Today is my fourth bloggerversary. I remember my very first post on that very first blog and the very first friends I made – several who are still with me, much to my amazement (seriously guys, I’m a wack job, why do you stick around?!?). To say that I’ve gone through a lot since those first days is a monumental understatement. I wasn’t happy back then. In fact, I was so miserable that I had to make a list of things that made me happy just as a reminder that happiness did exist. As a gift to myself, I’m reposting that list. It’s a reminder yet again of how far a little happiness can take a girl.
my kids
skittles
cinnamon
black coffee
piano music
long hot showers
attention
a clean house
tulips
sweating on purpose
freshly shaven skin
sunshine on my back
rain on my face
full tank of gas
old friends
the first slice of bread from a new loaf
waking up early (if I’ve slept good)
sleeping late (if I haven’t)
salvation
picnics
swimming pools
the sound of waves (real, not machine created)
sour cream pound cake (Momma’s recipe)
passion
high heel shoes
tan legs
ipod
text messaging
the farm
new friends
respect
double sided tape
dark chocolate
Christmas trees
Fireballs (the candy)
I think “It can’t be four years.” then I look back on all that has happened in my life since I found you and think “It has only been four years?”
You are a wack job, but aren’t we all. Enjoy the day, baby duck.
crape myrtles
If you had never started blogging, I would be one friend short in my life.
Congrats on the bloggoversary!
Your list makes me happy, too. Except for the high heel shoes. I like them, I just dislike wearing them.
I used to ‘deal’ fireballs in my elementary school. I was the fireball pusher. Earned a pretty hefty income on the side, too, for a gradeschool girl, lol.
it’s a good list. happy blogiversary!
Happy Blogiversary! I’m glad I found your blog!
Mmm..fireballs. It’s been years! Wonder how many points in a fireball?
