10 Things That Made Me Happy This Week // It’s Fall Edition

10 Things That Made Me Happy This Week // It’s Fall Edition

Reflecting on the little things each week. // dreams-etc.com

1 // Cooler weather–it started off hot, but cooled off!

2 // Sleep. I had a cold, and I definitely needed some extra sleep this week. It felt good!

3 // Not feeling bad about it. Since I got some extra sleep I am feeling a little behind on a few things, but I don’t feel bad at all.

4 // The week went well! There were a few things I was a little anxious about when the week started, but everything went well.

5 // Vacation planning. I’m starting to think about my return to Colombia!

6 // And I might have something else in the works… 🙂

7 // Little One. Do I need a specific reason to add her to this list?

8 // Green smoothies. I drink one every day, but this week I’ve been happier about them than usual.

9 // Veggies in general. They’re what I want to eat!

10 // New hair! A new cut and color.

// Inspired by Krysten, Lindsay and Charlotte.

    I was just thinking that I have not had enough veggies in my diet lately and I’m feeling really sluggish I think because of it. I’m excited to start eating healthier again (lots of fast foods and grabbing things on the go lately for me. No bueno!). I can’t wait to hear about your return trip to Colombia and am excited to hear about this news 🙂 XOXO hope you have a great weekend!

      Yes! I always notice such a difference in how I feel when I don’t eat as many veggies.

      My return trip won’t be until next spring, but I do have another trip coming up that I’ll be able to talk about soon. 🙂

    Minaaaaa! Of course you never ever need an excuse or reason to put your girl on any list. 😉

    Don’t you just love how a hair cut and Color makes you feel like a million bucks?! I always feel so refreshed!! I’m trying to decide what the heck to do with my hair, I get bored so easily lol.

    Your vacation plans leave me dreaming of the future, too….

    I hope you have a wonderful weekend my dear. 😉

    xoxo
