Ten Things that I Love Today

Ten things I love today.
One. Opening up my eyes every morning and falling in love, again and again. I can't even put into words how much in love I am. We are. Life is good.

Two. The way Ollie pouts his lip when he sleeps. His under-bite is to die for. He will always be our baby. And, the squeaks Charlie makes when I cuddle him. Every morning I pull the covers back and say "Time to wake up!" and then cuddle Charlie for a minute before we get out of bed. He stretches and squeaks. It melts my heart.

Three. California sun., there really is nothing like it. My shoulders are bronze, my hair is healthy, and eyes are bright. I thank the glow of this sunshine for that. (We missed you these past few days, and sorry to hear you'll be hiding for the next few days, mister sun.)

Four. Getting a really awesome compliment from an old timer at work today. Sincere and heartwarming.

Five. Leaning against the bar with a fresh cup of coffee first thing in the morning, while I take inventory of my cases and write my lists for the day. It is very rewarding to see what has sold and what new experiments have been successful.

Six. Listening to this song this morning and daydreaming all day long.

Seven. BBQ potato chips and finishing a book that I have been devouring all week. I still don't quite know how I feel about the ending.

Eight. Knowing that tomorrow is our day off and we get to sleep in, and then go adventuring all day!

Nine. These beauties.

Ten. My bangs are finally growing out. I think I'm going to cut them straight again tonight, I'm over the angle.

What are you loving today?

Beca

(PS, One thing I don't love are TWO new oven pan burns messing up my tattoos!! Boo!)

  1. Beca, I want to visit the beach you described in your comment! It sounds awesome, as does your California sun. Wish I could just go to San Diego for the weekend. :)
