30 Day Writing Challenge: Day 1

Day 1

List ten things that make you really happy.

Well, okay then. Here goes nothing.

1. My family.

2. My pets. And well, animals in general.

3. Books. But you knew that already.

4. Music.

5. Sunshine.

6. My imaginary friends. Especially Travis Murphy. He’s my spirit animal. Andrej is a close second.

7. My internet friends because I honestly have no real-life friends.

8. Coffee.

9. Key Lime pie.

10. Words. I know that sounds strange, but writing, reading, talking, learning a new language… it all brings me joy. Words equal knowledge and knowledge is power.

It is good to know that I'm not alone in this. For me, I think the biggest impact was getting a job where I'm literally the only female. I love the guys I work with but... I really wouldn't want to hang out with most of them. :D

That makes a lot of sense. I've got a good five and a half years before I hit that number, but the things going on in my life right now have really been making me think about the things I do and where my time goes. Not just my husband's health, although that's a big part of it, but my kids growing up and getting their own lives. Exactly that though - learning to be a couple again once the kids are gone will be interesting, but also a fun exploration as well. Thanks for all this, too - it really helps put things in perspective.

YES. Lime is always my first choice, but I love anything citrus. Not a big fan of meringue, but lemon pie is amazing as well!

Words are my friends when no one else wants to be. :D I saw something once that said, "I love my computer. All my friends live inside." So yeah. :)
