10 Things That Made Me Happy This Week

Happy Friday! Today, I'm linking up with Charlotte, Lindsay, and Beth for their weekly happy and grateful list link-up.

1. Self-care bucket list item crossed off: I got a Brazilian wax for the first time, and it wasn't as scary as I thought it would be. Of course, there was pain, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, and I did feel a bit awkward at first, but quickly overcame that. In fact, my experience was actually great. My esthetician was amazing and made the experience a positive one. I can definitely understand why many people think it's worth getting a Brazilian wax. Overall, 10/10 highly recommend.

2. Dresses, especially these mini swing dresses. I've been wearing one every day, and I love it. They are incredibly comfortable. I buy a new one in a different color every time I see them.

3. A song on repeat: Mind is a Prison by Alec Benjamin

4. I picked up some books from the library, and I'm so excited to read them. I'm looking forward to reading Left of Forever by Tarah DeWitt and The Use of Photography by Annie Ernaux

5. Five Star Read: A Rebellion of Care by David Gate

6. If you ever get overwhelmed with the news, check out videos posted on Good News Movement. This video made me so happy.

7. BLTs. This has been my sandwich for the summer. It's so easy to make and so filling.

8. I'm looking forward to celebrating my wedding anniversary this weekend. 

9. I finally found Philadelphia Cream Cheese frosting, and now I want to bake all the things. I may try to make some banana bread this weekend and top it with the cream cheese.

10. A gentle reminder and good advice from Morgan Harper Nichols
