As this hot weather is kicking my chronically fatigued arse – no matter how much salt and water I have and no matter how many cans of energy drinks and jars of coffee I go through – I thought I’d write a simple list post. A positive reminder to value the simple things in life.
- Having someone kind enough to go out and buy almond milk to make me iced coffee
- Caffeine in all its wonderful forms
- Feeling alert and awake
- Cold shoulder tops and strapless dresses which don’t fall down (I might as well add unicorns and mermaids here)
- Quiet neighbours
- Friendly neighbours
- Dairy free White-Russian’s
- The ambient music on the main screen of the PS4 as it helps me concentrate more than silence
- The fact I have a laptop so my hands and neck don’t cramp up after ten minutes of typing
- Lots of natural light pouring inside
- Shade from trees outside
- Having a cool shower on a stiflingly hot day
- Cucumber sticks and humus
- Ben & Jerry’s Cookie Dough ice cream
- An appetite, clearly
- Giant bolster cushions from Ikea
- Vans and Converse trainers
- Someone to watch sci-fi, superhero and fictional detective TV shows with
- Those pretend-felt blankets from Ikea
- Gluten free beer
- Bloody Mary’s (best hangover cure, ever!)
- A strong and constant wifi signal
- Awesome people I chat to regularly on social media or through my blog
- Offers of collaborations from some lovely brands
- A partner who’s into gaming at the same level as me
- Having a terrible head for figures but knowing the value of things
- Well grilled ‘cheese on toast’ with black pepper
- Hugs
- Restful sleep
- People reading all of this list

Thank you. My life is fairly small at the moment but I’m pretty happy so I thought I’d share and see if others thought along these lines as well.

Eating a Popsicle as I read your post because it’s hot as heck in my apartment with no AC. Lol. Wonderful list. Also, I do not trust strapless dresses π

Ha, I’m so paranoid in them! We have no ac either because it’s England and flats just don’t come with it, at all π Thanks for commenting π
