BRAINSTORMING "B"

Previous Entry: Pass The Popcorn, Please!

Recently I came across a fun little meme. By commenting, I received a letter of the alphabet for which to list ten things I love in my life that begin with that letter.

Thanks to Amy at Adventures in Being for challenging me with "B"!

1. Brownstones...Mr. Brownstone, Tornado, and Twister ~ these are the people I love best!
2. Big Cheese and JayBird...My parents are amazing!
   
3. Brat Pack...It's great to have siblings that are also your friends!
   
4. Best Friends...I have been blessed beyond measure!
5. Brethren...Our church home is awesome!
6. Barbecue...If this wasn't on the list, then I wouldn't be a true Southerner!
7. Bargains...I am NOT a full-price shopper ~ not even for groceries!
8. Books...Reading is one of the greatest adventures!
   
9. Blog Comments...I'd be lying if I said I didn't love 'em!
   
10. Bible...Last typed on the list but not last in my life by any means ~ this is the most important part of my day!
    

Let me know in the comments if you would like to play.
Hey! Comment even if you don't want to play!
Because we ALL love comments, and if you comment, I'll come and comment for you!
And if you ask me to give you a letter, a LOT of people will probably come comment because they
will want comments, too!
Like I said...we ALL love comments!

BRAINSTORMING "B"

TEN THINGS

1. I was awakened with a back rub from Twister. Seriously, can an early morning wake-up call get much better than a back rub?
2. This means that Twister woke up in a good mood and at a normal time! This is not a common occurrence.
3. We have something to which we can look forward today ~ we are having lunch at the home of some friends.
4. This means that I get a break from sandwich-making duty today!
   
5. It also means that we have friends that love us enough to feed us "just because" on a random weekday.
6. We also have something to which we can look forward tonight! We are going to see "Wizard of Oz" on stage!
7. This means that I have a very thoughtful mom that enjoys providing cultural experiences for myself, Tornado, and Twister.
8. I am excited for Mr. Brownstone because he gets to sit in a suite at a major league baseball game tonight.
9. This means that he has great camaraderie with his guy friends.
10. We also have something to which we can look forward later this week!!! We are taking Tornado and Twister to Chicago for a "Last Summer Hoorah" before school starts! Woo-Hoo!!!

TEN THINGS

1. This morning, I awoke to children's laughter. How blessed I was to have such a beautiful sound as nature's alarm clock.
2. This means that the roofing that was going on next door is now finished!
   
3. The laughter was that of Tornado and a friend. It reminded me of how extremely thankful we are for this new friend who is an answered prayer for our child.
4. Tornado and Friend have been very sweet to include Twister in every aspect of the sleepover.
5. I am very sore today, which reminds me that we had a really good, busy day yesterday.
   
6. Everyone is currently doing - without complaining - what I have asked them to do as we prepare to leave the house.
7. This means that I have enough time to sit down and make this list before leaving for the next several hours.
8. I can almost taste the donuts that will be a special treat since we have a guest this morning.
9. We have something to which we can look forward today.
10. This means that we are blessed with family near enough with whom we can spend time.

TEN THINGS

1. I was awakened with a sweet kiss from Tornado. What an awesome way to start the day!
2. Maybe that is the reason why I felt surprisingly refreshed after not getting much sleep last night.
3. My toes did not tingle much when I climbed out of bed...
4. Or when I walked out of the bedroom to find that Tornado and Twister had actually been cleaning! They had let me sleep in a little bit, and they were cleaning!
5. When I opened the pantry door, there was food available for breakfast. This is a big deal because I have not been to the grocery store in awhile. The food supply is - needless to say - dwindling...
6. Which means that the pantry, as well as the refrigerator and the freezer, are clean and organized.
7. We were able to have a nice, quiet breakfast because Bow Wow Brownstone did not bark this morning.
8. This means that we have found a solution to our bird problem! Fake snakes. Blake, Drake, Jake, Lake, and Wake Snake - of course, they had to have names if they were going to live in the backyard!
9. We have something fun to look forward to all day today...
10. Which means that I can relish the gift of having good and true friends!
