A Few Of My Favorite Things

A few days ago I contemplated making a list of the things that I hate or at least annoy me. Instead, I decided to channel my energy to the positive. So I made a list of the things I love or make me happy and don't necessarily cost me money. My goal was 25, but as the day went by I kept on thinking of more and more things.
