Spin Cycle – Love!


This week’s theme is “Things I love…” which is really awesome because I have been needing to make a list.

Second Blooming

  • Dusk; just as the sun is the lowest in the sky before dipping below the horizon
  • Any song from Jimmy Buffett’s album “Boats, Beaches, Bars, and Ballads.”
  • Fireflies in my yard during the summer months
  • Trail running, though I rarely do it
  • Random acts of kindness
  • Naps
  • Thinking about beach vacations
  • Lattes
  • Pens and pencils/ writing on actual paper
  • Days when my kids are so kind to me and each other
  • Days when my children sleep in
  • Days when I don’t feel exasperated by everything
  • The OPI nail polish color “Dusk over Cairo”
  • Driving by myself in the evenings to the store
  • Leather-bound books
  • Non-fiction books
  • Romance books (but not all)
  • Buying a new pair of jeans
  • Taking mini-work vacations (i.e. close out your browser and listen to music for ten minutes.)
  • Blogging
  • These guys:

That’s about all I can think of for now. How abotu you? What do you love?

  1. LOVE that picture! So full of life and love! Wonderful list. I envy your fireflies, I used to love them as a kid. And I completely identify the driving alone to the store at night thing. Ah.

    You are linked!

  2. That’s a wonderful list of things to love – and that picture of your boys is priceless, so awesome!!

    I just read your comment on my blog post from yesterday – I don’t have an email address to write you back, but that’s soooo cool that you spent time in Arnprior & Cobden…I literally live like half an hour away from there! I have aunts & uncles that live in Arnprior, and there’s a little Celtic store in Cobden that I love to visit. It’s literally my back yard. We’re across the river on the Quebec side, but not far from there at all. Small world, huh?? 🙂

  3. Yep. Books. I would be so lost without them.
    Sleeping in. Heaven.
    I long for a beach vacation. I’m hoping the lake we visit this summer will give me the beach feel.
    My guys. They make my world go round.
