all of my hard work has paid off.
30. Freshly washed sheets- I love getting into a nice clean bed.
