Favorite Things Friday

I’m sort of toying with the idea of doing this on a weekly basis.  This sharing of my favorite things.  Seems logical to do it at the end of the week.  Also, favorite starts with an “F”, just like Friday does. 

It might be fated.

Quick sidenote since we’re talking about letters: Junior got a set of magnetic letters for the fridge for Christmas, and they come with this little thing that you put the letter in, then push it and a little song comes on about that letter.  It goes: D says “duh”, a D says “duh”, every letter makes a sound and D says “duh”.  I’m not totally sold on it’s effectiveness.

Anyway – my very favorite thing today is my husband.  I’m terribly prone to bouts of anxiety, and subsequently, lunacy.  And this has been kind of a rough week on me.  D is always there to calm me down and make me feel sane.  Always.  Yesterday morning, I got a text message from him that said ”Let me count the reasons I love you” and have been getting random reasons throughout the past two days.  Everything from my “kind soul” to my “sweet guns”.  (I sort of like to flex my non-existent muscles at him.)  And those little reminders that I’ve got someone on my side no matter what has been a wonderfully soothing salve for my soul.  He’s my favorite.

He requests as much anonymity as I can give him on my blog, so I still won’t show you his face, but I will show you my second favorite part of him.

*drool*

Another soothing presence when I’m having a rough/anxious/crazy episode is the big guy up stairs.  My main man, JC.  So my second favorite thing this week is this necklace.

I love how understated and simple it is. 

Number 3 is my buffalo skull, Wally.  I’d sort of forgotten about him until I was taking pictures of the headers in our garage and he photo bombed a couple of the shots.  He’s relegated to the garage for now, but he’ll have a place of honor in the new house.

Speaking of the new house, as of next week we will be giving the bank our 60 day notice!  We’re getting very close!  Shingles are going up as I type this, and I will have lots of pics to share on Monday.

Last but not least favorite thing today is this ring!

Decor and the Dog is hosting a giveaway from Blue Soul Designs, and I entered to win but then got nervous that I might not win, and therefore wouldn’t have this ring.  So I bought it.  :)   $10!  Can you believe it???

What’s on tap for you this weekend?  Gonna buy/spend time with/wear any of your favorite things?

  1. So sweet, it’s such a blessing to have a great husband, my husband is my favorite too :) . And – I love that cross necklace! I’m going to have to check that out. Have a great weekend Amy!

  2. We have the fridge letters with the song dillymabobber. While I can’t give the device 100% credit (Daycare drills this stuff in every day), Brynn knows all of her letter sounds. Tara learned her letter sounds with the same song in pre-school. So, watch out, little man could be reading before you know it!

  3. My niece has that fridge magnet thing too so I could totally sing along while reading that. lol

    That’s so sweet of your husband with those texts!

    That cross necklace is gorgeous too. I love how different it is- not your standard cross on a chain. Great finds!
