UNimportant Things That Make Me Happy

The UnOrganized Mom tagged me and asked that I please list 6 unimportant things that make me happy.

THIS is a very easy tag for me...it is often the little things that bring me pure bliss, you might recall THIS post about this very topic...while those little things i listed there aren't quite unimportant (in fact they could very well be the opposite) they are little things and often the little things are actually big things...but I digress...on to the UNIMPORTANT things...being unimportant they are obviously in no particular order...

1. My small addiction to Scrabble on Facebook! I love having a few games going at once for days at a time. It is super fun to have something to go to when I am downloading music, uploading pictures to the blog or just have a little downtime. It is also a fun thing to do with friends (holla! Anne) and family who live far away...if we are facebook friends..let's play!!

2. A large delicious Diet Pepsi over crushed ice, in a cup with a lid and a straw. It tastes even better when it is delivered with LOVE by Big Daddy....mmmm refreshing!3. This is a snapshot I took of our bed one morning about a year ago. I took it because as you can see the red and purple pillows are WAAAY over on the "other side" of the bed. Those red and purple pillows are mine, in an upside down V formation and yes they are toward the center of that king sized bed...it would appear that I am not capable of staying on my own side. THAT assumption would be wrong...you see the whole bed is MY side, Big Daddy gets whatever is left over...it's a little thing but it makes me VERY happy that my darling hubz puts up with my crazy sleeping (and non sleeping) issues. 4. Freshly painted pink toes...oh the goodness of a pedicure! 5. These DARLING salt and pepper shakers. I fell in looooove with them on a little day trip to Sausalito. We went there for my birthday and when I saw these little guys in a store I knew they needed to come home with me. Every time I use them I smile. 6. Pineapple Cilantro candles from Illuminations...they smell soooooo good!!

Photobucketif you feel like playing...I tag you!

There is just something sooo refreshing about a cool drink over crushed ice! A girl after my own heart!

Vivienne said...

Pineapple Cilantro are my very favorites for spring and summer, Pumpkin Pie for fall and Vanilla Poundcake for winter. Illuminations is the best!

Suzanne said...

Oh my gosh...Illuminations! I used to LOVE that store but I thought they all went out. Now I need to google them because I want some candles:-) Love your unimportant list.

Anne said...

I am so pleased that Scrabble was at the top of the list...or should I say Scrabble Addiction! Thanks for being one of my scrabble buddies!

McFadden Family said...

Brittany Ann said...

I've never heard of illuminations. Sometimes I think I'm way behind. Your happy things all sound delgithful!

Jen said...

We have a king size bed and I take up 3/4 of it sometimes sleeping on an angle. Scrabble on facebook? I'll have to try that out. I've been addicted to Tetris on Facebook and need a new challenge.

banananutmeg said...

pineapple cilantro? I am dying to smell that...does it just smell like summertime? Yum.

love me some pink piggies, too.
good post.

MiMi said...

We don't even have an Illuminations store around here! I wanna go sniffing in there!
All of your little things are just small parts of much bigger, wonderful things! : )
Your blog always makes me happy!

Cadance said...

Great list....my almost 4 year old is looking at your pictures along with me...and ♥'s the salt and pepper shakers too! Very cute...they would make me smile too!

Lynn said...

Love your blog! The way the dandelion seeds float around!
Way cute!
Cute family, also.

He And Me + 3 said...

Those were great and I would have to agree wiht you on the pedicure thing!

Michelle said...

That was a fun tag. I'm a pepsi fan too.....but it has to be regular pepsi out of a fountain. :)

Joann said...

What a great 'feel-good' post... maybe I'll think of a few things and post mine!!

Kelly said...

All great things! I love the Pepsi over ice thing but mine would be Coke. It's amazing how that can give you a quick feeling of "ahhhhh" and it's such a little thing.

BackStage said...

I adore those salt and pepper shakers....made me smile!

Marla said...

no better way to have a diet pepsi... now i'm heading to the last person who commented backstage...

Marla said...

and now to kelly because backstage doesn't have a blog i can follow...

Linda @ My Trendy Tykes said...

I'll take a Pepsi over crushed ice in a styrofoam cup with a straw!

Pass that pink nail polish too....my toenails need another coat!

Charmingly Cheap said...

I can't tell you how much I love a Diet Coke (or Pepsi) from the fountain with crushed ice and straw! Somehow it tastes much better from the fountain than from a bottle or can! My friends always laugh at me but now I know I am not the only one :)

PS - Thanks for stopping by my blog!

Shar said...

I like #2, except that I'd swap that with Diet Coke and add some lime wedges. Yum.

lynn said...

What fun post. I may give it a try too!
