Friend Makin Mondays

I found a really fun thing to do on Mondays at My Chihuahua Bites. Andrea does a FMM post on Mondays...that is Friend Making Mondays and it's hosted by Kelsey at All That Is Good. Each week Kelsey introduces a topic that you write about on your own blog, link back to her blog, and then you add you name to her Mr. Linky! It's that easy and lots of fun!! So, here's my first Friend Making Monday post:


Top 10 Things I that I absolutely Can't (or at least wouldn't want to) Live Without and Why:


(Note: You all already know that I could NOT live without God, my family, and my wonderful friends...so, here are some other things that I absolutely CAN NOT live without ☺)





1. Starbucks is my drug of choice. I definitely fall in the Starbucks addict category and I've got my Gold Card to prove it. ☺






2. Books are one of my top favorite things. What a dull, boring, black and white world this would be without books. I told a friend the other day that I'm such a daydreamer and books give me something to daydream about. They fuel my imagination. They're educational. They're an escape from reality when you need them to be. I love books!





3. iPhone...hello! What did I do without this device? I mean what other thing can you talk, text, e-mail, look up a recipe, watch a movie, listen to music, check the weather, read USA Today, check your facebook page, post a Twitter, get directions, check your movie cue on Netflix, find a restaurant, make a list, post a blog, read a book, play a game, and surf the internet on? That's really just scratching the surface of all the things it's capable of. I ♥ my iPhone.





4. Bare Minerals is the best make-up. I'm not big on heavy foundation or heavy make-up period, so this is definitely the make-up for me! Plus, it's super quick and I only have about 20 minutes to myself in the mornings to fix my hair and put on make-up.



5. Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey is my favorite lipstick. I've worn it since I was 16 years old. If they ever quit making it, I don't know what I'll do. It goes on so smooth and it's the perfect shade. It goes with almost everything. Love it!





6. Twilight/Edward...I know this may sound crazy, but now that I know about Edward, I wouldn't want to live without him. I think Stephenie Meyer is one of the coolest people on earth. Her dreams and imagination are what brought Edward and Bella into existence. I'm a hopeless romantic, and so the idea that the impossible love is possible after all...well, I think it's wonderful.





7. Coach is one of my guilty pleasures. I only buy a couple a year, but I'm crazy about Coach. The purses are way cute and they can last forever! I always tell my hubby that it's actually a wise investment. I'm not sure he buys into that, but he humors me at least.






8. Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shampoo is my favorite shampoo. I have skin issues and this shampoo makes all the difference in the world! Plus, it makes my scalp feel all tingly. I like that.







9. Blogger. It's become such a big part of my life. I love blogging. I love reading blogs.





10. Gossip magazines. I like to know what my friends in Hollywood are up to. It's fun to see them in real life situations. I do feel sorry for them at times. I wouldn't want my life to be so public. They're so gosh darn entertaining. They're like my treat at the grocery store. I can't leave without one...or two.

Go on over to Kelsey's blog and make some new friends at Friend Making Monday!

Great list. I can so relate to Starbucks, iPhone, and books!

SimplyBillie said...

Great list!! I have a Q - You said you have skin issues - do you mean breakouts and such? Does the bare minerals help with that? I've been having skin problems since having baby.... Grr!

Mrs. Goddard said...

I loved reading your list! I am from Jenks! It is fun to meet new friends through blogging. Your blog is too cute!

Great post!

Did you notice that something has been missing from your blog? It might have appeared around the time I stopped commenting? I’m sorry about all that. I took a little hiatus from the blogosphere, but I couldn’t stay away too long. After a break, I had to come by again and see what you’ve been up to.

Glad that I did.

PS: Thanks for the birthday love!

Leanna said...

K, of COURSE I knew about the Starbucks! There were several others I already knew too...Twilight, Blogger & books....I wish I had an iPhone!! Good list!

Kelli said...

I love to read as well...it keeps me sharp and is so relaxing. And I would love an iphone. That my be my next splurge. Great list...nice meeting you.

wife.mom.nurse said...

I loved hearing about what makes you tick ")

Dawn said...

Oh, I love a lot of the same things: coffee, reading, blogging, and MY iPHONE!! I even sleep with my phone! LOL!

Fun list!

Impulsive Addict said...

It's eerie how similar we are! (Eerie is spelled correctly b/c I checked it with my iphone dictionary app)

I would only have to disagree with number 1 and number 8. I HATE coffee and anything that tastes similar to it. I think I would rather drink urine than have to drink coffee every day. Are you ok? Did you have a heart attack? I know we're still friends b/c you love me anyway.

BTW..I have moved on to the number 2 song by Toby Mac. I loved it except for that opera shiz at the end. Ah...now my Joey is singin' to me.

Moving on..
