Simple joys

For one who has found, to her dismay, that she has expensive tastes it's nice to slow down and enjoy simpler pleasures. (Ha! for those of you who thought I'd just stand on a soap box all day).

A trip to the party store with a roomie and a stop at Starbucks on the way home.

Keeping another roomie company while she irons and talking about family and childhood memories.

Writing down three new quotes for the Bonsai House quote book.

Cooking. I find I enjoy this very much :)

Orchids. I love these flowers! Hoping the yo-yo TX weather doesn't kill them.

The hope of yet another snowfall. Will we wake up next morning to a white wonderland?

Appreciating the hard-working coworkers around me. Especially when their absence is felt!

Puddle-jumping! Wish I had rain boots. Although last summer roomies and I just went bare foot and played in the storm.

Reading a good book. I recently went to a bookstore with a friend and she pointed out several novels I've not read yet. I'm excited to find new friends in these books!
