What makes me happy??


Greetings all!

Apologies, for it has been 5 days since my last confe....uh...blog! LOL!
Things have been pretty hectic around these parts! Lots of new stuff going on...but all is well!
I can't believe it has been since Tues since I last wrote...where do the days, go??

Anyway, ALL kinds of things swirling through this crazy, little mind of mine lately. I have actually typed out three other different blogs, but I'm not "feelin'" them tonight. So I think I will just babble for a bit before I go to bed.

This weekend was a gorgeous weekend, however, it was stifled a bit because I got this pesky summer cold that always seems to catch me on the nicest weekend! SO...I really didn't get to do much of anything! But that is ok. I guess sometimes, that is a good thing?! Right?!?

Anyway, there are LOTS of things going on lately. Lots of new "places of life" I am in. It is interesting because some of the things that are changing are things I thought I really wanted. And now, here they are, starting to line up before me and I have all kinds of mixed feelings about them. Insanity! What can make this girl happy?

Well...I don't know...but I DO know that speaking of happy, I was thinking about it the other day. I have made a list. Things that make Lizzie happy....
(in no particular order)

* When it rains
* Cold weather to come in from and have chocolate abuelita
* Bahama bucks
* Spending time with my family
* Rockin' out with my band, "The Gnomes" (Rock band, of course)
* Horses, cows and the smell of the country
* A nice, long ride on my ol girl (especially if I can see my Pappy in my rear view mirror)
* Lying on my Nanny's lap as she plays with my hair
* WH, Grandy's or PPP w/ my BFF, Becky-weks
* Dancin'
* Laughing....(duh, right?)
* Hearing Abby say, "Ticka" (she can't say Tia, so it's her name for me and it makes me happy!)
* Getting comments on my blogs (uh....hint, hint)
* Hearing from kids of yesteryear...I can't believe time flies!
* Sitting in my sis' craft room chatting late at night
* Tryin' new restaurants
* A good wine with a great meal
* Havin' lunch with my lil bro
* Seeing how frustrated my sis and bro get that I don't know names, words or artists of songs!
