A lovely, lovely list of yes. Although I'm pretty sure my world would explode if I turned the computer off for a whole day.
ReplyDeleteI love this!! yes is much better for the soul some days. we too often tell ourselves "no" - kind of like scolding. I think the handsome young man in Room With A View yells "Yes!" to the universe. You must see it if you haven't!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great list! Just reading it makes me happy. We *so* need to say yes to ourselves. But sometimes it isn't easy.
ReplyDeleteYes to a blog post that makes you nervous? Absolutely.
Reading this gives me such a great feeling! I think I need to start each day with a list of yes.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
I need to say more often... have a nice one!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your comments! You keep me writing!

Yes to a few extra minutes in the shower - I'm all over that.
ReplyDeleteMany a nice yes on your list... it almost mentally felt like I got to do a bunch of them by just reading :)
ReplyDeleteYes to the BACHELORETTE!!! I'm glad to know I'm not alone in that horrible guilty pleasure. What a terrific attitude comes through in this post.
ReplyDeleteOh I loved so many of the things on your list. But most of all? I loved this:
ReplyDelete"Yes to a blog post that makes you nervous to post..."
The last two weeks have been all about this to me. And I'm so so so so very happy happy happy that I have persevered despite the nerves. And I find, I most usually am.
