Day 14 – Ten things that make you really happy
For once, this is a super easy blog post! I’m generally a pretty happy person, so to actually point out things that make me happy is sort of exciting!
#1. Flowers. I really like getting flowers, especially for no reason! It’s kind of weird, but I also really like how dead flowers look 😡 There’s just something about them! I’d much rather have alive flowers, though.
#2. Sleeping in until 8am. It just feels so nice! I get to sleep in past my normal time, but still get enough sleep to go to bed a little later the night before. And, it doesn’t totally destroy any chance of productivity during the day! Triple win!
#3. Harry Potter. I LOVE Harry Potter. I can’t wait to re-read the whole series again this summer! I grew up with Harry Potter, and it’s like I’m best friends with all the characters. I was so sad when it “ended.”
#4. Cuddling with the mister. There’s nothing I’d rather do than just lay in bed or lay on the couch with the mister and snuggle up. Even if we’re just watching a movie, or talking, it’s the best feeling in the world.
#5. Speaking of best feelings in the world – being married to the mister. I can’t imagine spending my life with anyone else, and I couldn’t ask for a more loving, caring, and impossible man to call my husband 🙂
#6. I really love this photo of me and Steven – and homemade gifts. This is one of my favorites of me and Steven. It was taken just a month and a half before our wedding, at a friend’s wedding! My sister-in-law and mother-in-law made us this candle for Christmas, and when we turn the candle on, it lights up our photos. Heart. Melted.
#7. Food in the house. I feel so fortunate to be able to put food in the cupboards and in the fridge. I feel incredibly blessed that it’s not something we have to worry about at this time in our life, and that we can spend a little extra on the organic stuff. 
#8. Cooking. I really really love making homemade meals! These cookbooks never disappoint me, and give me everything I need to know about cooking! And there’s always Pinterest too 🙂
#9. Yoga. Yoga really helps my back. It’s so fabulous. It also leaves me feeling so relaxed and good about my body after I’ve done it. It really is the best medicine. 
#10. Being passionate. Nothing makes me happier than when I get really excited about something – like a beautiful photo, a new book, a student understanding something in class, or researching how to create an awesome garden. Being passionate in different areas is what keeps me alive, and keeps me going!
