Found this blog: A Glass Half Full, and she had this cute list on her's about things that make her happy. I decided to make one of my own.
1. How happy Rilo is when I walk through the door. Seriously, it's like she hadn't seen me in weeks, even if I'm just gone for an hour. That is love.
2. The smell of Christmastime. I can tell when it's getting close to my favorite time of the year. Yes, it's freezing cold, but the air has a smell to it that will always remind me of my childhood.
3. Painting. I know I'm not a professional, but I really like doing it. It relaxes me, and I like being creative.
4. Making my husband laugh. He chuckles sometimes, but when I can really get him going, it warms my heart and crinkles my eyes.
5. Coming home for vacation. Yeah, Ben and I don't take "normal" vacations, our's are spent seeing family and friends and it is WONDERFUL.
6. The pictures I have of everyone. I covered my dorm room in them, and now they're all over my house. Only difference is that now they're in frames.
7. Having a cup of coffee and not having to do anything else while sipping it in the morning. Sure, it tastes good when I'm rushing about in the morning trying to get ready, but it is even better when I can just sit and enjoy it.
8. Finding a REALLY good book to read.
9. Traveling with my husband. Luckily, we're in the military and have the privilege of visiting lots of new places.
10. Candles/Scented house things. I love smelly good stuff.

Decent day-got a LOT done!
Woke up and got stuff DONE today.
Had 2 cups of delicious coffee out of my NEW coffee cups (part of a set we just got).
We didn't necessarily need it, but I saw it and wanted it really bad. I like it so much more than our old set.
Anyway, then I got probably 5 loads of laundry put through. I wanted to make sure everything was tidy before our guests got here.
Took my library books back (I'm on book 4 of the Sookie Stackhouse novels), took back Megan's hard drive, and got some stuff from the BX.
Got a phone call from my teacher friend, and I went and helped her decorate her classroom. She's been having stuff at home go on similar to my aunt, so I feel for her and wanted to help out as much as I could. (Honestly, both men need to keep their you-know-whats in their pants and quit trying to destroy their families.)
Came home, did more laundry, cleaned the kitchen, cleaned the utility room, and continued to straighten things up. Worked out with Ben. I've done this workout before and finished it, but today was just really hard for me and I was having a hard time breathing. I kept feeling like I was going to throw up. Ben said to just stop then and it would be OK, but I really wanted to finish it. Cooled down afterwards by taking the dogs for a 40 minute walk. (They're both passed out right now).
I made delicious turkey tacos with homemade salsa for dinner and drank a PBR to go along with it. Watched our recorded True Blood, and now I'm just bumming around on the computer. I need to get up and finish the guest room, but Rilo is sleeping right behind me and I don't want to disturb her, ha.
Tomorrow's list of things to do:
1. Finish getting guest bed ready.
2. Give dogs baths.
3. Vacuum.
4. Mop.
5. Dust.
6. Get new scentsy scent in my warmer.
7. Wash all towels.
I'm sure there's more, but I'm exhausted.
