warm and fuzzies


Ok I have been in a funk lately and I'm not sure why. But, I've decided the quickest way to get out of it is to focus on the positives! So, here's my list of the things in the world that make you (or at least me) feel absolutely fabulous.

The "awwwww" list:

putting on warm fuzzy sweats and feeling toasty even though it's freezing out

a completely unexpected and random call from an old friend

finally figuring something out that's been driving you crazy

someone doing something for you just because they were thinking about you and knew you'd appreciate it

love in any form, given or received

getting sincere honest praise for a job well done

making your first big purchase on your own and knowing that you earned every bit of it

laughing over forgotten inside jokes

unexpected kind words from friends

winning a hard-fought close game--especially in the last minute (or for me, inning) :)

forgetting the rules and completely enjoying a chocolate binge

your pet being adorably cuddly and cute

a nice long warm relaxing bath

finally accomplishing something you've been working really hard for

seeing one of your friends truly happy

the perfect kiss: soft, lingering, and all sweet

laughing so hard that you're in tears and rolling on the floor. and then remembering it with everyone the next day

vacation time. especially when it's spent somewhere far away from the daily grind

making someone who is sad smile

a warm fire and perfect hot cocoa on a cold day

knowing that your true friends will always be there for you, no matter what stupid things you do or bad moods you're in

awww I feel better already!!! hope you all get a little bit warm and fuzzy reading the list! and a special thanks to steph for contributing a few :) gnight all

I, too, have been in a funk. I'd rather not be in a funk as Christmas approaches, so thanks for the reminder of the little things that can make us smile...

Al's Additions:

A fabulous hair day

A good book, a cozy blanket, and a rainy Sunday

finally finding the perfect shirt/skirt/jeans

random compliments- from strangers. isn't it nice to hear something from someone under no obligation to please you??

drinking a bottle of champagne with your best girlfriends for no reason in your pajamas

xoxo,
Al
