100 Things I Love
About a few months ago, I wrote a quick list of things that I love to make myself feel better after a rough day. My roommate, Stephanie, took it further and wrote a list of 100 things that she loved. She challenged me to do the same thing.
Well, it's been quite awhile since that challenge, but I have finally made the list.
