Smell the air fresheners

Sometimes, when a day hands you piles of poop, you really need to stop and smell the air fresheners. 

So here's 10 simple, first world things I'm grateful for today:

1. Fuzzy socks. I have an obsession. Possibly a psychotic one. I have to wear them everyday from October through February. In fact, I have to buy new pairs every year because between those months I wear them out with holes.

2.  Paint. Oh the possibilities...

3.  Crockpots. Cold, busy days allow for warm, home-cooked meals.

4. Sunshine. Even if it's 15 degrees out, the shining sun really rocks.

5.  Alone time. I CHERISH nap/rest time between 1-3 in the afternoon. Don't judge...you secretly can't wait for naptime either 😉

6.  Christmas time. People either love it or hate it. I wish we could have Christmas once a month.

7.  Ranch dressing. It's worthy of its own number, amiright? (By the way, you can buy Mams Jeans homemade buttermilk ranch dressing by the tub. I bought a pound. Heaven!) 

8.  Gift bags. Because after 38 presents wrapped in wrapping paper and fancy bows, Hallmark gift bags saved my sanity. 

9.  Sandi Krakowski. If you have never heard of her, Facebook her. She will change your life. 

10.  Grace. It deserves the number 10 spot because without grace I don't know where id be... Actually I do, and it's super hot there. 

What are some things you're grateful for? Id love to hear! Taking 5 minutes out of your day to think of some things you are blessed with is scientifically proven to boost the serotonin levels in your brain. And we all know serotonin makes you happy. ("And happy people don't shoot their husbands"---name that chic flick!) 

Of course in grateful today for these two, but that's a given.
