what i love to hear...

I am so thankful that I have working ears.  I couldn't imagine not being able to hear.  Okay, I couldn't imagine being with any of my senses, but for the purpose of this blog I'm glad I have a sense of hearing.  Allow me to share with you just a few of the things I love to hear:

• kids laughing
• lawn mowers
• rain
• sincere apologies
• "I love you."
• gratitude/appreciation
• water splashing
• fire flickering
• good music
• bubble wrap
• tape
• crunching leaves
• crunching anything, really. (acorns, chips, crackers...)
• the cheers in cameron indoor stadium (Countdown to Craziness happens TOMORROW!)
• the sounds of the fair (SATURDAY!)
• a knife in a pumpkin (okay, that sound isn't that great but I'm carving my pumpkin Sunday & I wanted to keep with the weekend theme)

I don't like to hear dog whistles, bikes flying up behind me on a trail, sneezes, someone clipping or messing with their nails, bagpipes, bad brakes, sirens, and "goodbye."

...but what inspired the title of this post is what I like to hear the most:  the sound of the washing machine.  What do I like most about that?  If I hear it, it means I can stay on my tail and write this blog instead of deal with my laundry.  Unfortunately though, it just stopped.

PS- I seriously doubt anyone will notice, but I took down and deleted a few of my recent blogs.  I wrote those blogs for the purpose of being open and honest with the people in my life and for getting things off of my mind.  Now that I think the blogs have been read, they have more than served their purpose.  It's a brand new day and there's no need for my future blog readers to get to know me before getting to know me... if you know what I mean.  I'm fully convinced however that they will know my love for the fair. :)

Have a good night everyone.
