What makes Joelle happy
Written by Joelle Cadieux (commented on by moi)
1. As a kid, racing home from school on a hot May-June day (remember when we actually had those) to go swimming in the pool and staying there until it got dark.
2. The last day of school. Singing "no more pencils, no more books..." and carrying ALL of your stuff home. As a teacher, this is the saddest day of the year...bwahahaahaha!
3. Sleepovers
4. My morning/afternoon cup(s) of coffee
5. Someone bringing me a cup of coffee that I didn't even expect/ask for. So awesome: fully agree!
6. Saving money. Even if it's on something I don't need. I LOVE a deal.
7. Vacations, no wait, PAID vacations!
8. REAL mail that isn't a bill, addressed to ME and not the "current occupant"
9. Cooking for more than one
10. Snuggling with someone I care about Seriously? Ew.
11. Having a tan (weird I know, but I hate looking like Casper; so sickly)
12. Flyers. I love flyers, looking at all the deals, someone else telling me about all the possibilities and things that I didn't even know I needed
13. Girl's night (I don't know what happened to these, but I'd like them back, please) You got 'em! We'll do it up right come July!
14. Long Weekends!
15. Free stuff in any form, even if it's completely useless - if it's free I'll take it and be HAPPY
16. Homecomings of those I love Swoon
17. Procrastination whilst at work (did you know that I could go to Cuba in 2 weeks for under $600 taxes in? I discovered that today with extensive research before doing this)
18. Finding money in an item of clothing that you haven't worn for some time
19. The beach
20. A hot bath in a freshly scrubbed tub (with bubbles, of course)
21. Puppies and kittens and babies (they really do make me happy) Namely our baby, I'm sure.
22. A fresh, inspired new 'do, or let's be honest an refreshed version of the same old look that I really like sporting
23. A phone call from a boy whom you barely know, but know you that you are madly in love with (or in lust with depending on your age)
24. Praise for a job well done (after actually putting a lot of effort into something, not those times where everyone else thinks that it took a lot of effort but you really just through it all together at the last minute, but you're so mart that it simply resembles something with a lot of time put into it)
25. Cottaging
26. Getting into my warmed-from-the-sun car, and finding that the air freshener that I thought needed to be replaced, has been awaken by the smidge of heat and now smells fantastic.
27. Wine Need she say more?
28. High school movies, not necessarily movies from when WE were in high school (although those are classics), but movies about being in high school. I have no idea why. I have a boy/man crush on Zac Efron. Pretty sure this makes me at least a bit perverse. And I love it.
