A Few of My Favorite Things...Lately

*new friends.

*the fact that peppermint mocha creamer is now available year round.

*& also the fact that my beloved pumpkin spice latte will be at Starbucks in just a few weeks...which, if you ask me, is the official beginning of fall.

*but until then, my newly-discovered Starbucks favorite, Mocha Coconut Latte (which I think should be called Mochanut, though the name is a bit misleading in describing the drink).  I fear this is only a summer drink & I'll be heartbroken soon.  [Disclaimer: I realize that this is starting to sound like I live at Starbucks.  Quite the contrary, I rarely can justify spending $4 on coffee...I just really love it.]

*the possibility of going to Haiti this spring.

*looking at cars online, though it stresses me out a bit.  And sometimes a lot.

*my checkbook balancing perfectly.

*coming to the end of the month & realizing that I have extra money that I wasn't expecting, aka extra money for the car fund.

*sketching & planning some new ideas for my shop.

*running again, & progressing surprisingly faster than I thought I would.  Though it's not easy & not always usually fun.

*the fact that tomorrow is September!

*thinking about wearing boots soon.  & knitting more scarves. 

*everything about Pinterest.

*editing the website at work.  Dorky, I know.  I didn't realize that I missed things like that.  Don't get me wrong...I don't miss class, or tests, or homework, but apparently I miss writing, revising, & editing papers.

*I think I just miss writing in general.  You'd think that'd mean I'd blog more.  And I really want to...I'm just suffering from a lack of topics, lately.  Suggestions are always welcome!

*The Glades.  I've decided that, from now on, I will only be watching shows recommended to me by my brother.  Those are the ones that I always end up liking.

Ok, I'm sure this list is already too long for any normal human being to find interesting...but it was my attempt at blogging for the first time in five days.

  5. I am also a coffee lover, and the thought of pumpkin spice lattes is making me actually excited for fall, even though I don't really want summer to end! I'm a warm weather girl.
