Ten Things Tuesday-- The Daily Edition

XBOX Wife Ten Things Tuesday

There are certain things I use on a daily basis that I don't want to take for granted.

1. Coffee~ Oh, how I love coffee. I consider myself a coffee snob, and I am very picky about what goes into my mug. Jason grinds fresh beans every morning at home, and if we get coffee out someplace, I get a triple (three shots of espresso) vanilla latte. I will steal this saying from a mug one of my students got me: I teach, therefore I need coffee.

2. Carmex~ I always have a tube within reach. I'm addicted. I don't even own lipstick.

3. my '98 Corolla~ My car may not be fancy, but it's reliable and gets great gas mileage. It even has all four hubcaps on right now!

4. Sonic Ice Water~ Many, many people have made fun of me for this one, but I can justify it! If you know me, you know I only drink coffee, unsweet tea, and water. I go to Sonic everyday and get a large ice water for $.44 ($.22 cents if it's happy hour!). That's half the cost of a bottle of water for about twice as much water. Plus, they load the cup with ice, so I refill my cup a time or two during the day. There, justified.

5. my Bible~ I am kind of an all-over reader, and it seems that no matter where I turn to on any given day, I am in the right spot. God is so sneaky that way! I am amazed at Him every day!

6. the computer~ I prefer the computer to the TV.

7. Yoplait Light yogurt~ my favorite flavors are lemon and banana.

8. my phone~ I used it to communicate and to organize. It's a must-have.

9. hand soap~ silly, I know, but I wash my hands A LOT, so I am thankful for soap.

10. Post-It Notes~ I carry a small journal around, but more often than not, I end up jotting down thoughts and lists on Post-its.

Hey, Trisha! Thanks for linking your last week's list!

I love the way you justified Sonic! I do the same thing, except your water is a lot healthier than my Diet Coke!

Have a great week!

Hi, Trisha! What a great list. I love how you mentioned reading your bible and wherever you begin reading on a certain day is the right spot!!! Yes, God is sneaky that way! Have a blessed week!
