First of all, there are two parts to the tag. The first part is
Ten things that make me happy.
1. (A)Having all of my kids home at the same time... happens rarely so (B) Going to see my children and grandchildren. (C) A phone call especially when Skyping is involved. I need to do it more.
2. A day without an alarm clock.
3. Unexpected money in the mail. But in reality, how often does that happen?
4. A clean house
5. Finishing everything on my "to do" list before I go to bed
6. Being told I look nice
7. A job well done
8. Starting the day with a brisk walk
9. Running in to an old friend
10. When I think of something nice to do for someone without waiting for an assignment
The next part is
Ten honest facts about myself
1. Sometimes I have too high an opinion of myself.
2. There are nights when dinner consists of chocolate cake or some other un-healthy option because I don't like fixing dinner for one.
3. I take so long to fix my hair in the morning, that often my bathroom is a disaster when I leave for work
4. I hate to empty the dishwasher. Sometimes days go by that I wash the dishes by hand just so I don't have to empty the dishwasher.
5. Although I do my laundry regularly, I don't like to fold it. Some weeks I take my clean clothes out of the basket for several days before I get around to folding it. (I've developed some bad habits since I've lived alone).
6. I can't click my fingers
7. I don't smile enough. I'm happier inside than I look on the outside.
8. I haven't read or watched any of the the Harry Potter or Twilight series nor do I intend to
9. Often when I clean the house, I turn the music in my house up full blast until the walls rattle.
10. I had dreams of being a Broadway dancer. Apparently I think I can dance way better than I really can.
Well, this is probably too much information but there you have it.
Debbie Whipple, this one is going out to you. Tag, you're it!

not too much info at all! it was fun learning some things about you! i also hate unloading the dishwasher AND folding laundry!
I solve the folding laundry thing by popping in a video and fold while I watch a movie. But you're not much of a TV watcher are you? Good list though.
WOW- that was fun! I think I may have to do that one! I love all that you love, and honestly, I am a lot like that too! Thanks for sharing!
OH, and you ALWAYS look nice!
I love it!! You're the best!
First off I'd like you say that I think you always look nice! You are such a stylish lady.
Loved your 10 honest things.
I don't think chocolate cake for dinner is so bad.
I also HATE to fold laundry. I too will take from the clean pile.
And I too, spend way too much time on my hair in the mornings. I wish I didn't. I have tried to cut it down, but I just can't.
woops, I meant first off I'd like to say...
not you say...
:)
Lauri,
I had to laugh when I read that you too hate to unload the dishwasher. I JUST put a post on my blog with that very thing listed. And I too, will wash by hand to avoid it! I enjoyed reading this post. And I, like you, have been known to play music at earth shattering volumes while doing housework!!!
: )
This was really fun. I LOVED reading all of it! I miss you. What's it been, like 7 years since I've seen you?
Hi again Lauri,
Just wanted to say that I am so glad you blogged about The Guernsey book. It was so so good. I loved every minute of it. Thanks for sharing about it. :)
Fun to read! I love turning the music up while cleaning too. It definitely helps.
I'm reading backwards here and I thought the above list was another post. Now I read it-funny how its so entertaining to read things like that about other people. ps, you look nice! (For real, that's a great picture.) Also, I love the CTR princess capes!! What a great idea!!
