10 Things That Make Her Happy

A Butterfly Moment lists "10 things that make me happier than they probably should":

  • Free chai lattes. The free ones taste so much better than the ones I buy for myself or make at home.
  • A gift of flowers. I love flowers. Love them. But I, nor they, should be happy when I am in charge of them. I can kill a cactus. Can and have.
  • A brand new box of crayons. They are so perfect and lovely. I almost hate to let my students use them.
  • Clearance sales. I have to repeat to myself over and over, "Just because it's cheap doesn't mean you need it."
  • Reality tv. It's one of my guilty pleasures. Survivor, American Idol, Pawn Stars, Deadliest Catch...
  • Full list here.

Question: What's something that makes you happier than it should?
