I want this to be a fabulous year. I want to change a few things in my life, permanently. I want to quit telling myself I'm old. I've been telling myself that since I was 25 and it's ridiculous. So I'm stopping. I want to have a better attitude, more patience, more tolerance & gratitude. This will take some effort but will be well worth it, I think. I sat down today to make a list of things I'm grateful for and it ended up being quite lengthy. Of course, I'm most grateful for my family, our good health, safety and security. But there are tons of simple little things that make me really happy and I want to spend more time enjoying them. And I'm going to. Here are a few of my favorite things (not in any particular order)
Homemade bread
black & white movies
period films and sagas
candle light
reading a good book
cozy fires and hot chocolate
snow storms
thunderstorms
vegetable gardens
visiting my mom
facials
laughing at my kids
astronamy
singing
writing
porch swings
pot roast with mash potatoes and a roll
being with my sister
tomatoes from my garden
family dinners
a clean, shiny bathtub

You had me all teary eyed! So I just have to say ditto. Loved the video--hilarious!!
I want more video... ha ha I would love to hang and do Kareoke with James... he is a funny guy... and great goals girl... I was just teasing you on Tricia's blog about you being old... obviously your really not... funny how the older you get the younger 30 anything is... we are in our prime baby!!! for reals... your such an inspiration. love your posts....
Can James recreate this at the next Pack meeting? You could be his back up singer, Chase could play a wicked air guitar-c'mon let's do it! Or better yet, why not start a Karaoke special interest group! And remember -Your only as old as you want to be!
I love the list, so cool. I want to hear you and James do a duet next sacrament meeting. Love it
