13 Things That Lift My Spirits

1. A big hug from my beloved hubby or my kids
2. A tub soak complete with a good book and candles
3. Getting Flowers
4. Looking at cute pics of little kids or my own photo albums
5. A walk in light rain
6. A good worship CD
7. Blogging (you know it had to be here)
8. Giving unexpected gifts
9. Shopping for Operation Christmas Child boxes
10. Cinnamon Dolce or white chocolate Coffee
11. A good clean comedy
12. Watching hot air balloons drift by
13. A scripture just jumping out at me from God's Word

Your list would lift my spirits too! Well maybe change your #1 to it being my hubby and kids *wink*.

Happy TT!

Melissa said...

I'm with you on all of those...especially the coffee ;-) I'm constantly underlining verses in my Bible...which is fun when I find them later. And Operation Christmas Child...a GREAT ministry.

What a nice list. I love getting flowers, walks in the rain, worship CD's, love love love giving gifts. Oh heck. I love all these things too! Who on earth wouldn't? :-)

Totally with you on the soaking in the tub with a good book and candles, the Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes, and scripture jumping out at you!
Since both my kids are "young adults", we do the shoe boxes for the older age groups...it's such a blast!!
