3. The feeling you have when you wake up and KNOW you had a deep sleep.
4. A stomach ache going away with no medicine
5. Getting a text in the middle of the day for no reason.
6. When the traffic is moving fast so you can too
7. Getting $30 off when it should have only been $20 and not realizing it until too late so you don’t have to feel too bad about it
8. Laughing at my dad humming to a song.
9. Getting ALL of your laundry done so that all of your clothes are clean – until you take off the clothes you are wearing.
10. Fun size candy – could be very good (if you only eat one) or very bad (if you eat 10 because you think, “hey they’re small!”)
I’m so excited your blog has become so popular! I hope I get to read more and more people posting everyday!
Love,
Meg
