Working at the Car Wash

May 1's 10 Things to Be Happy About

1. A Sunday Morning Car Wash - You could have a car wash on any morning but everyone feels like they should donate money after church so that students can raise money for whatever they are trying to raise it for. It also means that you're starting out the week with a pretty clean car.

2. Dog Paws - I love my dog's paws even when she leaves dirty paw prints all over the floor or me when she's excited and jumps up on me. I miss my puppy dog.

3. Poison Ivy-Free Gardening - I mean why would anyone have poison ivy in their garden? The worst is if you do have it and you don't know what it looks like so you manage to get it on you. Poison ivy is the worst thing to get on you and itches like there's no tomorrow.

4. Steak Salad - I'm not a big fan of steak so I'm biased but chicken Caesar salad is absolutely delicious.

5. Flowers Basking in the Sun - They seem so much more colorful when the sun is out along with the fact that they've probably gotten enough water to feel peachy keen. I really think that flowers in the sun just seem much happier than when they are stuck out in the rain for days.

6. Cattails in the Marsh - They are so soft and fuzzy and cool looking. I remember taking one apart in my biology class in high school to look at the insides of it and it was a really cool experience.

7. Sunflower Yellow - This describes my personality apparently. Sunflowers are just a brighter yellow than any other yellow. It's really funny because it sounds like it should be a crayon color...or maybe it already is a crayon color.

8. Maine Seafood - No other state in the U.S. can beat Maine lobster. It is the best lobster that I've ever had and I really don't think that anyone can even compete with Maine lobster.

9. Sun Puddles - When it's so hot and the sun causes the little crevices in the ground to look like there is actually water in them it's really funny. I don't like it though because I love to puddle stomp and I get excited when there are puddles to go into and then they aren't really there.

10. A Breakfast Buffet - I love going to these because they are delicious. On my mom's birthday we actually had a small breakfast buffet with our best friends. The food was absolutely delicious and mom made sticky buns to contribute to the lovely spread of food.
