31?

Can it be? Will I really be 31 in just 4 days? It seems impossible that 30 has just flown by. You may remember that I handled 30 pretty well. No crying or moping involved. Well, turning 31 isn't going quite so well. There's been a little crying and some moping. 31 just doesn't seem as cool as 30. 30 and I'm still young and fun and not old. 31 and I'm now actually in my 30s. In an attempt to bring myself out of this funk I've decided to make a list of 31 things that make me happy. Hopefully this will cheer me up and help me focus on all the good stuff that I have instead of the stuff I don't.
1. The world's best boyfriend. I couldn't have ever hoped to find someone so amazing.
2. A wonderful family with whom I am close.
3. Great friends, most of whom are teachers, that help me avoid insanity during the summer months.
4. Summer vacation. Enough said.
5. My wonderful dog, Gracie, and Steve's wonderful dog, Boomer.
6. A trip to Italy. (Just 11 more days!)
7. A job I love.
8. Books.
9. Homemade ice cream (is it just a Southern thing?)
10. Nachitos, chicken only, no quacamole.
11. A glass of wine.
12. Long baths.
13. Crappy summer television.
14. Air conditioning.
15. Cotton dresses.
16. A new haircut.
17. Snazzy sunglasses.
18. Sunday mornings.
19. Phone calls from someone special.
20. Catalogs in the mail.
21. Email coupons.
22. Uno.
23. NPR.
24. Naps.
25. Sweet tea.
26. BBQ sandwiches.
27. Sleeping in.
28. New school supplies.
29. Swimming in the pool.
30. Crocheting.
31. Turning 31. (In the wise words of my dad "It's better than the alternative!)
