Fortuosity

In no particular order ten things I am particularly grateful for this week.


  1. We thoroughly enjoy our family on both my side and my husbands. We spend loads of time with them because we really do like them. I know not everyone loves to spend time with family so I think we are pretty lucky; not a bad one in the lot.
  2. My job.
  3. Avocados
  4. Crossing things off my to-do list
  5. Early morning cuddling 
  6. Creamies
  7. Catching up with an old friend (which meant 30 minutes of solid laughing on the phone) 
  8. Ice cold, filtered water
  9. That a 45 minute drive could get me to any one of 8 temples. 
  10. Getting my hair cut and colored for $40. I went to the Beauty School (haven't done that since I was in school myself). It didn't turn out how I planned and it took 4 hours, but it looks good, and did I mention it was a total of 40 dollars? The "Learning Leader" that was assisting the student doing my hair kept telling me the color would look "super elegant" so I let them do their thing. I typically let a hairdresser do some interpretation of what I ask for, it is more exciting that way. I have been avoiding my hair because I didn't want to spend the money (and it was gross). So this was really needed and I am happy with the results. I love a fresh haircut. 


on my way to work (don't worry mom I wasn't driving and snapping pictures at the same time. I am stopped here). Can't see much of a hair difference in this picture, but you get the idea, if you wanted an idea.
