    Inspired by Superfantastic

    SuperFantastic Lori hosted another Love List.  Which, in turn, of course, inspired me to post mine. So, here are the things I love at this moment.  Being a woman I reserve the right to change the status of any given loved item at any given point in time with no advance warning, no notification and no concern for other's.
     
    I'll right off, agree with Lori about Thunderstorms.  As long as I am safely in doors under a roof of some sort.  (long story to be had here, ask me about it sometime)
     
    Digiorno pizzas.  Without question, close enough to Papa John's to keep my broke arse happy on a Friday movie night.
     
    Splenda.  A recent addition ... just this morning in fact.  Realized that maybe I can handle it better than sweetner and help my waistline a bit in the process!
     
    Friday Nights when I do NOT have to be ANYWHERE on Saturday morning.  Means I can stay up as late as I'd like with no regard for an alarm clock.
     
    Saturdays when I have no particular plans and can laze around until I actually am bored, generally around 3 pm.
     
    Oversize, worn in perfectly, comfy sweats.  L-O-V-E them.  I have a handful of sweatshirts and a few pairs of sweatpants and I love nothing more than to come home after work, get out of the work outfits*, and get my sweats on.  *is because the work outfits are doubly uncomfortable for the fact that they BARELY fit anymore because I've regained basically all the weight I lost last year.  Crying  So, the loving of the sweats goes to a whole new level.
     
    My 300 thread count sheets.  I'm still gunning for sheets with a slightly higher thread count because in my mind I can extrapolate the higher comfort factor, but I love getting into bed at night and rubbing my feet around just to feel the softness of the sheets.
     
    I gotta say these two, my co-worker, Jen, and my Curves friend, Leslie.  Jen, under a completely different title, basically did my job before I started.  She gets it and she gets all the idiosycratic bullhonkey I deal with every day.  She has become my sanity ... and she shares my coffee habit.    Leslie? She emails me.  She emails me goofy, funny, chatty emails ... AND she makes me work out.  I need that. I can't even begin to imagine how many times I've almost decided to just come home rather than work out but instead I stick to my plan because i know Leslie will be there waiting for me and I'll HEAR about it if I skip out on her.
     
    New addition, The Christian Manifesto.  That's the website I write movie reviews for.  It gives me a direction in my writing and practice.  Love that.  AND C.E. the guy running that particular peanut stand, is SUPER GREAT and I enjoy writing for him.  If only I can get my writing going in other areas maybe I could actually GO SOMEWHERE with it!
     
    Another new addition to my world, L'Bri!!  It is a direct-sales skincare program that is Aloe-based and as pure and natural as you can get and still be manmade.  I've just signed up to be your Aloe Lady, so go check out my PERSONAL WEBSITE here to see what you think!  Feel free to order a free sample or pay for a whole set!  Let me know if you've got questions.
     
    The quiet of a life filled only with white noise.  I put in that last link and sat here looking around for a few minutes to see if I could spy anything else I should include, since it felt odd to end the list on what is basically a mini-sales pitch.  And I thought "hm, an apartment to myself.  oh oh a balcony.  hmmm,  THE QUIET.  The only noise I can hear right now is the refrigerator over the constant ringing in my ears.  And clocks ticking.  It's lovely.  reason number 216 why  LOVE having my own apartment.  Oh, that too ... MY OWN APARTMENT!!!  (Even if I am a greedy little bugger and already gunning to get a better place that has a garage and a dishwasher by fall.)
