Things that made me smile today!!!
On Saturday’s, it seems like we are always trying to spend quality time with each other while also cleaning the house. Currently, I am still unemployed, so most standard cleaning happens throughout the week; however, when it comes to the weekend, I still do the major scrubbing then. With that said, these are the things that made me smile today:
1. Got to somewhat sleep in. Travis got up with the boy, and I slept until 9:00 am. That was so WONDERFUL!!!
2. Subway for breakfast! It may not be the nice buttery biscuit with eggs, cheese, and bacon on it that I dearly love from Hardees’s, but I think my Heart is happier that we had low fat from Subway. Besides, it is still very delicious, and …… I did not have to cook!
3. We ate at Subway …. So I didn’t have any dishes to wash today (by hand since the landlord still has not installed a dishwasher yet….however, he says he is coming by today to measure again.)
4. Laundry….. Now that Connor is 4 he wants to help me with laundry. (Well before he tried to help me but now he’s actually productive instead of causing more work.) He likes to help me put the clothes in the washer, he wants to help fold the wash cloths, and he can put his own clothes away in his dresser. LOVE THAT BOY!!!!
5. Clorox Wipes!!!! I know I probably don’t have to say anything else with this, because all you all out there know that I am a germ freak and anything that will kills the germs is my friend. With that said, I LOVE CLOROX WIPES! They are so handy, and I love to clean my bathroom with them.
6. Refillable soap bottles … When the small bottle on the counter top runs out, I love that I have a bazillion gallons of soap underneath my sink that I can use to refill my small bottle. It is like I get to say… “Take that Mr. Sam Walton Family … I do not have to make a special trip to your store because my little bottle is empty.”
7. My husband playing fetch with my child! I know I shouldn’t smile at this, but it is just so darn funny.
8. Leftovers in the fridge …. This means that I can continue the no cooking for the day with minimal clean up.
9. My Kindle … as I relax I am able to finish my current book , and then with the press of a button or two, I can download the next book in my series for less than what it costs at borders, and I can also download free classics such as Little Women. It is like I get to say … “Take that Borders Book Store … I do not have to make a special trip to your store to find out if the Butler did it, since the killer is not being revealed until the next book…and I refuse to come and pay full price for it.”
10. Instant air in the truck!!! Both my husband’s truck (Silverado) and my Trailblazer have something called Instant Heat and Instant Air. (Thank you Chevy!!!) This means that you don’t have to wait for it to heat up or in this case….COOL DOWN!! It is like 10,000 degrees outside right now with a bunch of I am going to make you melt into your clothes humidity. Therefore, when my husband turns on the truck and the air conditioning immediately starts cooling me down, I have to SMILE!!

(PS) I have a friend from school who writes a hilariously funny and also very educational blog entitled, “From Inmates to Play Dates.” Just like her, I love to make lists, and that is where I got the idea of this post from. If you would like to check her blog out…here is the link:
