How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Life Would Be Easier

in Uncategorized on 10/18/10

I’m sure we all wish there was world peace, no famine, cures for the worst of diseases.  You know, that pageant queen answers.  The big wishes are obvious and universal.  Today I’m just after a few subtle changes to the way the world works. That’s all I’m asking for.  Ya know, to make my life easier, cause it’s all about me. 

StarbucksI wish Starbucks delivered.  I would have a standing order.

I wish cars were bendy.  Wouldn’t it be easier to park?  Then I could squeeze my giant SUV anywhere!

I wish homework was banned on weekends.  Just sayin.

I wish toilets were self cleaning.

I wish pets didn’t shed.

I wish new boots were already broken in when you bought them.  Feet hurty.

I wish cell phones bounced.  Sigh.

That is all.  For today anyway.

What little things would you wish for?

      Great ideas!
      I wish Dirty Diapers Changed themselves…I wish doogies picked up and threw out their poop…I wish clothes was self cleaning…and that the government would pay Stay At Home Moms…

      Bouncing cell phones would be wonderful. In that case, make my camera bouncy as well.

      All of these are great!
      I wish coloring hair was as easy as polishing nails…

      Those are great wishes that I agree with you on. Well mine would be to have some thing I could go through like on the Jetsons and I would be all showed, dressed and have make-up on!

      Oh, definitely yes on the bouncing cell phones and self-cleaning toilets. Great ideas!

      I wish crackers had no carbs; yes, food is usually at the top of any of my lists.

      that my kids would stop getting sick – going on three weeks already – sucking big time! I had my feet vomited on last week!

      Oh no! I hope a cell phone didn’t get broke!

      I wish dog poop just disappeared so I didn’t have to pick it up in the yard.

      Love the bendy car idea.
      I wish my house was self cleaning.
      I wish I did not enjoy food with so many calories.

      I totally wished Starbucks delivered or that we at least had one close to my office. Although, I’m probably saving tons of money by not having one:) Also, I wish laundry folded itself & put itself away!

      Broken in boots? Perfect wish
      How about peanut butter donuts? Now there is an idea.

      Self cleaning toilets would definitely top my list.

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
