Sometimes I wonder....

Do you ever think that you love something now because of a good thing that happened a long time ago? I love denim jackets. It comes from my favorite birthday memory. It was my 11th birthday. There wasn't a ton of money in my family with my mom staying home to take care of all 3 of us and my dad being enlisted in the Air Force. I bet that my 11th birthday present was on lay away for a while. I loved it. It's one of the only birthday presents I remember. In fact, now that I think about it....it's the only one I remember. Scott doesn't really understand my love for jean jackets. I try to to buy one every chance I get. He frowns when he spies me gravitating towards the rack. They have different styles and are great for fall which, coincidentally, is my favorite season. No, it's not my birthday, nor is it anytime soon. I was just hanging up jackets the other day and thought about much I love denim jackets. What do you love? Is it because of something from when you were younger? (P.S If it's a hairstyle that made you feel pretty in the 80's, don't tell me. Also, I hate to be the one to tell you, but you need to change your hairstyle.)

I love the smell of bacon and coffee and toast in the mornings and I think it is because I associate it with my grandparents' kitchen. It might also just be because those things all smell yummy, but I do associate it with them.

I do think a lot of people get stuck in a style because it is what the style was at the time in their lives when they felt the best about themselves. I am hoping I don't do that! Though, I have had the same haircut for a loooong time. May be time for a change!

I LOVE built-in-bra tanks tops and a great pair of running shoes because God (if there is one), only knows, how much I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the gym!Seriously, what would people like you and I do without weights?...... Probably not make it in this world!

Oh, and just one more thing to be SUPER Annoying....my favorite thing in the the world besides my husband and daughter, would have to be Starbucks...hands down. I am addicted for life!

I should just become a smoker again; it would probably be cheaper than buying coffee EVERY SINGLE DAY!

Fall is also my favorite season. I hate being hot, so it is always such a relief! Too bad y'all don't get fall in Texas. (insert evil laugh here.) You'll have to come visit me!

I love margaritas, it reminds me of the good times in college. Once a week a bunch of us would get together at Macayos and drink until we got silly. Damn, I need a drink!
