Things I Love

I think its important to have things that provide never-ending comfort during a time like this. I have been asked what people can do for me. To be honest, I dont know what I need. So, I thought I would make a list of some of my favorite things.

• Books! I love historical fiction
• Candles of all kinds
• Seahawks!!! 
• Vanilla Lattes
• M&Ms + peanut butter 
• People magazine
• Positive quotes, funny pictures/videos, Scripture
• Mac & Cheese
• Music; really any kind. Favorite genre? Coffee house style and Country
• Walks with a walking buddy
• Snail mail with encouraging words
• Mani/Pedi or feel good pampering 

I have been told there a few things that make going through chemo easier. Here is a small list. I will probably continue to add to these as I go through chemo and know more what to expect.

• Hard candies to suck on when the metallic taste destroys your mouth
• Lotion; everything gets dry
• Soft hats for when I lose my hair
• Mindless reading materials or movies/shows 
• Soft socks; knee high socks are the best 
• iTunes card for downloading material to my iPad

On my blog, I posted 100 things that make me happy. That is list is here. Maybe it will be something that might inspire you to start your own list! Its a fun task that I really enjoyed
