Rain Drops on Roses...

I'm in need of a teddy bears, rainbows, and sugar plums post...so here it goes!

These are a few of my favorite things!

1. Puppies!
Matt is allergic to puppies...and kitties...just about anything with fur. But I can't get enough of them! I learned on Wikipedia, which is of course the most reliable source on the Internet, that Westies are hypoallergenic...so they are my new obsession! I WILL be getting one.




2. Peanut Butter
I'm a huge fan of the pb...and will put it on just about anything. I don't like jelly though...and I will ONLY use JIF. I'm not sure why...but I will not budge on this issue.

3. Sun
Although I've lived in the Midwest my entire life, I am a total Southern wannabe. I thrive in the sun. It gives me so much more energy and I adore being outdoors in the warmness. I seriously think I have Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) because my mood is WAY better when it's sunny! (And what kind of acronym is SAD anyway??)

4. Days of Our Lives
I know I've mentioned my obsession a couple of times, okay...okay...tons...but it is getting really good this week people! Phillip was SHOT and is bleeding out his bullet hole in his chest....Nicole and EJ's wedding was just interrupted by Sami...and there's a chance EJ could find out that he and Sami share yet another child together...(although it's actually the child he is raising with Nicole...not the one Sami is raising)...did you make it through?? Totally lost?? Give me one episode and you'll be caught up in no time! It's been the same day for a whole week!

5. And last but not least, my bloggy friends!! I truly do not know what I would do without the support system I have found here and I am so thankful for each one of you! I have formed so many unique relationships that I would've never been able to do before and I feel so lucky to have the friends I have found here in my life.

So...

Happy Tuesday everyone! I'll be heading back to Indy tomorrow for the services...so I'll try to keep up as much as I can!

XOXO

Cute post :) I am the exact same way, I have to have JIF. Nothing else will do, and I can spot a brand switcheroo a mile away. My husband once tried to buy a different kind and trick me and I could tell after my first bite. JIF is just the best :)

There's PLENTY of puppies out there that are hypoallergenic! Not that Westies aren't adorable, but if your husband is anything like mine and detests small dogs, there's bigger ones, too! We have an Old English Sheepdog (think Shaggy dog) and he's 97% hypo. I've had NO problem with him (I'm deathly allergic to kitties and get itchy/sneezy with most dogs)! There's also the soft coated wheaton terrier (most terriers ARE hypoallergenic) and the labradoodle and basically anything else that ends in -oodle, -doodle, -schnoodle (haha, which my husband ALSO staunchly refused!) so.. there's hope!! :)

I haven't watched Days of our Lives since highschool...who is EJ?? Oh no, I think I need to start watching it again

JACKIE said...

I completely agree with you on the sun thing! It is AMAZING how much my mood approves when it's sunny and warm outside! Let's hope for lots of sunny days coming soon =) Have a safe trip to Indy.

p.s. I was/am an occasional Days watcher. But my true love was Passions..ha! I'm still bummed they took it off air! Gotta love those NBC Soaps!

Blue-Eyed Bride said...

westies are ADORABLE and have the most alert little faces! you should definitely get one!

Mrs. Buck said...

westies are so cute! Husband and I have agreed not to get a dog for probably another year or so...too much of a time commitment for us right now, but I'm totally obsessed! Thanks for the sweet post!

PreppyGirl said...

Great post! I totally relate to all of them! I HATTEEE Jelly, only peanut butter sandwiches for me! I'm dying to get a pup, not allergic but Westies are such cuties! I watch Days!! I did a whole long post on it a while back. Have a safe trip to Indy!

Shaina said...

Westies are so cute! Although there are a ton of dogs out there who are hypoallergenic. But yeah...that cute little face...who can resist?

Have a safe trip to Indy!

Dollface said...

Naturally Caffeinated Family said...

The Shabby Princess said...

Happy Tuesday!! I love Jif too!! My parents only buy Skippy, so, when I go home I go to the store and get my own PB. Westies are soooo cute!!

I'm a sun person too--I loathe the winter. I could live somewhere where it it spring/summer year round (um, an island perhaps?) and be sooo happy.

Hope you're having a good day!

Christina said...

I am obsessed with Days of our Lives! I DVR it every day!

amy (metz) walker said...

I'm LOVING that pic of the Westie...I've ALWAYS wanted one!

Ellen Mint said...

I have a weird thing with peanut butter. It comes in waves where I'll either want to devour it all the time and then suddenly want nothing to do with it for months. But yeah it can only be Jiff. Skippy and Peter Pan are just nasty.

On puppies, my parent's just got their female black lab bred so sometime in June she's going to have a cute little litter of her own. I can't wait. There's nothing like a pile of squirming lab puppies.
