Color Me Happy

Happy Friday peeps!!! Morning Runner tagged me to list 10 Things that made me HAPPY and tag 10 more people to do it. I don't know about you but Friday certainly makes me Happy, but here are a few more things...
  1. The Little Things... Like random text messages that have seemingly nothing to do with anything at all but totally crack you up or coming across an unexpected smile while walking down the street...

  2. Getting lost in a good book... Despite working two jobs and running ungodly amounts of miles, I still manage to devour books on the regular, that's how I spend my "Me" time.



  3. The Color Pink... Its been my happy color for years. Something about it just puts a pep in my step and a smile on my face. Why else would I love Flamingo's so d@mn much?

  4. Chocolate Chip Cookies... My kryptonite.
  5. Mulberry Scented Candles... They remind me of my little brothers for some reason.
  6. Blogging/Blog Buddies... Since starting this blog I have found a never ending outlet of support, encouragement, inspiration, understanding, advice and friendships. Writing this blog makes me happy for so many reasons! Thanks for reading!

  7. Baby RJ... He makes my heart smile every time I see him.


  8. Spike... He is the most amazing man I have ever met and makes me happier than I've ever been.

  9. My Friends... They are my Family down here in Florida and I don't know how I would have survived that last 10 years without them. They are a constant source of encouragement, support, inspiration and entertainment... mixed with a whole lot of amazing and fun!


  10. The Joy of a Good Run... Needs no explanation.

Who to tag, who to tag... How about:

Adam - I am Boring
littlerunner
Maureen - Mo Sho Runs

Muddy Runner
Harold - My World Thru the Lens

Sun Runner - Running into the Sun

Kids in baskets will always be cute. I said it. I'm a guy and I can admit it. <3 (wait, did using the <3 make me less of a guy? Damn it....)

Great list -- love the pics.

Mike Russell said...

You need a Kindle. I love mine. I am/was a bibliophile and loved, loved, loved books. I got a Kindle and cannot believe the convenience of taking that thing everywhere with me.

Great list...

Shelly Rayedeane said...

Again, thank you for all the wonderful pictures. You really do inspire me to want to do more with my life.

Amber (Girl with the red hair) said...

Awww what a great feel-good Friday post! Love it!

Have a good weekend, beauty! XO

Christy said...

You and I MUST converse about books! Hello! English major here! When I get into a really good book everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, gets put off. Cleaning, eating, showering, running, sleeping...books will be the death of me, I know it.

Living and Loving in L.A. said...

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy you're happy, my love!
Happy weekend to you while you're at it!!!
XOXO,
Erin

Libby said...

I love anything pink too :) In my hometown there was something called Pink Flamingo Festival. I love chocolate chip cookies (and dough). My dad and I are the cookie monsters of the house.

ajh said...

I also love Friday, pink, long runs, blogging and books. Where are you in that great picture of you and Spike?

Yasi said...

That's a great list! You've got lots to be happy about. There's a random heart spray painted in the middle of the road near my house and every time I bike/run by it I always smile.

Kerrie T. said...

I always leave your blog with a smile on my face. :)

I RUN LIKE A GIRL said...

Katie said...

Great list! Baby RJ is soo cute!

lindsay said...

i'm a negative nancy today, probably because it's a moody monday thanks to work. i could go for some chocolate chip cookies right now though, and a good run, and a good cup o' coffee (vs this free office-provided crap).

anyway. i figured you'd be all over my case so here i am commenting 3 days late. sorry for my moodiness. your list of happiness helped like, 2%. :)

ultrarunner (Brian Philpot) said...
