Not just a little funk, but a big, fat, monster funk.
I blame sleep deprivation and long hours with a cute teething baby.
In an effort to counter my funk, here are 10 random and simple things that make me happy.
1. Cookies and Cinnamon Rolls, but mostly cinnamon rolls.
Lots of calories + Lots of sugar = Happy me.
Happy me = Fat me.
Oh well.
2. When Daddy gets the poopy diaper.
It's like Russian Roulette. Everything is going great. And then the poop bomb hits. Alex is a diaper changing pro and usually does it without complaint.
3. Afternoon Naps.
They're golden.
4. An empty sink and laundry hamper.
Both at the same time = Mucho Happiness.
5. Good smells.
Baking bread, clean laundry, clean baby to name a few...
6. Ice water.
Hydration = Happiness.
7. New Shampoo.
I'm a shampoo junkie. Anytime I get a new kind it's like Christmas. Unfortunately I have a hard time finishing the old bottle before starting the new.
8. Bed time.
I love that moment when Robert has actually gone to sleep and it's my turn to do the same.
9. Talking to my Mom.
We (my siblings) give her a hard time, but we all call her when we need to talk. Anytime. Any topic. She's there.
10. Checking the mail.
I've always loved checking the mail. I don't know why.
... and now, it's bedtime!!

I totally agree on the checking the mail thing! I LOVE IT. I always have... it's weird.
we're here to help...
love Maren
Aww... thanks. :-) I really needed to hear that. I've been kind of a bummed too.
I laughed when I read "Hydration=Happiness." For me, "Hydration=Numerous Interruptions." I'm not alone. Our UK tour group was going to go down in the guide's memory as the "bathroom group" ... people always wanting to know how long to the next stop. ;-)
Oops... incomplete edit. I didn't suddenly become Italian. ;-)
