Sitting on a dock beside a lake chatting with friends
Lemonade-Iced Tea – vodka optional
The French word for leaf – “feuille”
Sound of ocean waves
My two cats
Sharing a joke with friends that is still funny years after it was first made
the sound of my four year old’s giggles
a “butterfly kiss” from my six year old
the tingler
a crisply struck four iron
overtime playoff hockey
a sun shower
the smell of a working dairy farm
an ice cold sierra nevada pale ale
a long road trip
the end of a long road trip
someone who gets me thinking in new ways
have a great weekend!
1. I love how week after week you have tons of stuff that you love! You are such a positive person.
2. Fresh baked chocolate chip cookies.
3. Having my face touched.
4. Daydreams.
5. Jumping into bed right after a hot, hot shower.
6. Days that begin and end with laughter.
7. Chunky, natural jewelry.
8. Watching people rock out in their cars.
9. Lionel Richie. LOVE HIM! I don’t care what anyone says.
10. Crushes.
- the fact that I am still madly in love with my husband after 15 years of marriage and 19 years as a couple
- my wonderful children
- a hug from one of those wonderful children
- good friends who keep in touch
= laughing with my husband
- staying up late
- sleeping in late
Thanks for the motivation to write a love list today! I definitely needed to share the love, after the mess that was the last few days. Things are looking up! My list is on my blog.
Well, I don’t a love-list drawn up yet, but based on one of your entries I can give you a Word-Of-The-Day! The entry is “Yawny stretches” and the word is “pandiculate”! Love the sound of that word! Hmmm.. I guess that’s the beginning of my love-list, the sound of the word “pandiculate”! I think it’s because it sounds like I’m getting away with something naughty in public.

Better late than never! Mine’s more of a late in the day Saturday type of list I guess. But really, good for any day I say.
http://tentativeequinox.wordpress.com/2008/07/12/any-day-love/
These are simple, but they’re so real to me:
*my son’s giggles. He’s almost 9, but he still giggles; particularly when tickled, mercilessly
*my daughter’s smile
*the sound of my motorcycle fully warmed-up, climbing a long grade. Power. A little bit, at least. ;)
*the weightless rush of adrenaline in free-fall
*springtime in the midwest. I can still smell it
*red wine, bread, and cheese; anywhere in France
*watching my children sleep
*a genuine, eye-contact, thank you in the service industry
*pecan pie
*an ice cold, frosty mug, rootbeer float
*talking with my son, seeing where his mind wanders/connects things
*Having a good debate; with passion and fact, sans hysterical emotion
*that moment when you “get it”; whatever “it” is (not material things, but concepts)
*a meal not rushed
*anything, not rushed
That’ll do for now. There’s more, of course.
the sound of rain on a tin roof
the smell of rain on asphalt
standing in warm rain
thunder storms – lightning is an added bonus
a Jarlsberg cheese and lemon curd sandwich (weird, huh?)
a cold pineapple ring between two slices of toast (weirder?)
good manners/basic courtesies – you know, the seemingly long-lost please and thank you of a bygone era…
long, slow kisses on a lazy weekend morning
babies laughing
A few of my favorite things, in no particular order:
*my lovely bride
*Scotch
*the smell of rain
*my e-mail pals
*Twitter
*cranking through my list of To-dos
*helping other people crank through their lists
*lazy Sundays
* Sitting someplace quiet enough that you can hear the baby birds in the trees cheeping when mama brings them a worm.
* My friends’ taste in cool music I’ve never heard or long ago forgotten.
* The moment in a song when a really good band decides to drop all pretence and just kick some ass.
* A glass of house red with a good Italian lunch.
* Kids’ giggles.
(Amen to, inter alia, cafe au lait and freckles.)
