May 14's 10 Things to Be Happy About

1. Descriptive Adjectives - There are just so many and they make me happy because I know so many and it makes it so much easier to describe things that people don't understand. It also helps when you are giving someone directions because you can help them find where they are going.

2. The Cool Sounds of Nature - I love the sounds of nature in the summer because they are so relaxing and they help me to sleep at night. When I was younger and we would have dinner at my grandparents in the summer we would set out by there small fountain and there would always be a frog that would talk to my grandfather and when he would talk back I thought it was the coolest thing since sliced bread.

3. A Crabcake Sandwich - Never had one but I absolutely love crab cake. It's always delicious at the few places that I've had it. I try not to eat it too often though because I'm worried that I'll grow into the allergy like my relatives have.

4. Storybook Endings - Most people don't think that they exist but I do. Maybe not the exact ending of some fairytale but those sort of things do exist whether people want to believe it or not. Maybe people are too busy working, or being mad at their spouse but you know if you tried a little harder maybe you could have that fairytale ending that you wanted, it all depends on the effort you put into it.

5. Electric Razors - I already have a hard enough time with regular razors, why would I switch to something that would more than likely hurt me? I've heard it before that regular razors give you a better shave anyway.

6. A Thesaurus When You Need It - There's always one online at dictionary.com. I like using that because it's faster than using a book thesaurus and it has more words that you can use.

7. Spectacular Sunsets - When staying at the lake house up in Vermont, looking over the lake as the sun sets is always an amazing view because you never know what you'll get. When it is many different colors and it reflects across the lake it is an absolutely amazing view. I just love to sit and watch the colors change as the sun slowly sets over the horizon.

8. A Baby Asleep - If it's been crying all day it's always nice to have some peace and quiet for a while. My aunt and uncle have an 10 month old baby and when he was first around he would cry all the time and barely sleep so they were pretty happy when he would decide to sleep because it would be quiet and they could pass out for a little while.

9. Wearing Shorts - It's still chilly and it's the middle of May. I would love to wear shorts but it's a little cold. When it gets to the point when I can wear shorts all of the time. I'll be a pretty happy camper. I love to walk around in shorts.

10. Wiggling Ears - Anyone who can do this is funny in my book. I wish that I could do it but unfortunately I can't.
