Not in order.....


Still on my list are...

*dacshunds running (have you ever seen the wiener dog races???? tooo hilarious. Popular breed here now. So jealous)
*my chair in my study (I have a great little posture chair but I'm always in the slouchy comfy chair with laptop on lap)
*view outside my study (recently there are butterflies living a life and death saga with all the birds)
*hubby (he's just so cute when he's not pissing me off! :) )

new to list...
*my photo
*this chocolate almond croissant i can get near work (I know it will stay on my ass forever but they are sooooo good)
*new black wool skirt that I got from Jess (overpriced but comfy&stylish at the same time! considering rate of wear, maybe it IS a deal)
*a thai gazpacho soup recipe that I got from a yoga magazine (still tasty with out the required deveined lime leaves which I have never seen sold in 3 countries)
*my scanner and printer because it is SAVING me heaps in the photo development dept (I still prefer film to digital, but digital is best for experimenting on the cheap)

Well, that is it for now I guess.

You folks have any current favorites?

Sitting on the couch watching tv and practicing self-loathing. Er...perhaps that's not exactly what you meant. How about:

-A clean house (but I dislike the part where i have to clean it)

-Reading a really good book while the sun shines in the window and keeps me warm (but not too warm)

-The discovery of this really good Ben & Jerry's chocolate ice cream

Cordi, I see we have a few things in common!

Self-loathing especially when I have stuff to do and I'm ignoring them by being lazy!

I also love:

Sunday afternoons in the pool with my kids, with the sun shining and it's a beautiful day! (especially when I've already done my housework and cooking!)

A really good cup of tea.

A really good cup of hot chocolate right before bed!

Doing crazy dance with my 3 year old to her fav CD!

My 16 year old flat ironing my hair, or giving me a massage or chatting away about her world!

Getting through a book on my reading list!

Getting time to read a book!

Giving myself a facial.

Sleeping in on the weekends (til 9 or 10!)

Turning the alarm off and getting another 10 mins of sleep!

Getting a foot massage from my hubby (which usually ends up just the way he likes!)

I like your fav things Momijiki. I haven't seen the weiner races but I do enjoy watching the dog shows!

Fun to read everyone's favorites. Really interesting way to get a glimpse into someone else's life.

I was laughing about the housecleaning Cordi. I am with you on that 100%

Turning the alarm off and getting another 10 mins of sleep!


I love it, too but I find that to be one of the most dangerous things. Oddly, I seem to get my deepest sleep after that happens and have missed the next alarm and then gotten up late. The ensuing panic joined by the frantic cussing and searching for clothes that match are just not worth it.

I'm jealous. Sigh... I really want a dog but hubby is allergic and we will be in an apartment for sometime yet.

Hahaha...my cure for this is to have my clothes and my toddler's clothes laid out the night before. That way I already know what everyone is wearing! Plus the bags are already packed and at the door! But yeah, somehow those additional ten minutes usually turn out to be the time when you get the most sleep!
