I followed the "Let's Get Real" posts about spring cleaning a couple weeks ago, but did not post my own. This time I decided to join in the fun. "Let's Get Real Monday" is kindly hosted by Randi at I Have To Say.
This week's theme: My Favorite Things. I thought about many options. My favorite things about being a stay-at-home mom; favorite books; favorite corners of my home. But, perhaps in an effort to encourage myself, I decided to post My Favorite Things About Having A Cold (which I do). Here they are, in no particular order:
- Chicken soup
- Really soft Kleenex
- When my husband rushes in the door after work and shouts up the stairs, "I'm here to take care of you!"
- How good it feels to rest my head against the back of the sofa
- How wonderful the cool air felt on my face when I went outside to get the mail
- How wonderful the warm air felt when I went back inside
- Giving myself permission to not do everything on my pre-cold to-do list
What the heck, I'll do two. Here are My Favorite Things That I Appreciate More When I Have A Cold:
- A well-behaved child
- Strong, sweet, hot tea
- Chocolate
- My sofa
- Socks
- The Internet
- The DVD player
- The remote control.
You should play along! C'mon, everybody's doing it! :)

That was hilarious!! I'm in awe of anyone that can be positive during a cold.
Your hubby call when he gets home is cute!
I hope you are on the mend and I am glad that you are still finding things to be thankful for when you are sick!

What a creative list! I always notice how much I appreciate the little things of life when I'm sick and can't enjoy them as much. XO, Jill
