I went to a movie on Sunday and I was going to water my yard when I got home. Just when I got close to my house, a massive thunderstorm broke out and POURED BUCKETS all over the grass! I love when that happens!2. Finishing a project and LOVING the results!
I just finished putting up curtains all over the house and staining a bunch of cabinets - it feels WONDERFUL to be DONE and love the results of all that hard work!3. Free shipping!
I just hate it when you go online to order something that is a really good deal, and then you go to check out and purchase it and they tack on an obnoxious shipping fee to it. I got an email from my Avon lady and I wanted to get some mascara, but didn't want to order much else. Typically, you get free shipping through Avon if you order $30 or more. I was going to hold off on my purchase until I needed $30 worth of stuff....but as a summer deal, it was free shipping on EVERYTHING no matter how much you bought. I LOVE THAT!4. Dog parks
I just can't say enough good things about the dog park by my house - Tails N Trails in Arlington! Maggie loves it, she gets to be off-leash and play with all of the other small dogs and run around like a crazy dog. And I get to pet and play with a ton of cute dogs as well. Everyone wins!5. Being content with what you have and nothing more.
Sometimes I get caught up in wanting things I don't have or wishing my life were different or more like someone else's.....but that only leads to a pity party and being disappointed. I am trying to perfect the art of being content and happy with my life RIGHT where I am and with what I have. That's not to say that there aren't things that I want to accomplish or that I wouldn't love to embrace new people/things into my life, but to be OK with what you have and where you are is a gift you give to yourself and I'm trying to get better at this.
