My list of ten

I read this article this morning hoping for some inspiration- it was just what I needed-
breaking up with your ideal self
heaven knows I need to do this but it's SUPER hard! I've always had an image I strived to project and I usually achieve it. But it's my future self that I have a hard time with- especially when My future is so hazy and uncertain.

So instead of thinking about my future this morning I will take this article's advice
list of ten
Here is my list of ten things I love right now.


1. Frozen peach smoothies

2. My cozy bed piled high with blankets and plush pillows

3. When my pup sprints out of the kennel to jump on me every morning

4. The way my body feels like a rock star after a yoga class

5. My husbands healthy cooking

6. Watching my husband cook with that concentrated face

7. The apple cinnamon smell of my classroom when I walk in (thanks to my fabulous TA)

8. When my students surprise me and bring me apples in the morning

9. Downton Abbey episodes that make you laugh and cry and giggle like a 12 year old

10. Puppy snuggles


There's a lot of good in this life right now. I just forget sometimes.
