"Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens!" My guess? That's all that's needed to know where this is headed! Having frosted and wrapped the six pork loins for supper tonight, waiting for the first load of clothes to come from the dryer (that would be the first OVERSIZED load [of two!] of sweats--guess what time of the year it is?), I have a wondrous event--time to contemplate my favorite things. If I were to list them in order of favor, I could give you number 1, and from there on, they simply exist to give my life meaning and joy. And if you have read this blog before, you will know #1 is the woman who continues to amaze the world (and me) by loving me! And I shall list!
Health--enough to do the things I want and enjoy the process of doing.
Wealth*--see above.
The opportunity to perform.
My dual fuel professional range.
The puppy (that would be the almost 17 year old puppy!)
All puppies!
Chicken--fixed any way.
Truly funny movies.
Well written literature.
Smutty literature!
Travel.
Playing bridge.
Playing all sorts of other games.
Our families.
Home made caramels.
Pie.
Okay, most anything sweet and/or salty.
French Fries (once a year!)
Growing older.
Not getting old.
Christmas.
Trying something new.
Warm sandy beaches and crystal clear warm waters.
The snowblower!
Isn't it amazing? The load of clothes is done. In that short amount of time, I've listed 25 of my favorite things. Think what it would have been like if I had just started the load?! Sometime today, between the rush of events that is norm and the chance to refresh tonight, allow your "hills" to be alive with your sound of music! And realize that I lied. Just a little. If I had to order my favorite things, I could give you one and two. You know one. And with any luck at all, you know two. You! And you know you are loved!
Love your list. I would add sappy Christmas movies/shows to my list. They have made two days, what could have been LONG days, pass very quickly.
