Popcorn and M&M's

Somethings in life can make you happy no matter what kind of day you're having. Whether you are exhausted from work or a bird pooped on your head or your car died, there are a list of things that make it all better:

Coming home to the love of your life

Cuddling with the love of your life

A greeting from your dog who can somehow bend herself in half at your site

Downing two bags of popcorn coupled with M&Ms

Watching a girl movie you've seen over and over and over

Feeling the kick of life within you

Coloring in a giant coloring book with Crayola crayons

The smell of fresh rain

An entire pot of macaroni smothered in large amounts of Velveeta

Sleeping in

A really good book

A really good bar of chocolate

Holidays with families

Beating your spouse at numerous card/board games

A big cup of hot chocolate with gigantic puffy marshmallows

A phone call from a friend you haven't talked to in ages

A piece of mail that isn't junk or bills

Dancing

A blue jay outside your window

A really long afternoon nap

Baking a cake

Eating said cake

Fresh brownies out of the oven with butter melted on top and milk in a frozen mug

Pretending there aren't calories in any of the afore mentioned food items

Laughing at something stupid until your sides hurt

A stroll through the library

And most importantly, love... love of all things... love of life... love of others

These are a few of my favorite things.

What are some of yours?
