Things I'm loving right now

Posted Saturday, November 07, 2009 2:50 PM

To counteract the negativity of some of my previous posts, here's a list of what I'm loving right now:

  1. Glee.  Oh how I love you.  And how I wish we'd had a glee club at school, although being a single sex school it would've been weird.  Choir was nowhere near as cool.
  2. The nearly-summer sunshiney days we've been having.  Long may it continue, especially in the weekends - I don't care if it's rainy and cold while I'm at work.
  3. Being able to wear short sleeves again.  I always seem to have way more summery clothes than wintery clothes and I was seriously running out of things to wear (that still fit).
  4. Christmas.  I've decided to get really into it this year, with all new decorations and early present-buying (hopefully) and lots of baking.  I can't wait to finish work for the year and have 2 weeks off, filled with good food, sunshine, family and friends, maybe even some beach time if we're lucky with the weather (it may be strange to have Christmas in summer, but there's always an upside...).  I'm even looking forward to the cheesy music.
  5. Those little pots of fruit in jello that they make for kids.  I'm loving them right now.  Quite weird.
  6. Really good Indian curry from our local (but not how it makes me feel the next day).  I had totally gone off this, but was in love with it again when we ordered take-out last night.  I swear our local makes the best in the world.
  7. Pregnancy yoga, which I went to for the first time today.  And the ability to still touch my toes!

What's everyone else loving right now?

Our concert and show choirs were like Glee (not necessarily the up-to-date music) with the choreography and such . . . Glee makes me miss those choir days.

And I absolutely HEART Christmas shopping and decorating.  I always go Dec. 26 and get new decorations for the next year on super sale to build my supplies.  Poor

DH hates when I start pulling boxes down from the attic.

Positive lists are fun :) LOL negative ones are too, but there's more cheer to be had from building up a happy list. How is pregnancy yoga going? I've wanted to try it but haven't officially gotten into it yet.

We had a show choir in school too and it was so much fun, though I don't watch Glee so I dunno if it's like that.  Also, I too love Christmas - I bought some Christmas decor already b/c we had to get rid of our (fake) tree when we moved, so I have to make it up somehow and I'm itching to start decorating.  My tradition (from growing up) is to do it the day after Thanksgiving.

The pregnancy yoga is more about relaxation than yoga per se, and is tailored to suit heavily pregnant women so everyone in the class can do all the moves.  I was hoping it would be 'real yoga' slightly modified, but I still think it is still worthwhile getting some enforced relaxation time and stretching once a week.

I'm loving that I can wear baggier and more "concealing" clothes because it's cool outside - wearing tank tops in this time of swollen blubbery pregnancy was getting my confidence way down.
