I like lists. I like having lots of lists in one place.
Good Things
The smell of the air conditioner in my truck
Waking up to realize you still get to sleep for a few more hours
When dogs jump into bed while you’re napping to cuddle
Boys who walk me to my car
This drawing:
Straws
Boys in ties
Texas Roadhouse
Cat sneezes
Boys that smell good
Traveling, 28 States Down! (How have I not been to two that border my home state?)

Phoenix drivers
People who don’t listen
When people don’t return emails, texts or calls.
Radio

Blogs you should read, and maybe a little glimpse as to why.
A Softer World Hey, it’s me. I meant to take the kids and the cat to the park. But I guess we kept driving. Anyway, you should change that message.
