A few things keeping me happy.

It’s been a while since I’ve written something fun, here are some things making me happy this December.

• Double glazing.

• Keeping my one plant alive

• Watching Derry Girls.

• Letting Fred walk the hood with two chicken bones stuffed in his mouth.

• Stitching my 15 year old shorts.

• Looking at my party dress thinking, not yet baby..

• Putting a curse on burglars.

• Tossing out the single socks.

• Going to bed an hour earlier each night, waking an hour earlier each morning.

• Looking at Facebook before I go to bed. (I mean, OBVIOUSLY)

• Meeting friends on the corner to exchange books. And avocados.

• Keeping the coffee shop alive with twice daily cappuccinos.

• Exploring all the different types of babkas.

• Learning how to bake babka.

• Buying wine based on the label. I recommend Asylum.

• Avoiding my bank account.

• Counting the oranges on my orange tree. There are seven new ones.

• Watching nature change.

• Taking in every sunset.

• KABOOMING the hadedas.

• Allowing the carpenter bees to drill homes into my rafters.

• And telling the people that I love I love them.

Happy Holidays friends. I love you.
