I decided to make a list of the top things that made me happy today. Sometimes I just think it's necessary to remember the little things that make you happy. And sometimes those little things seem bigger than the big things because they are so small and carry such power. So here's my list for today, September 21, 2015 (and in no particular order):
- The beautiful floral picture above. I could not get over the simple beauty and grandeur of those flowers. That picture really spoke to me.
- My pumpkin spice candle. I tend to want to celebrate the upcoming seasons/holidays too early so I keep telling myself to hold off, but today I realized that it is indeed the end of September and the cool weather reminded me that Autumn is officially upon us so I whipped that bad boy out! My house smelled like heaven.
- A sparkly clean bathroom.
- Sour gummy worms!
- Buying paint to start our house projects! Dude, choosing a particular paint color is a real struggle! Are you surprised that we went with "pure white" mostly because that's the color I ultimately wanted and a tiny bit because we were so overwhelmed by the different shades of each color. And then I watched people walk in behind us and choose colors within minutes and my mind was blown!
- Cuddling with my husband. I just always feel safe and happy when he wraps his arms around me.
- New eye shadow. Don't worry guys....it's nothing fancy...I still buy it from the grocery store. But I'm still excited about it!
- Homemade chicken noodle soup and chili that friends share with you! So, so yummy.
- Pinterest.
- Our house. I love that it's ours! And it's so cute and cozy.
So there it is. While I was writing this I asked G what made him happy today and it was a fun little conversation to have. Maybe that'll be our new thing each night. And did I mention how much I love my husband? He is my everything and I'm so grateful I have him.
