In response to the My Favorite Things voluntary blog hop on Christa Wojo’s blog.
Ok Christa, here you go. 10 Things I love that are legal.
- Prosecco. I Love Prosecco. If I could go to work with it in my coffee mug, I would, but unfortunately it’s illegal. So I’m forced to drink sparkling water and coffee until the time is appropriate for me to pop a bottle open. The only thing second behind Prosecco is a good bottle of red wine.
- Newborns. I love the smell of newborn babies. I’ll always ask to hold them, but what I’m really going for is the smell. There’s something about their natural smell and Johnson & Johnson baby powder (I still powdered my son who’s eight, just so I can get a whiff.)
- Fired Weapons. I’m not a serial killer or special ops, but I love the smell of freshly fired weapon!
- Music. It’s gone-be-a good day when my favorite song comes on when I’m behind a steering wheel. I turn it up and a smile spreads across my face. (It holds me over until I can have Prosecco)
- Scalp Massage. Have you ever had one? Don’t laugh until you try it. A good scalp massage will leave you speechless.
- Number 6 is a good foot massage.
- Stolen Moments. I love catching people in intimate moments. I don’t mean catching lovers in the full act. That would be some type of voyeurism. But I’m a lightweight voyeur. I love catching people when they’re sharing a special moment. Example: sitting at a red light and I look over into the next car and see two lovers sharing intense eyes and she picks up his non-driving hand and kisses it slowly. (the light changes and we all get the horns and middle finger because we’ve held-up the traffic.) I’ve shared a stolen moment.
- Hair Done. I love my hair when it freshly done and bounces like the shampoo commercials.
- Last of the OJ. There’s nothing like the last glass of cold orange juice. It’s the most concentrated.
- Life Surprises. I love, love being caught off guard by life. I start smiling from the inside to out. Example. I stress over getting my report done on green. In my heart I know it should be blue. The morning of the presentation I yell at the kids to get off to school. There’s a traffic jam; I barely make it on time for the presentation only to get there to find out we are scrapping the green and we are going with blue. I feel like God is calling me out saying, “I’ve got this, you settle yourself down.”
