"" so happy being me ""

doing: just got to work, so finishing up the usual morning work things.
feeling: ... to put it bluntly - shitty.
listening to: nothing. i haven't decided what music fits my mood just yet.

today we had a fight. not unlike any other one we've had in the past. but a fight none the less. and really, no body likes to fight. our fights are about normal things, usually money. but not this time. looking back it seems silly. its something that should just come naturally, but somehow we've lost sight of how to get ourselves back to that. i've vented and i've cried and now i guess i just need to start doing. take some sort of action that will make me feel like this will all work out. i dont want us to be miserable forever!


on top of thinking about the fight we had i was told to think about what makes me happy. i can't think of 5 things off the top of my head. sure, my family-friends-ect hit the list. but what about little things? its the little things in life right? so why can't i come up with little things right away?!

so i'm going to. it will take me longer than 10 minutes for this list, but i want a list.

this is a list of little things that make me happy:
(in no particular order)

*the smell of fresh cut grass
*a light snow, the kind that sticks to the trees and makes everything white
*music - the right song at just the right time to match exactly how i'm feeling
*road trips - going somewhere, or nowhere, with people that you can just laugh with
*concerts
*singing extra loud to your favorite song when you know no one is listening. OR singing extra loud with a friend that doesn't care how crappy your voice is!
*editing pictures and finding that ONE that you just KNEW you'd captured and that your client will absolutely love
*taking pictures
*taking pictures for me. of something random that just sparks my interest
*weddings - seeing that small moment between the bride and groom that tells you how truly in love they really are
*my tv shows on hulu.com
*ice cold lemonade on a hot hot day
*the acoustic guitar-especially when my friends play
*chex mix
*my moms zucchini bread
*finding a perfect pair of shoes, even if its only online shopping and they are WAY too expensive
*Lego video games-playing for hours!
*daisys and lilies
*seeing my garden grow. actually seeing proof that i didn't kill everything i planted!
*cookie dough
*my heated blanket


okay, it wasn't as hard as i thought it would be!
