Sunshine
Going to the movies
Watching the sun come up while I walk to work
Kissing my husband
Cuddling with my cats
Running, with no limit on how far I’ll go, or how long I’ll go for
Looking at my wedding photos and remembering what an amazing day that was
Listening to the snow fall (same with the rain)
Being girly, and using lots of fragranced stuff, like lotion and body scrub
Finding new and inexpensive ways to be girly, and make my own body scrub and lotions and whatnot
Vera bradley—especially on clearance
Looking at photographs that I’ve taken, and knowing that they’re masterpieces
Coming home to a clean, well organized house (which only has one place that isn’t well organized, and that’s okay with me right now)
Cleaning my apartment with the music turned wayyyy up
Getting in the tub after I’ve taken 30 minutes to scrub it spotless
Reading a really wonderful book
Laughing with friends
Knowing that if I ever had a problem, I have a huge support system of people that I could talk to about it
Sunflowers
Fresh fruits and vegetables
Having iced coffee at coffee and cream, and sitting outside with friends
Watching a child read aloud. They are SO adorable.
Swinging on a swingset
Snuggling on my fouton with the quilts my mother made me for my wedding and for my graduation
The taste of super cold brita water from my refridgerator
“better than sex” cake
Counting money
When a really old, wonderful movie comes on television on a Saturday afternoon when I have no plans
When I find a quotation that fits a situation perfectly
The drive in
Air popped popcorn
Sunsets on Owasco lake and sitting by the campfire at Hasenjager’s camp
Really random phone calls that last for hours
The color pink
The smell of brand new crayola crayons
Board games
Greeting cards and sending them to people I love
Yankee candles
Running shoes
Thick socks when its cold outside
Doing dishes
Vaccuming
Thunderstorms
Feeling other peoples skin (like nana’s elbows, or justin’s eyelids)
Suntan lotion (especially the smell)
Sleeping after an entire day in the sun
babies
hiking at the glen
bagels
when you first open your windows in the springtime and how wonderful everything sounds and smells
birds chirping
nicknames- both my own, and when I give them to other people
datebooks
birthdays
weddings
baths-really hot ones, with candles lit and music playing
visiting friends and catching up
exploring
historical places
home movies
music
filled cookies, sugar pies, oreos and orange juice, and all the other weird foods my family has come up with.
Cold pillows and lots of blankets
Most white wines
Snowy days
Memories of school
The smell of wood
Singing
Music boxes
Apples
Family
Sweet potato fries
Getting magazines in the mail
Hearing Cats purr
Crying happy tears
Puppies
Vh1 shows
Kermit the frog
Hearing the lord’s prayer said at church
Massages and facials
Looking for cloud shapes in the sky
Sunglasses
Blowing bubbles on a warm day
Corn flakes
Mechanical pencils
Being tan
Pizza
Necklaces in all shapes and sizes
Rainbow makers (prisms)
Dusting with pledge
Wii Mario cart

How I did it
How I did it: you never think it will be out of necessity, but in this case, it so was. And it was a neccessary thing that happened, and a neccessary situation which caused me to man up so to speak. So I did. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just sat down and decided that I was going to come up with my list. I browsed other peoples' list, and came up with my own! Read how I did it…

I hope that I can reach my ideal weight soon too! I’m around 18 pounds from where I would ideally like to be, but other programs are telling me that my ideal weight is far below what I thought MY Ideal was….so we’ll see.
