Using smile therapy today
My morning didn’t start well, when I awoke at 5:20am. It’s Monday, so I didn’t expect greatness. In an effort to jump out of this foul mood, I thought I’d incorporate Cin‘s Monday Morning Love List into this entry:
LOVE: The way my duvet feels against my cold skin when I pull my feet back into the warmth
LOVE: The smile that I’m always greeted with at work in the morning (Thanks Shauna!)
LOVE: It when my brother calls me up on the spur of the moment to come out for a visit, even when I can’t make it
NOT SO MUCH: Noticing that my favourite coffee shop always runs out of my favourite cookie on Monday mornings
LOVE: The smell of the misty fog and how it feels as it brushes my face as I walk to work in the morning
LOVE: That although I’m going on vacation Christmas Day, that I’ll still have time to spend with my family before I leave that evening. (Who needs a ton of turkey digesting on a long flight, anyhow, right?)
LOVE: All the awesome friends and family that visit this blog regularily and make a quick mention of the fact in the comments — It’s great to have you here!

Sounds like you guys have the fog problem too? Well, at least you love the fog–here it is a pain to drive through. My Monday list is simple: Love—-coffee first thing in the monring then hitting the sleep button on my alarm clock to pick up where I left off in my dream. But only the coffee part happens as I somehow get up to go to work. After that the love thing dies off to “not so loved” things to do.
Happy Monday T!
Love: Going to work on Monday. And every day.
Love: Seeing Aimee and Lani when I get there.
Not so much: Leaving Sunny behind when I got to spend three days with her. She is such a fun and loving dog…
Jen: Cool list! Have you got a firm date for the housecleaning?
Jay, taking Mondays off? Brat! Heheh…
Love: The cool fog, Love: Walking down Robson with the fall leaves blowing around, Love: Taking Mondays off. Sorry yours hasn’t been the best.
Love: waking up and realizing it’s one day closer to my roommate leaving.
Love: hot coffee when it’s cold and foggy
Love: looking over the misty cityscape on my way into the office
Love: no dress code and wearing cozy sweats to work, not doing my hair or putting on makeup when I don’t feel like it.
Hey T,
I always found that fog added a certain sense of mystery to your surroundings. The whole city can be seen in a different light, you focus your vision more and often see things you haven’t seen before.
LOVE: Being on ‘hiatus’ and waking up late on most days.
LOVE: Being able to walk downstairs and grabbing a free Chai and ham and cheese croissant.
Not So Much: Catastrophic hard drive failures.
Not So Much: Waking at 4:00 am to start baking at 5:00 am so I can get a free Chai and ham and cheese croissant.
Enjoy your day!

PIZZA!
