The Little Things

This post is created in partnership with o.b.® tampons and Socialstars however all thoughts and opinions are my own #OBelievers

When life gets too crazy it’s always a good idea to think about the little things. The little things are those that make us happy, brighten our day, and make us stop to appreciate life more.

Today I want to share my favorite little things in life…

The-Little-Things

Binge watching shows with my husband. Recently we’ve been watching Making a Murderer which is not a light fluffy show. But I love cuddling up in bed or on the couch and just enjoying something together. It’s somewhat rare that Andrew and I discover something we both really like.

Movie dates with my mom. Award season is my favorite because it means lots of movie dates with my mom. We love seeing all the nominated films. So far we’ve seen The Big Short and Joy. Next on our list is Spotlight, Concussion, Brooklyn and Carol.

Phone chats with my best friend. My best friend Ashley and I always have pretty epic phone chats. I’m just leaving that there.

Discovering the book I am reading is a “can’t put this book down” kind of book.

Discovering a product that makes my life 10 times easier. As a busy girl finding products that are small and easy are of utmost importance. I have been using o.b.® tampons and I love them for so many reasons. Every woman’s body is different. That’s why o.b.® tampons are designed to help stop leaks by expanding all-around to fit each unique shape. Fluid-Lock® grooves for locked-in leak protection. The only one with SilkTouch™ cover for ultimate comfort and protection. I love how compact they are too! Like I said, they just make life easier!

The first sip of coffee on a day that you REALLY need it! No explanation needed here.

The timing of a perfectly quotable movie line. For instance, when someone asks you to describe your perfect date and you respond with “April 25th.” Or if someone tells you to do something and you respond with “I’m right on top of that, Rose.” Either you get it or you don’t 🙂

This is just a reminder to take a minute out of every day to appreciate the little things.

What is one of your favorite “little things?”

    Amen to the coffee!! My husband and I used to binge watch House back before we had kids, now with three little ones we are more in the My Little Ponies and Transformer Rescue Bots bingers 🙂 Honestly, I am thankful for Netflix and no commercials! Love o.b. as well, they saved me on my 2 week kayak trip in college…it was a requirement.

    I love my coffee and look forward to it every morning. I also love when I get to meet a girlfriend out in the middle of the day for coffee too. My husband and I like to binge watch Aarow on Netflix. Its the best and we love our time together watching it.

    My favorite little thing is being able to text my friend Shirley and know that no matter what, she’s got my back even though we’re so far apart, distance wise.

    LOL @ “I’m right on top of that, Rose!” I haven’t thought about that movie in AGES!

    I’ll have to check out Murderer show–have heard so many great things! Funny, I just wrote about my love of Netflix binging on the blog today, too!

    I really want to see Joy. I love that you and your mom have date nights! I’m going to take a page out of your book and invite my mom to a date night, too 🙂

    Awesome post! I would have to agree with you that the first sip of coffee in the morning is the BEST! Another one of my favorite little things is to watch my kids be kind to one another. It makes this mommy’s heart swell up a bit.

    Awesome! The little things are usually the best ones. That show is next on my list once our trial of Showtime is over. It’s pretty creepy since I live in WI and can remember when all that stuff happened.
